![Channel Islands #NationalPark doesn't get as many crowds as the others. We were the only ones on the entire island when we camped here. The Springtime is the best time to visit to see some beautiful wildflowers. Bring your scuba gear because the kelp forest is amazing; there's another world to explore down there!  And earplugs if you're planning to sleep there. #hiking  #weekendgetaway](https://images.trvl-media.com/place/6212/2abee6d8-b62a-4b08-97b8-5c0502331426.jpg?impolicy=fcrop&w=1040&h=580&q=mediumHigh)
