“Man cannot discover new oceans unless he has the courage to lose sight of the shore.”— Andre Gide
National Parks are treasures for all to enjoy. Since 1872 the United States National Park System has grown from a single, public reservation called Yellowstone National Park to include 418 natural, historical, recreational, and cultural areas throughout the United States, its territories, and island possessions.
In 1938 the Santa Barbara and Anacapa islands were designated a national monument. San Miguel, Santa Rosa and Santa Cruz islands were combined with the monument in 1980 to form modern-day
Channel Islands National Park.
