California's Gold with Huell Howser

Santa Rosa Island

Season 7 Episode 711

The Chumash called it Wimal. To Conquistador Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo it was San Lucas. Today it is known as Santa Rosa, and its 54,000 acres of open land 24 miles off the coast of Santa Barbara is the newest addition to Channel Islands National Park. Huell visits this remote place on an adventure that reveals not only the Island’s natural wonders, but it’s continuing rich human history as well.
