Santa Cruz Island Scorpion Ranch Campground, Coastal campground on Santa Cruz Island, California.
The Scorpion Ranch Campground spans across a protected valley near the eastern shore of Santa Cruz Island, with thirty individual sites and one group site.
The campground occupies land that functioned as an agricultural ranch during the 1800s, when European settlers established farming operations on Santa Cruz Island.
Rangers conduct regular educational programs about the Chumash Native Americans who inhabited the island for thousands of years before European contact.
Visitors must bring all camping supplies, reserve spots in advance, and arrange boat transportation through Island Packers company to reach the campground.
The location provides opportunities to observe the Santa Cruz Island fox, which exists only on this specific island within the Channel Islands archipelago.
