Factor seclusion into the mix at these surf-and-sand getaways
Point Bennett
Pods of bottlenose dolphins vault through the air as your boat approaches San Miguel in the Channel Islands National Park, better known as North America’s Galapagos. Point Bennett, at the westernmost tip, is as far from Southern California freeway-culture as you can get. In addition to seasonally pupped pinnipeds (seals and sea lions), the islands are home to 145 uniquely evolved species. Don't miss a splurge-worthy dinner at San Ysidro Ranch’s Stonehouse (www.sanysidroranch.com), a former citrus warehouse and site of the hotel where Jackie and JFK honeymooned.
