About Potato Harbor Overlook
The view looking out over Potato Harbor Potato Harbor shows exactly why this harbor received its name since its oval shape resembles that of a potato. From the overlook you also have a magnificent view to the west and the rest of Santa Cruz Island. Within this ocean realm below one may be able to see or hear California sea lions. These playful animals are often spotted just to the west of Potato Harbor, hauled-out on the rocks. Sea lions, along with a variety of other marine species, depend upon the extensive kelp forests that can be found around Santa Cruz Island and the other Channel Islands. *There is no beach access to Potato Harbor. The cliffs surrounding the harbor are steep and dangerous. (Santa Cruz Island, California, USA)
