Sailing Vessel Triteia - Snorkeling at Little Scorpion Anchorage on Santa Cruz Island
April 02, 2018 by Sailing Triteia | Language: EN Play Time: 00:28:06 | SAILING YOUTUBERS
| Season 2 | Episode 22 |
On this episode I awoke at Pelican Bay after a perfect night on the hook and watch dolphins and a humpback whale pass by the anchorage as I prepare to leave.
I made my way over to Little Scorpion and dropped the hook for the night, after which I went snorkeling and exploring the sea caves and rocks surrounding the anchorage.

The last week of 2017 I took an amazing solo sailing trip to the Channel Islands. I visit six anchorages on Santa Cruz Island before sailing for Catalina Island and tying up in Isthmus Cove for New Years Eve. We sailed back on New Years Day enjoying sunshine, great wind and thousands of dolphins.
While I was on my trip I started my first podcast and the first episode is up online now. The podcast is titled “A STERN VIEW” and is something of a cruising guide to anchorages and sailing destinations. Each episode is recorded on location and I cover everything I know about the anchorage from my research and experience at the anchorage.
I also kept a journal in my logbook and will be posting them as a blog with still photos. This will act as support to the A STERN VIEW podcast as will each new video episode that features the anchorage covered in the podcast episodes.
The journal and Podcast can be seen and heard here: http://svtriteia.com
My main go to guidebook for this trip was “Cruising Guide to Southern California’s Offshore Islands: With Sailing Directions for the Santa Barbara Channel’s Mainland Coast” by Brian Fagen which can be found here : http://amzn.to/2HOxAU1
