Island Trips

Thanks to generous support and our partnerships with The Nature Conservancy and UC Reserve System (UCSB), Lulapin is happy to host trips to limuw (Santa Cruz Island) for members of the Chumash communities. We’ll share 2026 dates with you as soon as we’ve established them.

Being together is important, but being together on limuw is taniwašǝ’ǝ’ǝtš (supreme.) Lulapin is building and delivering our land-based education program with a focus on traditional life-ways, history, language, food-ways and more.

Each trip is designed for 15 Chumash community members for 3 day/2 night stays at the UCReserve at nimatlala (the center of limuw.) Ferry service and meals are provided.

Please keep visiting our website and socials to learn of this years (2026) trips. We will get the dates out for your consideration as early as possible so you have plenty of time to plan.
