I spent the day of New Year’s Eve with some friends kayaking around Santa Cruz Island, which is part of The Channel Islands, off the coast of Southern California. After warming up and setting up camp for the night, 3 of us went to seek a good view of the sunset. We heard it was great at Potato Harbor, and after a bit of debate, we picked a trail towards it and headed that way. The last few days had seen a lot of fog in the area, and we were never sure what sort of visibility we’d get, but we went for it anyway. As you’ll be able to see in these pictures, we were quite glad that we made the effort.

About half a mile from the Potato Harbor Overlook, the fog rolled in and we didn't think we'd see much
Boy were we wrong - the sunset was perfect - I loved the light on the rocks on the right
The fog rolled back in quickly and the view didn't last too long.
We were treated to a crystal clear night once the sun went down
