Description: Each year, the Chumash community crosses from Channel Islands Harbor to Limuw (Santa Cruz Island) in a 17.2-mile journey. In October, 2015, 25 "pullers" rotated into the six-person tomol, a traditionally-built plank canoe of indigenous Chumash design. Channel Islands National Marine Sanctuary was honored to provide journey support with the research vessel Shearwater. Photo Credit: Robert Schwemmer/NOAA
