About Us:

As part of the Santa Monica Mountain Range, the Chumash Indian Museum is surrounded with the natural beauty of lush meadows, large oak groves and native vegetation. 

A variety of fowl and wildlife can be seen throughout the 432 acre park.  Unique landscapes and rock formations as well as Chumash sites can be observed within the park.

Hiking is allowed within certain restricted areas, and all visitors must  abide by the center's regulations and guidelines.

Dogs are not allowed in order to protect wildlife. 

Due to extreme fire hazards, fires and smoking in the park are strictly forbidden.

There is no camping in the park.  Bicycles and motorized vehicles are not allowed.

Our Gift Shop is open to the public (with or without museum admission).

The Gift Shop features traditional Native American handcrafted artifacts

and crafts including one-of -a-kind jewelry.  An array of books related to the Chumash people and their

culture are available. The Gift Shop accepts Visa & Mastercard.
