If you mean the northern channel islands, I don't know much about the diving available from shore. I've been to Santa Cruz Island a few times on the boats of friends, and it seems like the Yellow Banks area is a good bet, with huge kelp beds. I just don't know whether there are trails or camping areas hearby.
They have a bunch of new Marine Protected Areas around parts of those islands, so be sure you check where they are so you don't run afoul of the law.
