One of California's most romantic weekend get aways!

Just off the coast of Southern California is an island that is covered with lush forests. Catalina has secluded coves surrounded by ocean with abundant sea life. Catalina has exceptionally clear waters and a wide variety of colorful marine life. Within just a few miles of Avalon, you can see a sea lion colony, thriving kelp forests, and schools of flying fish. Those who venture farther down the island's coast are rewarded with isolated beaches, idyllic coves, and rugged cliffs. Some are lucky enough to see buffalo and mule deer on the hillsides, and bald eagles crossing the sky. Whales, dolphin, flying fish and sea lions can also be spotted from the boats.

Your visit to Catalina will begin with a ferry ride. Ferry service is available at five locations along along a 70-mile stretch of the Pacific Coast. Ferry service is offered from the heart of the Los Angeles area in Marina del Rey to 60 miles north of San Diego at Dana Point. The departure points from North to South are: Marina del Rey, San Pedro, Long Beach, Newport Beach, Dana Point. Choose the departure point that's best for you, and book your ferry tickets early to be sure you can get to Catalina when you want to travel! Then choose from a variety of tours and activities! We offer bus tours, boat tours and cruises, snorkeling, whale watching, dolphin tours, glass bottom boat tours, submarine tours, walking tours, and more.

Catalina Island is a wilderness preserved for all to enjoy, but it has the hotels, restaurants, sightseeing tours, and recreational activities of a modern resort. It's a special place that every visitor to Southern California should see.
