Make the most out of your time in Los Angeles by going on a scenic day trip to the nearby Catalina Island. No need to book a taxi to get to the port, as hotel transfers are included, as well as ferry tickets. Once at the island, explore its incredible views in a unique and exhilarating way—on an eco-zipline course. Rise above the Descanso Canyon floor and learn about the island’s diverse nature and wildlife at the same time.
Soak up vistas of the sprawling Southern California coast on your smooth 1-hour ride to the island.
Located 22 miles (35 km) off the coast, Catalina Island (formally Santa Catalina Island) is a world away from the hustle and bustle of the mainland, a picture-perfect destination full of charming beaches, palm trees and rolling hills.
