Day Trips from Orange County - Catalina Island
Catalina Island is one of the eight islands that makes up the Channel Islands archipelao.g
Located 26.2 miles off the coast, Catalina Island is a great day trip.
You can jump on the boat in the morning. Enjoy a day on the sand, shopping or in the interior of the island observing the wild life, and still be back in time for dinner.
Getting around Avalon, Catalina's main town. Is easy. It's a mile square, and everything is in easy walking distance. This lovely little town feels like a small mediterranean village.
If you want to get around the hills behind town, you can rent a golf cart.
Wondering what else there is to enjoy on Catalina Island? Try a glass bottom boat, parasailing, kayaking, snorkeling, biking or indulge at a spa.
If you decide that one day is just not enough to enjoy all that Catalina has to offer, spend a night or two in one of many hotels and bed and breakfasts offered by the Island.
If you've never been to Catalina Island, be sure to take a day or a weekend to see all that this lovely place has to offer.
If you think that a day or two on Catalina isn't enough, you might consider buying one of the lovely homes available.

Christine: Catalina Island sound very lovely. It is hard to believe that such places exist to close to the hustle and bustle of the mainland and Los Angeles. Sounds like heaven to me. I'd really love to see more pictures, videos and more. Thanks so much for sharing. "Suggested."
Christine ... well done! I enjoyed the travelogue ... and missed the sales pitch to the very end! You're good!
I haven't been to Catalina in years, maybe it is time to plan a trip! Thanks for the post, Christine.
That is a great day trip for those of us in Southern California. Need to go again soon.
Karen Anne - I do have a lot more photos of Catalina. Maybe I'll go back and add a slideshow in the next day or so. Thanks for the suggestion.
Jack - Thanks. It really is a lovely place.
Laurie - It's so close. Take a day, and go enjoy.
It's time to plan a trip to Catalina Island! Thanks for sharing the great pictures.
Coleen - Bring the kids, and let's go.
