Things To Do On Catalina Island

Catalina Activities #1: Two Harbors

Looking to reconnect with nature, with someone special or a big group of friends? Two Harbors offers plenty of outdoor activities on Catalina Island. Set sail on one of our chartered yachts from Marina Del Rey to experience the serene camping grounds of Two Harbors. If glamping is more your style, you can spend the day hiking the mountains and the evening in the yacht on the waters of the peaceful Pacific.

Catalina Activities #2: Avalon

If you’re looking to get away from the city but don’t want to get lost in nature, Avalon is the place for you. And getting to Avalon has never been easier or more stylish. Coast into Avalon on one of our chartered yachts or fly above it all on one of our chartered helicopters leaving from Long Beach. Avalon boasts a lively ambiance full of food and fun things to do on Catalina Island.

Avalon offers the perfect blend of the natural world on both land and sea as well as small city life.

Explore the Island on a Golf Cart

Allow wanderlust to take the wheel while you explore Catalina on a private golf cart from Cartopia Cart Rentals. Since so few cars are allowed on the island, a golf cart is the chosen mode of transportation. You can rent four-and-six-person golf carts and explore the amazing panoramic views of Catalina Island and Bay.

Rent a Cabana

Plan the bash of the year or an intimate gathering in your own private cabana. Descanso Beach Club has private cabanas for rent as well as a pristine, private beach complete with chaise lounges and a fully stocked bar. It’s also the only beachside restaurant on Catalina Island.

Take a Dinner Break

In addition to all of the fun activities on Catalina Island, this tiny island has great food! Fuel the romance with an oyster dinner looking over Avalon Bay at Bluewater Grill. A favorite in Avalon, Bluewater Avalon Restaurant serves sustainable seafood from mussels to swordfish.

Not in the mood for fish? Try out another Avalon favorite — Steve's Steakhouse. They exclusively serve premium midwestern corn-fed beef, seared to perfection. Pair your steak with the perfect glass of wine from their extensive wine list.

More Fun in the Sun

Flawlessly transition from the quaint city to breathtaking outdoor adventures in Avalon with these experiences:

  • Spot some bison in their natural habitat on an H1 Hummer tour.
  • Become a certified scuba diver off the Catalina coast.
  • Zipline through the eucalyptus trees and over the beach for stunning ocean views.
