Experience
Avalon Day Trip
The island town, the easy way
Avalon harbor & the Casino
Catalina's only real town is a tiled, golf-cart-filled pocket of old California — and the best way to arrive is on your own boat, not shoulder-to-shoulder on the ferry. We handle the channel crossing while you settle in, then drop you into Avalon with the whole day ahead: wander the harbor front, ride a golf cart up to the lookouts, tour the historic Casino, grab lunch by the water, and snorkel protected Lover's Cove if the mood strikes. When you're ready, we cruise you home along the coast.

“So much better than fighting the ferry crowds. We had Avalon when we wanted it and quiet water when we needed a break.”
