Catalina Islands CA

Have you ever wondered what it's like to stay on Catalina Island, CA?

How many times have you thought about escaping the mainland altogether and spending some time enjoying life on a paradise island? What would you say if I could show you how to do it much closer, and very much cheaper than you thought it would be?

Santa Catalina Island, located 22 Miles west of Los Angeles, is America's greatest island retreat, and best kept vacation secret.

Catalina is wonderfully unique in that it is the perfect distance away from the mainland. It is close enough that you can get there by a one-hour ferry ride, but also far enough away to feel totally separated from the mainland altogether, giving you the full experience of a tropical resort isolated in the middle of the Pacific.

There is one major resort town, the City of Avalon, where you will arrive by any commercial water route. Once there, the Island has 76 square miles of adventure in every form waiting for you, from mountain climbing to scuba diving, all within easy reach of your luxury accommodations.

Avalon is a city that was literally created for the lone purpose of being an exotic tourist destination. Even now, over a hundred years later, the beautiful city still excels at this vision. There are no office buildings there; no government buildings, no people employed for any reason other than the tourism trade, and the supporting industries (like groceries and utilities) that are needed to support the town. This makes the entire island an ideal paradise retreat for escaping the problems we face in our modern world.
