Catalina Island Outback Tour & Beach Picnic (Little Harbor Trip)
This is Catalina’s best kept secret, it’s where the locals go on their day off!
Get away from Avalon’s crowds and enjoy the quiet beauty of Catalina Island’s outback – where the buffalo roam. Your journey departs from our booth at the Avalon boat landing at 10am. The 16 mile drive provides amazing views and photo opportunities beginning with the summit road. This 3 mile winding stretch of road is lined with majestic eucalyptus trees and takes you from sea level to almost 1500 feet in about 10 minutes. The ocean view is spectacular as we continue along the top of the Island to the Airport-in-the-Sky’s Nature Center. We’ll make a brief stop here then drop down the other side of Catalina Island towards Little Harbor Beach. Little Harbor is a local favorite and one of the Catalina’s most beautiful beaches. We provide a picnic lunch, use of kayaks, beach chairs and umbrellas for your island style day off. Kayak, hike, beach comb, read or make it up as you go, this is your day.
The drive back to Avalon follows a different route through the Middle of Catalina Island. Middle Canyon is truly a beautiful canyon, it is home to the island’s fresh water reservoir and Pimu, the resident bald eagle who we will stop to visit. After a day at the beach and driving “the loop”, you will have seen the best of Catalina Island and return to Avalon with a new appreciation of our Island Home. This trip will be the highlight of your Catalina Island vacation.
2 person minimum, gratuity not included
Departs daily by reservation at 10am, approximately one hour drive each way
10 - 4 $139.00 per person (approximately 3 hours at beach)
