Family Day Trip To Catalina Island!

Come along with us on a fun-filled day trip to Catalina Island! We started our adventure by hopping on the Catalina Flyer and arriving ready for some sunshine and adventure. We stopped at the playground near the port to get some wiggles out, then headed to Sailor’s for ice cream before walking to the Beach Club for a splash in the water. Before heading back, we made sure to stop at The Lobster Trap for some delicious fish tacos — the perfect way to end the day. Such a fun and easy getaway with unforgettable memories!

* tickets for the Catalina flyer can Currently be found on Groupon at a great rate.
