The Trip Over:
Departure Time: 7:30 AM from Dana Point
We leave early, and take a maximum of 30 passengers (our capacity is 49). On the way over, we take our time and do as much whale watching as possible. A straight passage is usually about 2 1/2 to 3 hours, but we allow extra time so we can search for the mighty Blue Whales and pods of dolphin that love to play in the 'Channel' between Catalina and Dana Point.

With the extra time we allow, we can veer off to come close to these magnificent animals and spend time with them. We might even see some of the schools of flying fish that are only seen around the Island.

Arrival At Avalon, Catalina
There are so many things to do in Avalon. We loved walking to the Botanical gardens, snorkeling, the glass bottom boat rides, renting bikes or golf carts or just relaxing. There's plenty of shopping, a tour of the historical casino, great ice cream and lovely restaurant cafes where you can just sit and watch the world go by, feeling as if you've been transported back in time to some charming European oceanside village.

The Journey Home to Dana Point
Depart Catalina at approximately 3:30
We'll head hme and look for Blue Whales, Minke Whales, Fin Whales and Dolphins on our journey.

Cost: $119 per person
