we took a tour of avalon via golf cart and one of the best treats was the visit to the wrigley memorial and botanical gardens

we drove around and around for 3 hours and saw the gardens, the casino, divers diving, kayakers kayaking, cute houses, luxurious pads and eucalyptus groves to die for. i highly recommend a golf cart drive when visiting avalon

the folks who live here are soooo dang lucky, i just can't say enough about how lovely our winter trip to catalina was. if you are ever in the los angeles area, forget the city and take a fast boat to santa catalina for a real treat. for all you locals, forget about that expensive trip to the mediterranean and check out avalon in the winter, best and cheapest time to go and well worth it!

  1. Oh. my! Beautiful! Looks like you had a wonderful trip! We made the Catalina trip every summer when we were still on the West coast! Miss it but have a painting of it hanging where I can see it every morning!
    Last trip with the kids (just before we moved to Nova Scotia) we did the sub tour... so fun!
    Thanks for sharing your trip. Makes me homesick but fun to see everything well on the island!
