There are few places quite like Catalina Island in California. The beach playground for all budgets and interests allows you to tour throughout the day, partake of sports such as the new zipline, or simply chill out on this beautiful escape of an island. One such adventure that is unique provides you and your guests a private cabana you can reserve with oceanfront cocktail and food service. This is the only such place in California with this type of amenity. It is ideal for parties, privacy, and special events.
Descanso Beach is the place it happens, and the restaurant, rentals and beach access are collectively called the Descanso Beach Club. Ideal for anyone who values their privacy, or their service will find this is well worth the $125-150 spent on a pleasurable day at the beach.
Getting there: Take the boat to Catalina, then walk over past the Avalon Ballroom to the beach. Catalina Flyer in Newport Beach has tour combos you can purchase online. If you prefer a departure from Long Beach and seek a greater schedule line-up of boat trips throughout the day, go with the Catalina Express.
