Just 32 miles off the SoCal west coast is Santa Catalina Island. If you didn't know any better, you could swear your 70 minute boat ride brought you to the other side of the world to explore a Greek Island. Such is the vibe you'll get on Catalina, with no shortage of things to do from hiking, museums, gardens, restuarants, shopping, beaches, ziplining, backcountry tours, snorkeling, scuba diving or exploring on your own in rented golf carts and e-bikes. Let's explore all there is to do here on our own little slice of the Mediterranean.
