The Most Romantic Things To Do On Catalina

There are romantic islands all over the world, but one of the most special ones is just a short boat ride off the coast of Southern California. Since the 1920s, Catalina has been known for its potential for Hollywood-style romance. Movies have been made here, and love songs have been written about Catalina. There are plenty of romance-inspiring activities all over Catalina Island. Whether you prefer fine dining or the great outdoors, ocean views or sea exploration, you’ll find lots of options to enjoy with your loved one. Read on to learn about 9 of the most romantic things to do on Catalina.

 

1.)    Catalina is for Lovers. Lover’s Cove is close to downtown Avalon’s main street--just one cove over from where the ferry boats dock. Because it’s a State Marine Conservation Area, the waters around Lover’s Cove are absolutely pristine—ideal for spotting all kinds of ocean life. Once you enter the water, you can explore kelp forests and reefs, which showcase some of the coolest sea life around. Need a ride to this romantic cove? Call Catalina Taxi and Tours at 310-510-0025 to get you to one of the best spots to snorkel.

2.)    Celebrate your love. Are you planning to propose on Catalina? We know the perfect spot to get down on one knee. Catalina Taxi and Tours offers the Toast to Catalina option, complete with a bottle of bubbly or red or white wine. This private Jeep tour can bring you and your loved one all through the lesser-traveled interior of the island. Take in majestic views of the ocean as well as the more rugged windward side of the island. All of this natural beauty is so romantic. Even if you’re not ready to pop the question, the Toast to Catalina tour is perfect for a day date on the island.

 

3.)    Star Gaze. Because of its position—more than 20 miles away from the city lights of Los Angeles—Catalina is fortunate to have some of the darkest night skies in Southern California. This makes the island the perfect place to spend time under the night sky with your loved one, picking out your favorite constellations. Some of the best places to fully enjoy life with less light pollution are Catalina’s camp grounds. You can book a shuttle with Catalina and Taxi and Tours, and they’ll bring you to a campground like Blackjack or Little Harbor where you can count the stars from the comfort of your romantic camp site.

 

4.)    Pack a picnic for two. Take a ride in an open Jeep, and take in tons of fresh air and gorgeous views of the island’s interior. Catalina Taxi and Tours will take you close to where the wildlife livesall the way to Haypress Park. On your tour, you can make a special stop at the Summit Overlook to get a great view of Avalon. Café Metropole can cater this day date for you; they’ll provide your choice of freshly made sandwiches for your picnic.

5.)    Go out on the town. You can walk up and down the main streets of Avalon quite easily, but you can really get to know this little city by going on a private tour of the city. A guide from Catalina Taxi and Tours can take you around, telling you all about the culture and history of Avalon. Need to know a romantic restaurant for dinner?
