2.5-Hour Safari Island Adventure Tour on Catalina Island

The Safari Island Adventure is a game changer when visiting the interior of Catalina Island. Climb into an open air safari vehicle for a 2.5-hour ten-mile guided eco-expedition from the boat landing area through the charming town of Avalon and on to the interior gates leading to the outback areas and coastal canyons. With late morning or mid-afternoon departures to choose from, journey up the tree lined "old stage coach road" from sea level to an elevation of 1602 feet. Featuring picturesque scenery, your bumpy transport makes its way through rugged terrain, venturing to Gallagher's Canyon, Swain's Canyon and coastline areas such as "Smugglers" and "Rippers" Cove. With over 80% of Catalina Island preserved as home to the buffalo, Channel Island fox, ravens and bald eagles, these wild inhabitants roam free making every chance encounters with them throughout this trip an exciting bonus. On clear days, enjoy the 360 degree panoramic views at the world famous Airport in the Sky. Stroll through the outdoor Nature Center, indulge on a buffalo burger and to-die-for "killer" cookies, or select your special Catalina Island keepsake from the DC-3 Gifts and Grill before re-boarding your safari ride to continue your exploration back into town.
