Two hours through Avalon's landmarks, history and resident life

A private guided golf cart tour of Avalon on Catalina Island with a local guide in English or Spanish, covering Pebbly Beach, the Casino building, the pet cemetery, botanical gardens and lookout points over Bell Tower Road. Pickup is included. The tour runs 2 hours and is limited to one group per departure time.

Step-by-step itinerary

Guided golf cart tour of Avalon

  • Visit Pebbly Beach
  • See the Inn at Mt. Ada and three palms
  • Explore the pet cemetery
  • Walk through Memorial and Botanical Gardens
  • View lookout points over Bell Tower Road
  • Tour the Casino building
  • Feed fish at Casino Point Dive Park
  • Visit Marine Preserve
  • Peek at Avalon Diving History Exhibit

The experience

What makes sense to see first when you land in Avalon? A local guide who knows the island's history and where residents actually spend their time. The tour covers the landmarks most visitors find on their own: Pebbly Beach, the world-famous Casino building (with a look at the diving history exhibit), the Inn at Mt. Ada, the three palms, but also the pet cemetery and the botanical gardens, plus lookout points over Bell Tower Road that frame how the town sits on the water. You'll feed the fish at Casino Point Dive Park and Marine Preserve, a detail that matters because it's the kind of thing a map doesn't tell you to do.

The cart does the legwork. Two hours is long enough to move through the main sights without rushing, short enough to leave the rest of your day open. Pickup is arranged in advance, so you don't navigate to a meeting point on an unfamiliar island. Bottled water comes with you. The guide speaks English or Spanish and can answer questions about how people actually live here, not just what happened in 1920.

What’s included

  • Private transportation in a golf cart.
  • bottled water.
  • landing and facility fees.
