Catalina Express is the best way to travel in style to the lovely resort locale of Catalina Island, which is home to the picturesque oceanfront towns of Avalon and Two Harbors. The passenger ferry service has been offering daily excursions since 1981, operating a full fleet of eight high-speed luxury vessels today. Up to 30 trips are offered per day during the ferry's peak season, embarking from Dana Point Harbor, Long Beach, and San Pedro. In all, more than one million passengers travel aboard the fleet each year, making it one of the region's most trusted methods of transportation. All trips last approximately one hour, showcasing the region's scenic Pacific coastline while traveling. For an additional fee, passengers can upgrade to luxury accommodations within several boats' Commodore and Captain's Lounges.
