On that tour, we were the only ones signed up, which meant that we went in a pick-up truck. We didn't know what to expect being just us and the guide. We were very pleasantly surprised. Our guide knew just about everything there is to know about the Island. His love for the island was really shining through. There were... More

My husband and I recently went on the full-day Outback tour with tour guide and local legend, Chip Upton. Chip was born on Catalina Island and had all kinds of great stories about growing up on the island, both historical and humorous! He took us all over the interior of the island and we made a stop by the Airport... More

Epic day with the Wet Spot cast. Very fun, adventurous, and educational (tour by a 3rd gen local). This was the best day on the island. We recommend this for families, couples, or solo adventures!!

My daughter and I booked a full day outback tour this past week, and I am so glad we did. We were excited to find that we were the only people booked that day, so it was me and my daughter and Cindy (our tour guide) and her daughter. Cindy grew up on the island, and thus was able to... More

We booked a land tour and because no one else booked this tour we had a private tour with myself, my husband and our tour guide: Cindy. The tour was absolutely excellent. Cindy is a local from the area and took us around most of the island. We stopped at unusual places along the coast and in the interior of... More

Great guide, inside stories from a third generation Avalon native. Highly recommended. Nice to be in a van rather than in the wind and dust of the open air vehicles.

If you don't want to read further this sums it up: Best time to be had on Catalina Island. I surprised my girl with a trip to Catalina on her B-day, and decided for an overnight stay to be able to get more out of the island. Chip, 3rd generation islander and owner of Wet Spot rentals took us on... More

My wife and I are seasoned world travellors and seldom go on arranged tours because the "cookie-cutter/one trip fits all" approach just isn't for us. Normally, after some advance research, we land in a location, grab the public transportation and get out and explore. Realistically, that is a bit hard to do on Catalina for several reasons: some roads have... More
