Catalina express provides a safe and affordable way to get to Catalina.Our whole party had fun in one of their inexpensive lounges.Great company I would recommend any one of their vessels.

Catalina express is a high speed ferry that departs from three different ports to catalina island.
There are only two companies that make trips to catalina island, catalina express is a little more pricey than the other one, but has many more sailing times.Seating is comfortable, only two bags allowed on board- they also serve light snacks and drinks. Average ticket is $63 for adult round trip. You can contact their customer service to get a group rate.
Overall it did the job that we wanted it to do. they were very helpful in setting up a late sailing time for our guest to get back to the mainland. I would recommend them if you need to get a large party of people onto the island.

Everyone was able to get all lugage onboard and have a nice trip to the island. No fuss
