Things to do in Catalina Island this Christmas and New Year’s Eve

What are your plans for this Christmas? If you have not yet decided on your Christmas plans yet, better plan a visit to Santa Catalina Islands, as it will be a rewarding experience for you. Below is how to make the most of your time in Catalina Island this time of the year.

The No-Snow Carol

Some of us often want to go with a snowless Christmas. It is good idea to get away from all the glittery gamut, and making merry on an island would be an entirely different experience. Californians do not need to look much far, as the oceans have a host in Santa Catalina Island that offers cultural pleasures, sporty activities, and a chance to communicate with Mother Nature.

Catalina Island boasts of all these three elements. The island is just a boat ride away from South California, and it would be a great option to celebrate a no-snow Christmas at Catalina Island.

The 44th Annual New Year’s Eve Celebration

Catalina Island offers an elegant black-tie dinner and dancing event for the tourists on the New Year’s Eve. Coat and tie are mandatory to attend the event, although a black tie is optional.
