You can here a clicking sound from the schools of little silver fish, all flicking against the water in unison. This is a 90 minutes activity that should bring you closer to the lunch hour, if you are not still full from breakfast. The trip to Catalina was fun and exciting seeing a fin whale, a minke whale and lots of dolphin.
Day four: Explore Anaheim & see the fireworks from a rooftop bar
Or for a cheaper option for families, Adventure City is great for younger kiddos and parents who want a break from big park prices. With 17 rides, a petting zoo and interactive shows, little ones will love it. You don’t want to have to spend $25 on a Genie+ Pass for all three days, if you’re strategic enough then having it just for the first day could work, but we used it for the first two days and then the third day was much more chill. Renting a car does give you more freedom to explore beyond Anaheim though, if you wanted to do a day trip or just hit the road and see where it takes you. There’s a direct Amtrak train from LA’s Union Station for $16 which takes 29 minutes and runs every two hours, or the FlixBus 2017 route will take you from Union Station to Anaheim Regional Transportation Center in 57 minutes.

End the Day at a Romantic Dinner
On a Pacific Coast cruise, just south of Los Angeles, you’ll discover a tiny slice of paradise. Natural conservation and ecological tourism is a huge motivator for Catalina Island cruise visitors hoping to find time in the great outdoors. Vehicles are largely restricted on the island, so cycling and hiking are incredibly popular for residents. Watch the boats float peacefully in the harbor at Green Pleasure Pier, then head inland to the Catalina Island Museum, where you’ll discover the history of the island from thousands of years ago to today. With crystal clear water and a unique underwater eco-system, the island’s marine adventures are plentiful. Take a glass-bottom boat tour or a semi-sub to see things up close without getting wet, or dive right in with a snorkelling or scuba diving trip in marine reserves and dive parks.

After arriving at the island, you’ll have around 4 to 5 hours to go ashore and eat, explore, and enjoy the many delights of Catalina. Nearly 40 miles of trails, from Catalina Island’s Avalon to the Two Harbors, comprise the stunning Trans Catalina trail. Even hopping on the trail for a few hours during your stop on a Catalina Island cruise will leave you feeling more connected to nature than ever. Here, you’ll enjoy the captivating island landscape that few other places on Catalina Island can boast.
Budget | National Garden Grove, Magnolia Tree Hotel and Pacific Inn are all very affordable options for your week in Anaheim. If you’re in LA and are planning on catching an Uber or Lyft to Anaheim you can expect to spend between $40 and $80 one way depending on traffic and surge pricing. If you participate in this activity shortly after Scuba Diving, just be aware that you have to have on regular clothes. Maybe having a single non-alcoholic drink at the Descanso Bar might give your bathing suit a chance to dry out.

Channel your inner Marissa Cooper (for my fellow mid-2000s teens) and soak up the sun along the Orange County coast, with a day trip to places like Newport Beach, Laguna Beach and Huntington Beach. Other restaurants with great cocktails include Mix Mix, 18 Folds and Urbana Anaheim. This vibrant hub of food and drink is set in a historic citrus packing warehouse, with sit-down restaurants, cafes, bars and food stalls lining a communal dining area in the middle of the building. There’s something for every taste and budget, from gourmet grilled cheese sandwiches to the Tiktok-famous floating ramen to bubble tea margaritas and sweet treats like macarons and ice pops.
It's your holiday, so grab your swimsuit and towel and find a spot on the soft sand at Descanso Beach. It's the only beach where you can legally drink on the island, so you can order your ice-cold treat of choice from the nearby beach club, then dig your toes in the sand as you soak up the view. They explain everything, the wet suits really do keep you warm, and buoyant. There are beautiful things to see right at the edge of the shore. The bright orange fish come right up to you, and the guide has fish food if you want to be brave and let them swarm you.

My (now) husband and I had only been dating for a few short months when I bought him this cruise as a surprise for his birthday.
The main deck is fully enclosed for climate control while large windows on both sides provide plenty of viewing angles on our cruise to Catalina Island by boat. Bench seats with fun surfboard tables and a lounge area are perfect for those wanting to enjoy refreshments. Her spacious observation deck is perfect for whale watching during your Catalina Island cruise by giving you an elevated look at the animals. For your comfort, there is ample cushioned bench seating and it’s partially covered for protection from the elements.
You’ll take another small boat from the cruise ship to the shoreline of Ensenada. The Catalina Island and Ensenada, Mexico Carnival Cruise is one of the most affordable cruises and vacation options out there! Beer drinkers are in luck too, the city has a thriving craft beer scene to dive into. Brewheim Brewery, Unsung Brewery Company, Bottle Logic and JT Schmid’s are all top-rated options.
To start your day, drink coffee at home, take any Dramamine that you may need, and then line up for the boat at your port of choice. You will be able to have drinks on the boat, but you should wait. They also serve really lame snacks, but I would save my appetite for the island. Eat local Mexican cuisine – During our time in Ensenada, my mom and I had an incredible lunch featuring fresh oysters, steamed clams, abalone pasta and a panna cotta to finish. Lounge by the pool – If you want to just chill, then enjoy lounging by the ship’s main pool. If there’s too many kids around, you can head over to the 21 and over area for a more serene environment.
There’s a casino onboard and you’ll get to play your favorite table games and maybe even win a jackpot on the slots. The shops onboard feature souvenirs, fine jewelry, cosmetics, liquors, accessories and more! They have lots of sales and promos going on all the time, so make sure you drop by a few times.
