Jeep Eco Tours
Catalina Island’s only full-custom tour allows you to explore
the area via an open-air vehicle.
Trained guides take you to back roads to find beautiful beaches,
broad valleys, isolated coves and 2,000-foot-high hills. Drivers
explain why scientists and naturalists consider the island an ecological
treasure. While skirting the island’s rugged coastline, participants
might see wildlife that includes bald eagles. Also in view: the
shy Santa Catalina Island Fox and the Beechey Ground Squirrel, both
endemic. Rare plants, some unique to the island, and historical
and archaeological sites going back almost 7,000 years are also
among the sights. Prices vary with three options ranging from a
three-hour, non-chartered tour for $98 to a private, full-day tour
for up to six people, snacks included, for $795. The non-profit
Catalina Island Conservancy operates the tours and profits go to
a good cause: helping to preserve Catalina Island for future generations.
