only had taken one of the tours on Day 1 (i.e. sea or land tour) plan
to take the other tour on the second day. In addition depending on the
land tour plan on taking the second land tour (i.e. if only had taken
bus up to airport check out safari like tour that goes deep into the
Catalina interior) Hike up to the Zane Grey hotel and the house at Mt.
Ada.  For those interested in snorkeling there are many snorkeling
opportunities at Lover's Cove, the Green Pleasure Pier or Descanso
Beach.  Be sure to check out shopping at the Metropole square. Explore
the many spa and massage opportunities available in Avalon.

DAY 3

For those looking adventure a parasailing trip might provide some
excitment. If offered check to see if boat tours offering sightings of
whales, dolphins and Catalina's coast are available. THey depart just
south of the the main boat terminal but may only be offered on select
days. During the summer safari buses depart for the Two Harbors on the
other side of the island.  Rent a boat and do your own guided tour of
Avalon Bay and the coast lines of Catalina Island.
