Adventure with Purpose
When you think of Catalina Island, do you picture scenic trails, rare wildlife and opportunities to explore a landscape where adventure and conservation come together?
A membership with the Catalina Island Conservancy provides unparalleled access to outdoor adventures that connect you to Catalina’s wildlands and support its preservation. The Catalina Island Conservancy protects and manages 88% of the Island, including the region’s longest stretch of publicly accessible, undeveloped coastline.
As a research and conservation leader, the Conservancy works to regenerate vulnerable habitats, restore native plants and protect rare species like the Catalina Island fox, which is found nowhere else on Earth.
