![]() ![]() I was also given a Hiking Catalina Map for free. The admission is normally $7.00 for adults. First up was complimentary admission to the Wrigley Memorial & Botanic Garden. I was treated to a couple birthday goodies upon my arrival. The first stop I made on my adorable beach cruise was the Catalina Island Conservancy. I went with the beach cruiser and headed out with my map in head to explore more of Catalina Island! Beach cruiser, tandem bike, mountain bike, and electric bike. I headed to Brown’s Bike were the birthday treat was you and a companion pay for two hours of bike rentals and get the rest of the day FREE. A bit more of an exercise and a great way to explore the beautiful island. Golf cart or bike rental were my options? I figured bike rental was the way to go. With a belly full from lunch and my free coffee, I decided it was time to get some exercise in. Using my handy dandy birthday list I opted for Ben’s Bakery where my birthday lunch was half off! With a full priced purchase of one salad or sandwich the birthday person gets their lunch time sandwich or salad for half price. The birthday treat here is one complimentary cup of 12oz gourmet coffee or tea, up to a $3.00 value and birthday person must be wearing their birthday pin. I started my day by visiting Catalina Coffee and Cookie Co. I mean the island does have the nickname the “ Birthday Island“. I basically went around the island getting as many birthday deals as I could and I’m going to be sharing them with you. Also if you’re wearing your birthday pin a lot of places will give you discounts. (Image below.) This way you can go around getting all the birthday discounts and freebies. If you’re the birthday boy or girl make sure you print out a copy of island birthday deals. (You must travel together.) And the birthday boy or girl must begin travel on their actual birthday, but can return anytime within 30 days of the departure date. The Catalina Express offers a free ferry ride to and from Catalina, on your birthday! To get the free trip a full priced ticket must be purchased by another member of your group. We opted to visit Avalon, which is roughly 1 square mile of city!ĭisclaimer: Unfortunately starting in 2018 the Catalina Express will no longer be offering this birthday promotion. Or the more rugged village of Twin Harbors, to the north, with a population of 400. Either the city to the south known as Avalon, which has less than 4,000 residents. The boat can drop you off at one of the two communities on Catalina Island. The ferry takes about an hour, depending on water and weather conditions. You can take a ferry to the island from a variety of location in Southern California including Long Beach, Newport Beach, San Pedro, and Dana Point. Looking for a memorable way to celebrate your birthday? Want to have a day where you’ll feel special, get free stuff, and have an epic birthday story?!?!
