Description: Catalina Express offers year-round service to Catalina Island for over 44 years, with up to 30 departures daily. The fast, sleek, smooth-riding boats whisk passengers to Catalina in about an hour. Catalina Express operates from ports in San Pedro, Long Beach and Dana Point. For filming, the San Pedro terminal is the ideal location during the winter months. The San Pedro facility can be rented on Tuesdays and Thursdays as the terminal has no departures during those days in the winter. Long Beach terminal allows for minimal filming as this location sees significant traffic throughout the year. The Catalina Express fleet consists of eight high-speed vessels including four large catamarans and four monohulls. Known for its sleek lines, the Catalina Express fleet has an unparalleled track record of reliability and safety in taking passengers to and from Catalina Island. All eight vessels have high speed ride control systems operated by onboard computers for a fast smooth ride. Each vessel offers inside cabin seating, outside upper deck seating, full bar, refreshments and snacks. Catalina Express’ fleet boasts environmentally sensitive engines which reduce nitrogen oxide emissions and diesel particulate and are quieter and more fuel efficient. The vessels can be rented for filming depending on the season. Please contacting Catalina Express Marketing to learn more about filming in our terminals or onboard one of the vessels.
