One of the best kept secrets of Southern California is that we have a little island just an hour away! Catalina Island is one of my favorite spots and it’s hard to believe I only visited for the first time a few years ago. I love that whenever I’m there, I always feel like I’m somewhere remote. The small island town of Avalon has a calming and laid-back character and it’s one of those places you just can’t wait to get back to.
When Vineyard Vines asked me if I wanted to spend the day on Catalina with a few other bloggers, I jumped at the chance. Besides the obvious {island!}, I was also looking forward to going because Vineyard Vines is a brand I’ve watched grow over the past few years. I remember going to a blog conference and seeing their cute samples. Even then, I knew they’d be sold all over the place. Read on to see my day trip to Catalina.
