Catalinas Island, North
★★★★☆
(617)
Catalinas Island, North is the perfect site for beginners, sheltered from the main currents. North is located 11km from Flamingo on the East coast of the island. The dive is from the middle of the Island to the North point.
This North is more famous for its tranquility than for its fauna. But you can still meet a multitude of reef fish. If you are a little luckier, you can see rays and sharks there.
