Get ready for an incredible day at Toyon Bay with the Catalina Island Marine Institute (CIMI). You’ll have the chance to make a real difference through rewarding restoration work while exploring the island’s stunning natural beauty. We are planning to install a new native planting in the courtyard and weed and water the plantings we installed at the beginning of this year. The plants will be provided by the Catalina Island Conservancy. We can’t wait for you to be part of this unique journey!

What Makes This Trip Extraordinary?

We will spend a full day at the Catalina Island Marine Institute (CIMI). Located in a beautiful cove just a few miles from Avalon, although only 26 miles off the coast of Los Angeles, it will feel like a whole other world!
