TravelWorld International's Fall 2026 issue spotlights Catalina Island as a year-round coastal getaway just 22 miles off the Los Angeles coast. The piece highlights Avalon's walkable charm and Art Deco landmarks, the island's protected conservancy land (88% of Catalina), and its packed calendar of events — from the Catalina Channel Crossing and Catalina Film Festival in September to JazzTrax, the Catalina Island Conservancy Ball, and the Catalina Pride Celebration. The article also touches on Catalina's pop-culture ties, including its role in novels by Michael Connelly and the film "Ironwood" (2026).
