Celebrate your birthday at Catalina Island

Disclosure: We received complimentary hotel accommodations, some meals, tours and transportation while visiting Catalina Island. However all opinions expressed here are our own.

It is the luck of he Irish. My husband's birthday is on Saint Patrick's Day, and we were lucky enough to find out about the great deals available at Catalina Island when you visit on your birthday day. It was not only a less crowded time, because most people only thinks about visiting during the summer, but we also got great deals on food and tours.
