The Nightlife on Catalina



     The island remains active during the night because of the romantic and elegant atmosphere.  It is nice to walk around because you get to see the island from a different perspective.  On most nights, the sky is very clear and there have been many times when my family has seen shooting stars.  The beach has usually cleared out and most people are getting ready for the night festivities to begin.  Many people are getting ready to go out to dinner or may be making a meal from their home. There are two Vons grocery stores on the island.  The casino (which is a movie theater and never was used for gambling) has lights lit around it and the boardwalk remains active as well because of the bars.  When I went to Catalina this past year, I was twenty-one.  I went into Luau Larry's, played pool at the Marlin Club,drank and danced at the Chi Chi Club, and sang karaoke at El Galleon.  I had a blast and was happy not having to worry about who the designated driver would be.  The condo my family stays at, Bahia Vista, is only about a ten minute walk away.  On my trip, I enjoyed a couple of Buffalo Milks, which is a drink served only on Catalina Island.
