[Bgsa] camping/snorkeling Catalina Island

[Mandy Banet]

Hey everyone!

Anyone interested in taking a few days off  sometime around the  
weekend of September 13th/14th to go camping/snorkeling on Catalina  
Island?  I'm thinking about staying at a campground ($12 per person/ 
night) near the town of Avalon, which would be within walking distance  
of a couple of good places beach-entry places for snorkeling.  One of  
them, called Lover's Cove is not really deep, and is supposed to be a  
really good place for beginning snorkelers.  You can also reach some  
(not too dense) kelp forests from the beach.  Online, it looked like  
you can rent snorkeling equipment including a wetsuit for about $20 a  
day.  The most expensive thing is the ferry ride, which is about $66  
round trip.

Let me know if you're interested!
