I thought about that, but it seems it is not practical. >>
Here is why:>>
Catalina Express does not accept/transport kayaks. >>
The kayak must go on a freight barge. No idea of the cost.>>
So, you pay to the Express for going over and back, separate for the kayak.>>
>>
Barge docks at an area south of Pebbly Beach. Unless you want to get into the water there, you must hire a taxi capable of transporting a yak to the town. I have not seen one yet.>>
>>
Take the taxi from the Mole to the barge. Load up the kayak and bring it to town.>>
>>
Then reverse all of that for departure.>>
Take the kayak to the barge then take the taxi to the Mole. >>
Renting one there is an easier choice. $50.00 for a full day. $35.00 I/2 day. I was planning to do that when I heard of threshers and leopard sharks around. It was too windy and I was too tired.>>
>>
Next time I am on the island, I will do that first while I am fresh and rested.>>
