Rated one of the best campgrounds in the West by Sunset Magazine, Little Harbor Campground offers a chance to camp on a secluded beach on Catalina Island’s remote “backside,” and it’s only accessible by hiking or biking, keeping crowds away. This protected cove is perfect for snorkeling, scuba diving, and sunbathing. Campsites vary from beachfront spots with ocean views to more sheltered areas with tree cover. While amenities include potable water, picnic tables, fire pits, and outdoor showers, there’s no electricity and bad cell service. The Catalina Island Conservancy offers gear haul services, so campers can have essentials like firewood, ice, and even a stocked cooler delivered. You can top off your water bottles at this campground for the climb up and out of Little Harbor. Reservations are required, with minimum stay requirements on weekends and holidays.
