The beautiful and unique Wrigley Memorial and Gardens nestled into Avalon Canyon is a memorable stop for any guest to the island. In keeping with our desire to make this accessible to as many people as possible, we are now offering a new senior (55 years and up) reduced admission rate of only $3.00 per person. In addition, for the month of Sept, families with young children will find savings here as well. For every paid adult admission, two free children under 18 will be admitted at no charge. Come rediscover the beautiful, relaxing experience of the Wrigley Gardens and the spectacular Memorial itself.....many folks remark that the views from the Memorial tower are the best views in Avalon!

Nature Center at Avalon Canyon - Opened on “Earth Day,” April 22, 2006, The new Nature Center at Avalon Canyon is an informative gateway for all those who are on their way to the Island’s interior. For those who limit their adventures to the city limits of Avalon, the Conservancy hopes the Center may entice them to stay a little longer, and to one day, take a walk on Catalina’s wild side.
