I assume they're still working out the breaking (by the looks of the testing). Leg 2 looked like it hurt.

@TheEvanCole LOL...i went with my sister...it was her birthday too when we went.

@jainish007 Mine is an unlimited (Best of the Best) package. I.E. Para-sailing, rock wall, golf (full course) and mini golf, free golf cart to drive around, scuba diving, submarine, zipline tour, Anything you could think to do, one of the Best hotel's & room in hotel on the island including all travel for 2. $300/day not including shopping. $750 is a GREAT price. But It's my girlfriends (of 5 years) B-day the day we leave and had to pull out all the stops. Shopping included about $2500 a day :(

@TheEvanCole well i calculated $740 total cost for 3 days 2 night including travel fare, hotel cost, one skyline tour, parasailing and some other small activities and shopping for 2 people

@jainish007 Maybe just alittle. The package is 300 a night. I mean for Catalina that's expensive but when you think a normal hotel (not on the island) is almost double a night if not triple that price, its a steel.  But either way was just throwing out that there are ways to get the price reduced.

[jainish007]

@TheEvanCole well I'm assuming that it should be quite expensive...

[TheEvanCole]

@jainish007 Really depends on what you get with this actually. I bought a unlimited package from the Avalon hotel and it included one ride free and a second one at half price. Also almost everything on the island free or half off. And 50$ credit towards dinner each night at the Avalons bar and grill
