We are arriving in LA (San Pedro) on the Coral Princess April 20. WE will have our luggage to deal with! We can't use the Express luggage feature on the ship as we are Canadian. We will not be renting a car.

Questions-

Is there somewhere we can store luggage nearby? Does it cost anything?

Hotel nearby that will store for the day?

Interested in going to Catalina Island maybe- How do we get there from the cruise ship dock?

How long will it take to get to the ferry?

How long is the ferry ride?

Are the ferries frequent on a Saturday?

How far is it to LAX? I understand that it can be up to an hour's trip with traffic.

We have a 9:40pm flight so have to be at the airport 3 hours early(approx 6:30pm) Would we have enough time to explore Catalina Island between 11am and 5pm?

 

Any other suggestions for our day in San Pedro?

 

Is there a public bus that would get us to LAX from San Pedro port?

Are there transfer services available at the port rather than prebooking a service? (I know the ship offers transfers for $24/pp but we don't want to sit in LAX for 10 hours!)

Sorry I am asking so many questions but we leave Toronto on Saturday and I don't have a lot of time to do research-only booked the trip Monday!!

The Catalina Express leaves from under the Vincent Thomas bridge, very close to the cruise terminal. It's and easy walk. However, the number of trips per day are few except on the weekend. Check the schedule at CatalinaExpress.com

Loved your wonderful pictures. You have a great camera. I have a good one, but I am going to take my tripod on our next cruise.

Thanks very much,

Sandy:)
