This lithographic map art print by Chris Robitaille of Xplorer Maps features a hand-drawn pen and ink/watercolor illustration of Santa Catalina Island, located 29 miles off the coast of Los Angeles, California. The map highlights the island’s unique scenery, diverse wildlife, and popular adventure spots within its 76 square miles.

Santa Catalina, once home to the Pimu Tongva people, later saw ownership changes from Spain to Mexico, and finally the United States. Its history is reflected in the many Spanish names across the island. The island's two main towns, Two Harbors in the north and Avalon in the south, are connected by the Trans Catalina Trail, a favorite among hikers and backpackers. Along the trail, visitors discover stunning beaches like Descanso Bay, Parson’s Landing, and Lovers Cove.

In addition to its famous beaches, the map highlights landmarks like the Wrigley Memorial, Casino at Descanso Bay, and Airport in the Sky. Catalina’s biodiversity is celebrated, featuring marine life such as blue whales, sea lions, and flying fish, as well as land animals like bison and the Catalina Island fox.

The lithograph measures 24” wide by 18” tall unframed.
