About Us

Born and raised on Catalina Island,
we have owned and operated Wet Spot Rentals since 1991. Over those 30 years we have grown the business both in Avalon and at Little Harbor and helped thousands of Catalina Island visitors create lasting Island memories.

This year, we are stepping away from the Avalon location and will be focusing solely on Little Harbor. In addition to kayak rentals, we have added camp chairs and boogie boards to our Little Harbor rental roster and look forward to helping campers make the most of their time at Little Harbor Campground.

Focusing on Little Harbor, we hope to slow down the pace and enjoy more Island time. We have added some new items to the rental roster and look forward to helping campers make the most of their time at Little Harbor Campground.

Little Harbor Campers can expect the same great service, the only change is the name; we are now Little Harbor Kayaks.

See you at the beach!

We are happy to say Wet Spot Rentals Avalon will stay in the family; it has been acquired by our son and
daughter in law. We have no doubt they will be amazing owner operators. We wish them much success and
another 30 years of summer fun.
