Excerpt from The Land of Sunshine: An Illustrated Monthly Descriptive of Southern California; June November, 1894 A few miles south of Santa Monica is Redondo, a popular resort which has been built up during the past five years. Here is a wharf where much shipping business is carried on, a pavilion and a fine hotel. There is also a pebble beach. San Pedro is the leading port of Los Angeles county, and has not hitherto been much frequented as a pleasure resort. On the other side of the bay is Terminal Island, which is reached by the Terminal Railway Company. Here there is a fine beach and a pavilion has been built. Catalina Island, twenty miles off the coast, has grown to be a very popular resort during the past few years. It is reached regularly by steamships. There is clear, still water, where the finest of fishing may be had. The mountains are high, afford ing pasturage for a large number of wild goats. Catalina is rich in Indian relics.
