Amazing place with private beach getting there was confusing initially but I figured it out, So I want to share my experience. We took the shuttle from the Catalina Conservatory you need a reservation and it fills up fast. So book asap. Let the driver know you want to stop at Black Jack junction next to the bench. You will see two roads one with a gate and locks; that's the correct one. It goes down use that one and follow it to the right when you get to they Y if you go left you will get lost. We found a nice man that gave us a ride into Whites landing after hiking only 1 mile but I heard it's 3 miles. Bring your own towel they are not provided. And free breakfast was delicious. The staff is amazing. Hike to the cross. Beautiful views.
