Welcome to Fox Landing

Tucked inside the protection of Long Point just 5 miles from Avalon, Fox Landing is the perfect place for exploring the ocean. This vibrant facility sits in a private cove facing the mainland of California. Although only 26 miles off the coast of Los Angeles, it will feel like a whole other world!

How do you deal with a severe food allergy?

We deal with food allergies every day. Our kitchen staff have all gone through ServSafe training and take great care to safely accommodate all food allergies. If you have specific concerns, the best course of action is to communicate your school’s lead teacher prior to your trip. The earlier we know about severe food allergies, the better we can serve an individual’s specific needs.
