Las Catalinas made a tremendous impression on a theater full of charitable Atlantans this week: Actress Jane Fonda was hosting a premiere for her new movie, Peace, Love & Misunderstanding, as a benefit for the organization she champions, G-CAPP (Georgia Campaign for Adolescent Pregnancy ...
Last week I had the pleasure of making a 5 day mountain bike trip out of Las Catalinas with some of my friends. I've said it before but I'll say it even more emphatically now - this is such a great area for exploring! We rode one day in Las Catalinas on our singletrack; one day a big backcountry ...
A group of prospective Las Catalinas owners and friends headed out Saturday for a sailing outing offshore of Las Catalinas on the Hibiscus catamaran. It was a beautiful afternoon, with one of the biggest swells we have had around here in a long time. I always enjoy introducing our guests to some of ...
The Pura Vida Ride building and shop looks fabulous, I must say. The structure borrows much from the typical local architecture of a "pulperia", a corner store, including the doorway on the angled corner of the building. There are fresh air vents on top, no air conditioning, and a tree growing ...

What did you do this morning? I rode on the new mountain bike trail at Las Catalinas. I was so excited to do it that I started my ride in the dark at about 4:30 this morning, with a headlight. It was fantastic! Our first bike trail building efforts last year were not quite perfect, but our guys ...
OK, at long last I have retrieved some video from our dolphin encounter last month. This is good! Be sure to turn up the sound and listen - the dolphins' echo-location chirping was a very nice part of the experience!
Our ace trail building crews have created a new hiking trail through the central high peaks of Las Catalinas.
