Bail Bonds for Avalon Jail Detainees

24-Hour Bail Bondsman in Avalon City

Avalon Jail is not your normal correctional facility. Located on Catalina Island, it was originally built in 1920 as a solitary confinement facility with room for only one inmate. However, despite its small size, it has become a central part of law enforcement for Catalina Island and the waters separating it from the California mainland.

Given its small size and staff, detainees are only kept in the jail for a few hours until they’re transferred to the mainland. Whenever possible, detainees or their family members need to call a bail bondsman in Avalon as quickly as possible so they can post bail before transfer. Dan's Bail Bonds is available 24 hours a day to expedite posting bail so you or your loved one is free as soon as possible.

Since 2000, Dan has provided a level of personal care and world-class service unprecedented in the Southern California bail bonds industry. As a result, his clients have been able to enjoy the dignity and security of their own homes while navigating the criminal justice system.

Call Dan at (888) 773-8037 at any time to get started, or reach out online.

Avalon Jail’s History

In 1915, the City of Avalon established an ordinance that banned disorderly conduct, drunkenness, and vagrancy on Catalina Island. However, there was no way to enforce these rules, as there was no jail on the island. The city built a jail in 1919 and established the Avalon Jail in 1920. They soon expanded the jail to four cells to accommodate the growing number of inmates.

Despite its small size, Avalon Jail has seen its fair share of prisoners throughout the years. During the prohibition, smugglers and bootleggers were held at the jail. During World War II, Avalon Jail was temporarily converted into a prison for housing convicts.

Avalon Jail Today

Avalon Jail is still in operation with only one full-time staff member. The Avalon Sheriff’s Station oversees the jail and ensures the safety and security of the island. Authorities mainly use the jail to hold short-term prisoners, including those awaiting trial or transfer to a larger correctional facility on the mainland.

Today, the jail accommodates 130 male and female inmates in dormitory-style bunk beds. It offers religious services, outdoor recreation, educational seminars, and vocational training.

Each dormitory unit holds inmates to a daily cleaning schedule, which is necessary for keeping the facility clean and hygienic given its minimal staff. The facility has a medical unit, making sure that inmates have access to medical professionals and treatments when needed.
