Camp Cherry Valley is a summer camp on the leeward side of Catalina Island, California, which is owned and operated by the Greater Los Angeles Area Council of the Boy Scouts of America. It is located two coves north of Two Harbors at Cherry Cove. The camp, valley and cove get their name from the Catalina cherry trees native to the island.

To reach the camp, Scouts take a two-hour chartered ferry across the channel, a 22-mile distance from San Pedro or Long Beach to Two Harbors and then hike 1.3 miles to the camp. During the summer the calm waters stay around seventy degrees Fahrenheit. Scouts sleep in two-person canvas tents set on wooden platforms located up the canyon under the cherry trees.

Camp Emerald Bay currently serves over 4500 Boy Scout Campers per summer. With such a large property and many exploration sites on Catalina's West End, the possibilities for activity and growth are limitless. Your week-long stay will be broken into five periods a day, where you may take part in a number of merit badges and rank advancement opportunities.

In addition, Emerald Bay offers a wide variety of Troop bonding activities, such as kayaking, mountain biking, and snorkeling endeavors. You will also take part in the traditional Emerald Bay War Canoe, where you will join your troop for an incredible team building overnight experience on secluded Parson's Beach, just an hour's canoe ride away.
