Licensed Massage Therapist – Live & Work on Beautiful Catalina Island
Are you ready for a lifestyle change? Catalina Sea Spa is seeking a full-time Licensed Massage Therapist who is excited to relocate to beautiful Catalina Island and become part of our close-knit team. This is more than a massage job—it's an opportunity to trade traffic, long commutes, and the fast pace of mainland life for a walkable beach community where work and home are just minutes apart.
Not sure if relocating is the right fit? We understand. Come stay and work with us for two weeks so you can feel confident you're making the right long-term decision. It's an opportunity for both of us to see if we're a good fit, with no pressure to commit before you're ready.
We offer a consistent five-day work schedule, including Saturdays with Sundays off, housing options for applicants relocating to the island, and an established clientele. If you've ever dreamed of living by the ocean while building a stable career, Catalina Island offers a unique opportunity to do both.
Why Move to Catalina Island?
Enjoy a relaxed beach-town lifestyle where you can walk to work, spend your days off at the beach or exploring the island, and leave behind the stress and expense of commuting.
