Tuna Club of Avalon, Private sportfishing club in Avalon, United States

The Tuna Club stands at 100 St. Catherine Way, featuring a waterfront location dedicated to recreational deep-sea fishing activities and member gatherings.

Founded in 1898 by Dr. Charles Frederick Holder, the club established the first standardized rules for big game sportfishing after catching a 183-pound bluefin tuna.

The clubhouse maintains detailed records of fishing achievements, equipment specifications, and member contributions to marine conservation spanning over twelve decades.

The National Register of Historic Places registration provides protection for the building structure while allowing continued use as an active members organization.

The 1974 film Chinatown used this location as the Albacore Club, connecting the historic building to cinema history.
