We Love L.A. Week! “Gilligan’s Island”




The wayward castaways stuck on Gilligan’s Island were supposed to be far away from civilization. In actuality they were just across the freeway from downtown Los Angeles.


While the vast majority of scenes were shot on a soundstage, whenever exterior shots were required they were filmed at Echo Lake Park in Los Angeles. Visitors can explore the park themselves today.
