Download a calendar from iCloud.com
– Go to iCloud.com, sign in with your Apple ID and open Calendar.
– Share the calendar publicly.
– Copy the shared calendar URL and paste it into the address field of your browser. Do not press Enter or Return.
– Replace /"webcal/" with /"http/" and press Enter or Return. An ICS file will be downloaded to your default download location.

To learn more about exporting data from iCloud, see this Apple Support article: https://support.apple.com/en-ca/HT204055.
Import the ICS file into Google Calendar
After exporting your events, you can import them into Google Calendar.

– Click on Import calendar between the /"My calendars/" and /"Other calendars/" sections.
– Click Choose File and select the file you exported. The file must end with /"ics/" or /"csv/"

USE GOOGLE CALENDAR APPS and sync information
Now the best way to use Google Calendar is to use a Chrome browser by going to calendar.google.com or, for iPhone/iPad users, download the Google Calendar app from the App Store (link below). But if you still want to use Mac Calendar or native Apple Calendar on iOS devices, you'll need to set up your Google account for those apps if you want to sync them.
The simplest Google method
Chrome browser: http://calendar.google.com
Google Calendar app for iOS: https://itunes.apple.com/ca/app/google-calendar/id909319292?mt8
Android users must have the app installed, but if you need the Android app, here is the link: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?idcom.google.android.calendar&hlen
The native iOS way to stay in sync
I made 2 videos to show how to sync Apple Mail, contacts and calendar. You can watch the videos here:
