Malibu Creek meets the ocean at Malibu Lagoon, which is a huge acre wetland area that is a haven for over species of migrating and local birds. Los Angeles is home to all kinds of architectural feats, so if you enjoy design and home decor visit the Adamson House right at the edge of the lagoon. This Spanish Revival is the place to see the best surviving examples of decorative ceramic tile produced by Malibu Potteries in the s and 30s.
The Malibu Lagoon Museum is attached to the Adamson House and gives a history of the area from the indigenous Chumash tribes to its place as a surf hot spot. If you want a more quintessential Malibu beach experience, then Surfrider Beach is right next door. If your vision of a Malibu beach is Sandra Dee as Gidget frolicking in a polka-dot bikini, Surfrider Beach at the east end of Malibu Lagoon State Beach is probably what you're thinking of.
Surfrider's super long right-hand break is famous among surfers, but the water is often so full of them that they leave little space for swimmers. At the northeast end of the beach is the Malibu Pier, which is popular with fishermen who hang out for the day and enjoy the scenery while angling.
If you don't want to catch something yourself, you can have a meal at the Malibu Farm Cafe specializing in California cuisine and farm-to-table dishes. Surfrider Beach is part of Malibu Lagoon State Beach, but the State Beach parking lot is closer to the lagoon side rather than the ocean side. There's a separate parking lot near the Adamson House that's ideal for reaching Surfrider Beach, or you can always park on the side of Highway 1 if you find a spot.
This small beach located north of Malibu just off Highway 1 is framed by bluffs and looks out onto the open ocean. Don't be surprised if it looks familiar. The Paradise Cove Beach Cafe extends onto the beach and all of its amenities like lounge chairs or private terraces are available to rent.
Because the restaurant extends onto the sand, this is one of the only beaches in the state of California that allows alcohol on the beach, as long as it's beer or wine and not hard liquor. There's a parking lot owned by the restaurant and you can park for up to four hours at a discounted rate if you eat at the Beach Cafe, but all-day parking requires paying the full parking fee. You can also park further up the road near the Pacific Coast Highway for free and walk onto the beach without spending any money at the Cafe.
If you want to eat at the restaurant and park in the nearby lot, it's best to make a reservation, especially on busy summer weekends. That's because you will be gawking at the scenic headlands, rocky coves, and offshore rock formations all while enjoying more than a mile of sandy beach at the foot of the high cliffs. Point Dume is a beach that has it all.
Active beachgoers can explore the various hiking trails overlooking the ocean before taking a dip and going for a swim, but there's nothing wrong with just spending the day lounging on the sand.
Scuba divers can explore the underwater area known as the Pinnacles, one of the premier diving spots in the state. From December to March, visitors can often see grey whales during their annual migration right from the shore. It's not just one of the largest beaches in Malibu, but it's actually split into Big Dume Beach and Little Dume Beach, so even on busy weekends or holidays you can usually find a space. On weekdays, however, the park is blissfully uncrowded and makes for the perfect urban escape.
The small parking lot closest to the entrance only has 10 spots and fills up quickly, but there's a much larger paid parking lot at the end of Westward Beach Road.
From there, it's just a 5-minute hike over Point Dume to the staircase that takes you down to the water. To sound like a local, drop the "beach" from its name and just call it Zuma, a go-to spot for LA residents and visitors alike. The 1.
This south-facing beach attracts lots of visitors on summer weekends but is relatively quiet during the week. If you're into playing beach volleyball, make sure to bring a ball with you since nets are set up along the stretch of beach for informal games with friends.
The shallow water and gently sloping sand make it a good place for swimming and body surfing most of the time, but keep an eye out for posted flags that signify safe swimming areas. Zuma is known for occasional dangerous riptides and rough surf, although lifeguards are on duty in the summer months to monitor conditions. There are eight paid parking lots all around Zuma Beach with nearly 2, parking spots, although if you find an open spot along the side of Highway 1, you can park for free.
Westward Beach is actually the southern-most section of Zuma Beach and extends all the way to Point Dume. It's known for its clean water and for being of the top surf spots in surf-crazy Malibu, even hosting several premier tournaments throughout the year. If you're lucky, pods of bottlenose dolphins are known to make an appearance, sometimes so close to the shore that you'll feel as if you're swimming with them.
