travelgourmet Says: California here I come. I want to see the Pacific Ocean. What about surfers? So, it is Southern California I want to see. The land of Gidget and Moondoggie. Surf's Up! What better place to see this than from the Malibu Pier. Looking out to Surfriders Beach on one side and...

Roadquill Says: Solstice Canyon is a tranquil park area just inland from Pacific Coast Highway at Solstice Canyon. A creek runs through the canyon and there are several hiking trails, including the road that leads up to several ruins, mostly due to wildfires. Waterfalls add to the...
Roadquill Says: The Malibu Pier has been around for as long as I can remember. I used to hitchhike from the San Fernando Valley and still have fond memories of enjoying the surf and sand right at Malibu Pier.A few weeks ago I was up early and was able to take some wonderful dawn shots.There...
travelgourmet Says: NOW CLOSED. My review will stay as this is my memory and a local hangout I enjoyed visiting. Lack of tourists and the economy does play havoc on the restaurant scene.Fresh ocean breeze, sparkling blue waters and al fresco dining says The Beachcomber Cafe in Malibu,...
travelgourmet Says: NOW CLOSED. Lack of being open all year round and the walk to the end of the pier may have doomed this domed location. The review will stay here as a memory. Bring your own lunch, if you want to eat out on the pier watching the surfer's in the water.The All American Diner...
Dabs Says: We arrived at the Getty Villa at 11am and needed a snack to tide us over until we had lunch, of course you won't be eating here if not visiting the Villa. The Cafe is self service, you order at the counter and then someone brings the food out to you. There's a lovely outside...
Dabs Says: There are a bunch of seafood restaurants along PCH in Malibu, some of them in the pricey range such as Gladstone's, Chart House and Moon Shadows on the ocean side and the more casual places like Neptune's Net, Malibu Seafood and Reel Inn on the other side of PCH. We had been...
Dabs Says: I was heading south on PCH on my way to LAX and decided to stop for one more seafood lunch before going home. Malibu Seafood got better Yelp reviews than Neptune's Net or Paradise Cove so I stopped here for lunch. You order inside and seating is all outside, just like Reel...
marinarena Says: In Malibu's Country Mart, John's Garden is a shack of tasty delights with a hippie vibe. It is founded by a local named John Musante who befriended mart founder- renowed fashion designer Fred Segal. Since 1975, the Garden has been a success by offering comparably low prices...
MM212 Says: Housed in the only structure right on the beach in the near vicinity, Sunset Restaurant is a great place to watch the sunset and have dinner! Admittedly, I was here for a late lunch on a cloudy day, but I know that its west facing windows would make it great at sunset! The...
Yaqui Says: Gone are the days of free parking near the beach. So now, they have allotted areas of public pay parking. You will see these type of signs and I will tell you, although it was not a busy week day, they were checking the parking and the meters. This one was in front of the...
travelgourmet Says: This is your chance to kill 7 birds with one stone. 1.) Walk out to the end of the Malibu Pier on the Pacific Ocean. 2.) Watch the surfers at Malibu Point, Surfriders Beach. 3.) Look at Carbon Beach and Billionaires Row of beach homes from the seaside. 4.) Shop for that...
Yaqui Says: This wonderful gift shop is located at the end of the pier. It has lots of wonderful Malibu branded souvenirs. Has some unique clothing items and one side of the store is dedicated to educational toys. Oh, if anything come see and say hello to cute Sadie!
Yaqui Says: Malibu has one of the distinctions of having an actual surfers ONLY beach. No swimming, wading, bodyboards and kayaks. Yet, just to the left of this sign is another sign that lets you know which is surfers only public beach and which side the public is allowed to swim. This...
Roadquill Says: Malibu is a delicate, year round creek originating just a few miles North of Malibu in the Santa Monica Mountains. It is home to the endangered Steelhead and, accordingly, all you can do is enjoy the view of the creek. There are several turn outs on Malibu Canyon Road where...
pigletsmom Says: This is a religous retreat just a short drive from the Malibu Pier and Adamson House. It is set in the Santa Monica mountains offering spectacular views of the Malibu Lagoon. You can walk around the property as long as you are quiet and do not disturb the guests on religious...
Roadquill Says: The raccoons found in Malibu a sturdy, big and tough survivors. They have to hold their own against cougars and packs of coyotes. They will take off when able, but are very capable of defending themselves. This big guy was cruising near Malibu Canyon. They are not...
Yaqui Says: These buildings at the front of the pier I found interesting because they framed the entrance but didn't really match eachother. Still I knew they had some neat history. They were built in 1932 along with the wall that use to extend all the way to the Adamson House. They...
