Malibu Seafood is a local favorite restaurant, which opened in the 1970’s. It offers fresh seafood and stunning ocean views in a laid back, relaxed beachside setting. Order at the window then find a table outside in their sitting area. Casual attire. We recommend the lobster rolls!!!
The Malibu Pier is an iconic, historic 1905 landmark extending 780 feet into the Pacific Ocean. Located right next to world-famous Surfrider Beach, it is known globally as a centerpiece of California's surf culture.

The Pacific Wheel, located at the historic Santa Monica Pier, is famously known as the world's first and only solar-powered Ferris wheel.

Yamashiro is an iconic, century-old historic estate and landmark located 250 feet up in the Hollywood Hills of Los Angeles, renowned for its stunning architecture, expansive Japanese gardens, and panoramic views of the city.

One of our favorite places!
El Matador State Beach is widely considered Malibu’s most naturally spectacular and photogenic beach.

Part of the Robert H. Meyer Memorial State Beach system, this rugged "pocket beach" offers a dramatic, elemental vibe that feels completely worlds away from the broad, flat resort sands found elsewhere in Los Angeles.
