Catch a wave at Surfrider Beach, where perfect breaks have made this stretch of sand legendary among board riders since the 1950s. The Getty Villa houses ancient treasures in a setting so Mediterranean you'll forget you're in California. Hike through wildflowers in the Santa Monica Mountains, where trails reveal panoramic ocean views worth every drop of sweat. At Paradise Cove, toes-in-the-sand dining elevates the simple fish taco to transcendent experience. Point Dume offers dramatic cliff-top vistas where, between December and May, migrating gray whales pass remarkably close to shore. The Malibu Pier provides both excellent fishing and the perfect sunset selfie backdrop, though locals prefer the less crowded Carbon Beach for their evening constitutionals.
