About Malibu, California

County
Los Angeles County
Coastal Region
Northwest Los Angeles County coast
Coastal Setting
A long, varied coastline of points, coves, reefs and sandy beaches

Malibu stretches along a long east-west section of coastline with points, coves, reefs and beaches that face different directions. Because of that geography, the same offshore swell can produce very different conditions from one Malibu beach to another.

Seasonal pattern: South and southwest swell can be important in warmer months, while winter more often brings west and northwest swell.
