Surfrider Beach — Attraction in Malibu

One of my favorite surfing beaches for so many reasons! It seems to be the most popular surfing spot in the area because of good waves! Because they roll in at angles to the shore, surfers can return to their waiting spots via sand beach path, or around to wade thru shallow water. The beach with surf is clean and accessible, has lifeguards present during the daytime and is designated for surfing! In addition, there’s several parking options, from street parking to lots with attendants, local businesses and shopping centers. Public restrooms may be found by the lifeguard station and at the outhouse of the Adamson House Museum. Waves are fairly good for surfing and boogie boarding. When everyone’s spaced in consideration of others, the effect of multiple surfers going up top simultaneously per given wave is awe-inspiring, as if all to ride with every set! Newcomers and newbie’s may survey the waterfront from the parking lot, as to best fit in with the camaraderie for optimal enjoyment! Surfrider experienced boarders may have regular spots to wait and hang out together. Thus crowding conflicts are minimized, as the unspoken etiquette is understood...

Parking: Parking can be difficult on the weekends, but I have always been able to find street parking or in the Surfrider beach lot ($15) or the Lagoon state beach lot (around $3.50 per hour).

Eating: There is Malibu farms at the pier near by, aviator nation, or other spots. I have not been to a restaurant that has really...

Loved this beach. Great spots for getting in the water safely and not big waves throwing you around. Next to the Malibu Pier which makes it more fun to enjoy the view around. Restaurants are at a walking distance so no problem to eat something quick and come back. Couple of lifeguard shacks. People who were enjoying the ocean were decent and well behaved so I feel pretty safe to come back with my...
