Malibu Beach

Malibu Beach is a sand beach in Egg Harbor Township that stretches along the Great Egg Harbor River with soft shorelines shaped by natural dunes. The site features shallow water areas and several marked entry points distributed across the accessible coastline.

The area gained designation as a priority wetland by the Environmental Protection Agency in 1994 to protect its ecological value. This classification continues to influence how the site is managed and maintained today.

Local people call this place Dog Beach because it is one of the few spots where visitors can bring their pets into the water. The tradition has shaped how the community uses the shoreline today.

The beach is open year-round with dedicated parking facilities and clear pathways to the shore. Visitors should be aware that conditions vary by season and water levels change with tides.

The site forms part of the Malibu Beach Wildlife Management Area, a refuge for migratory birds that travel vast distances seasonally. Birdwatchers often visit during migration months to spot rare species passing through.
