El Matador Beach, Sand beach in Malibu, United States.
El Matador Beach extends along the California coast with large rock formations, natural sea caves, and numerous tide pools between sandy stretches.
The coastal area served as a settlement for the Chumash Native Americans before becoming a preferred location for Hollywood productions in the 1920s.
Professional and amateur photographers gather at the beach to capture images of the rock arches and ocean views against the California sunset.
The beach maintains a small parking area for 20 vehicles at 8 dollars per day, with access through steep staircases leading to the shoreline.
Natural sea caves and rock formations create secluded spaces along the beach, allowing visitors to observe marine life in the tide pools.
