Westward Beach

Westward Beach extends along the northern end of Malibu, featuring a shorter sand shelf and high cliffs that border the Pacific Ocean.

The beach has maintained its natural character since the early development of Malibu in the 1920s, preserving the coastal environment for generations.

Professional surfers, including Kelly Slater, frequent Westward Beach during large swells to practice in the powerful waves near Point Dume.

The beach operates daily from 9:00 AM to 8:00 PM, with limited street parking available along Westward Beach Road.

A pipeline structure separates Westward Beach from Zuma Beach, creating a distinct section with different wave patterns and sand characteristics.
