“I was amazed by the lack of footsteps and displacement of sand from human interactions. I’ve never seen the coastline so pristine. A wild sight to see on a perfect beach day.” — Cover photographer Richard Podgurski (RP-Photograph.com)

“In Los Angeles, you can have the city life and feel like you’re on holiday at the same time.” – Isabel Marant

Point Dume State Beach

Some of Malibu’s best beaches are relatively hidden and require some preliminary research to access. The state beach here is not one of those, but it connects to nice hiking trails and sits adjacent to one of Malibu’s most famous secret beaches: Pirate’s Cove, where the iconic final scene of Planet of the Apes was filmed.

Dockweiler Beach

Look at that sparkling water! Feel that pristine sand! Can you believe how easy it was to park? As long as you pay attention to these things, it’s easy to ignore the hulking power plant behind you—and the noise of planes taking off from LAX. Dockweiler is far from perfect, but it’s accessible, centrally located, and rarely crowded. In Los Angeles, that counts for a lot.
