Malibu and Point Dume

My last blog was about my day trip to Venice Beach and I would like to follow that post up with another day trip I took up the California coast – this time to Malibu. Point Dume in particular looked very appealing to me with the amazing cliffs and beautiful views. So up the coast I went and hiked all over Point Dume; out to the very edge of the Point, up and down the trails along the cliffs, and I even made it all the way down to the beach where some surfers were catching waves. It was a beautiful sunny day but extremely windy; sand was blown all over the parking lot at the beginning of the trails! I was very happy with another successful day trip and wanted to share some of the photos I took along the way.

A beautiful panoramic view of Point Dume.

The view from the top of the trails around the point looking out over Malibu and the view from the beach when I hiked all the way down.

Another photo of the very edge of the point (I hiked all the way out to the edge where there was a tiny platform of rock that you can stand on at the edge).

One last view of the gorgeous bluffs and sheer cliffs that make this area so unique and beautiful.

Malibu is definitely a must if you are traveling around that area. You can’t beat the wild cliffs and bluffs overlooking the ocean plus the trails with beautiful views at every angle.
