Any recommendations for info to somebody who’s new to free diving? (Gear, time of day, season, etc.)

Have spent most of my life on the surface of the water. I have access to it. I think it’s a good spot for diving in Malibu, and looking to see if I can grab a lobster or find some uni. Not looking to haul, just enough for a meal for myself and give some away.

Anybody out there open to sharing some knowledge with me?

Hi all :)
I have had he possibility to travel throgh Malibù in the last period and on the 30th of September, close to the Ackerberg Access to Carbon Beach, on the beach, I proposed to my girlfriend. While I was proposing, a passing guy took a couple of photos and after the proposal he approached us to share them; unfortunatelly, due to the emotion of the moment, we were not able to correctly share with the guy our phone contact or use airdrop, therefore, those photos are, at the moment, lost. We would love to have those photos!! Since this is a sub related to Malibù and since the guy told us he has been living there for 15 years, this might be worth a try. He is a tall afroamerican guy with two small dogs, one black and one goldish, that might have been both of pomeranian race. The only things that I know of him are that he has those two dogs, that he walks them on the beach and that he has been living there for 15 years. If this description resembles you of someone you know or if the person who is reading this recognezes himself in the description, please, contact me, we would be very happy to have those photos of that once-in-a-lifetime moment.
Thank you.

Hey Malibu! I'm a recent college grad working for a startup from the comfort (and solitude) of my couch. I’m new around here, don’t really know anyone, and thought, "Hey, maybe drinking alone doesn’t have to be the main vibe." Which brings me here, hunting for a solid drinking buddy to help me break up my WFH routine with some actual human interaction.

My Ideal Drinking Buddy:

1. Enjoys a good beer or cocktail without any “we’re breaking a record tonight” energy – I'm all about slow, meaningful sips.
2. Can navigate a chill night with dive bars, beach bonfires, or anywhere we can have an actual convo (and hear it). Club vibes aren’t my thing, unless "club" means “book club.”
3. Shares a love for music – jazz, house, techno, DnB, blues, soul, or indie alt rock? Yes, please.
4. Thinks hikes, scenic book reading, and people-watching are prime life activities.

About Me: If you’re looking for someone who’s really into hiking, meditating, and contemplating life over a beer (preferably while watching the sunset), then we’ll get along great. I don’t do random bar karaoke, but I might just suggest hitting up the beach or finding a low-key live music spot to mellow out. And while my laptop is basically my roommate, I think it’s about time I add some actual faces to my social circle.

So Malibu, if you're a chill 20-something who’s down to laugh, grab drinks, and maybe even chat about the best places to people-watch, drop me a DM. Let's make sure my couch doesn’t become my only friend. Cheers! 🍻

You guys still noticing the red tide?

Is it normal to have weird wafts of tar smells on the ocean? I’m here and sometimes it’s heaven and sometimes it’s “wtf”. In other news, I rolled myself out of bed form 24 hour election stupor to see pumpkins rolling on shore and that felt surreal but wholesome af.

What in the hell is going on?

Scandals meet rebeles.

I’ve lived on PCH for 3 years now — it’s never smelled this bad. Hoping it goes away soon.

I'm trying to plan a birthday dinner for a friend in December and was hoping to get a dinner reservation on the water where we could watch the sunset. After looking at the sunset times, I'm realizing that this might not be possible unless we eat at 5:30PM. Is this conclusion accurate? Is there any point in trying to time this or am I better off optimizing for a different kind of restaurant (like Inn of the Seventh Ray or something)? Thank you for any advice!

Looking to rent an apartment on pch kinda near the McDonald’s and just wondering how loud it gets at night

Hello! I know this could be a reach & hefty ask, but I am currently planning on proposing to my girlfriend hopefully by the end of this year, and I'm looking for any help/ideas for where I should pop the question. I have been back and forth with my plans, but I know that I would love to do it somewhere in Malibu. I am envisioning something higher up, overlooking the ocean on property/land that's super private (so no beaches or public lookouts).

I wanted to see if anyone could either lend me some ideas or point me in the right direction. I started looking on airbnb to see if I could find a property I could rent, but just having a hard time justifying thousands of dollars when I could probably find something easier on the wallet if I did more research.

If anyone has some property or has a connection to a property that somewhat fits what I am looking for, that would be amazing! Happy to send more details if needed, and happy to pay a fee as well.

Thank you in advance!

Something came up and I can no longer run the Malibu half marathon this week :/ Message if interested.

We are selling a 2023 Spartan EV golf cart. This would be perfect for point Dume residents, Trancas residents, Broad Beach residents, etc..

Trying to cheer on my friend this Sunday at the marathon but I won’t be able to get there until after the shuttles to the finish line end!! (They stop at 6:45). Anyone aware of alternate parking close to the finish line (think it’s by Point Mugu beach?)

Looking to run it :)
