🏖️ The El Beaches (El Matador, El Pescador, La Piedra)
Overview:
Located along one of the most breathtaking stretches of Pacific Coast Highway, “The El Beaches” — El Matador, El Pescador, and La Piedra — are iconic hidden coves in western Malibu, known for their dramatic cliffs, sea caves, and pristine sands. While technically California State Beaches, the surrounding hillside enclaves offer private, blufftop living with panoramic ocean views, unmatched seclusion, and quick access to some of Malibu’s most photogenic shorelines.
Real Estate:
Homes near The El Beaches are limited and exclusive — often gated estates with long driveways, contemporary designs, and cinematic oceanfront views.
