Best ideas for a day trip to Malibu ✨
If you're looking for a place to take a day trip in LA, Malibu Beach is where it's at. It's located about an hour north of LA, and has a ton of coastal views and beaches along the coast. My favorite time to visit is in November because it's not too crowded. Yes, it'll be colder
