Located in the eastern part of Malibu, Carbon Beach - West Access is one of the three access points at Carbon Beach. Carbon Beach is a one-and-a-half-mile-long south-facing beach that is situated between Malibu Pier on Surfrider Beach and Carbon Canyon Road. Carbon Beach has been nicknamed Billionaires’ Beach due to the many ultra-wealthy homeowners and incredibly expensive homes owned by celebrities and CEOs there – in 2019, one home sold for $110 million. Carbon Beach - West Access is great for beach walking, but be careful because the beach gets very narrow during high tides.
Please note that as a result of the Palisades Fire in January 2025, many of the businesses and homes near Carbon Beach - West Access have been destroyed, and we recommend not visiting this beach due to unsafe water conditions and poor air quality.
