The tide is high
We visited Lechuza Beach over the Memorial Day weekend, arriving right when the tide was pretty high - after sunset but still light out - so we couldn’t walk onto the beach. Still, it was very cool. Look how close the water comes to the stairs. It was as if these stairs led straight to the ocean.
I loved the rhino-looking rocks. This one reminded me of a lonely beast looking out to sea:
Previously when I visited Lechuza, I got a nice stretch of the beach. Not this time:
We found free parking in the neighborhood right next to an Aston Martin and beach-front mansions. The gate was locked on our way out but a neighbor freed us.

The Los Angeles Urban Rangers taught me how to operate these beaches; sometimes, they run free safaris to the Malibu beaches. Now that summer’s rolling around, the beach is calling you.
* Caution - Lechuza Beach and the secret beaches of Malibu do not have lifeguards, bathrooms, and civilization around them. Visit at your own risk. Certainly don’t go into the water at high tide and don’t go alone. *
