The Malibu Historic District is a designated area along the Pacific Coast Highway that showcases the city's early beach culture through preserved cottages and the famous Malibu Pier. Visitors can stroll past historic homes, many dating from the 1920s and 1930s, and enjoy the pier with its restaurants, shops, and ocean views. The district offers a glimpse into Malibu's past as a rustic beach retreat before it became a celebrity enclave.
