The 108 properties found in Broad Beach are home to many celebrities and feature all types of architectural design. The real estate options range from standard coastal contemporary properties with open floor plans to quaint bungalows. In Broad Beach, residents will find a peaceful community that values privacy, hidden beaches, and remote status.

Local Lifestyle
The people who live in Broad Beach value the finer things in life and their privacy. Many
properties are oceanfront or within walking distance of the Pacific, so it's not uncommon for
some of the biggest people in show business to opt for a semi-private walk on the beach. The
locals value their solitude, high standard of living, and space from the demands of modern life.

Dining, Entertainment, & Shopping
In this upscale area, locals take the Pacific Coast Highway or walk to the Trancas Country
Market for jewelry and upscale apparel, gourmet coffee, or to unwind with a glass of wine at the
family-owned Malibu Brewing Company. Vintage Grocers is the most favored shop in this
complex due to its selection of sustainable and organic foods. Kristy's Malibu has classic
American cuisine that patrons can nibble on while taking in the panoramic view of the Pacific.

Many locals and transplants take advantage of surf schools like Malibu Surf Experience to learn
how to surf from retired champions and professionals. Broad Beach is a quiet area without
major retail development, but it's only miles away from Malibu and near Zuma Beach. There are
more restaurants near Zuma Beach, such as Spruzzo Restaurant & Bar, where guests can
enjoy Italian dishes in the comfort of a heated patio.

Things to Do
This locale is named for Broad Beach itself, and those who live on the shoreline value their
private access. For a beach nearby with more public attractions in Malibu, the Zuma Beach
snack shacks and lifeguards let locals relax in a surfing mecca. For those who would like to
work out with state-of-the-art equipment rather than jog on the shore, Malibu Fitness is a
family-owned club with open-air lifting zones.

One local park that's never over-crowded is the Trancas Canyon Park, which has a separate
dog park, play equipment, sports fields, and a view of the "Keep It Clean, Malibu" public
installation art piece. People who enjoy horseback riding and hiking in the mountains can easily
drive to the Zuma Canyon Trailhead for the ocean and canyon view trails. Lechuza Beach is
another quiet area where residents and visitors can access the ocean after navigating a
challenging set of steps and pathways.
