What makes a good sunset in Malibu?
Malibu faces due west over open ocean, which means the full horizon is available every evening — no obstructions, no buildings, just sky and water. The marine layer is the deciding factor: when it clears completely by mid-afternoon, the Pacific horizon produces clean color all the way to the waterline. El Matador State Beach gives you sea stacks and tide pools as foreground. Point Dume puts you elevated above the coastline with the Santa Monica Mountains behind you.
