Malibu Lumber Yard Mall, Los Angeles California

Description

Malibu Lumber Yard Mall is a fantastic outdoor mall made entirely of attractive hardwood, a tribute to the old lumber yard that used to be located here. A deck drenched in sunlight beckons you to stay a while on the cushy chairs. Two storeys face into a wood stage where bands play live music on the weekend. There's a great feeling here! Palm trees swish in the breeze while the mountains tower above you majestically. Fish swim about in the cylindrical kelp tanks. Lines of eager people wait for icecreams and shakes at the ChocolateBox Cafe. Make sure you go upstairs and enjoy the amazing views.
To the north, walk over to Malibu Country Mart, a bustling area with playground, swings, and sandpit, a toy store, sculptures, picnic tables, and more designer stores and cafes.
Across the street, there's a Starbucks with great views of the mountains, and a movie theater.
Walk the bridge over Malibu Lagoon to see Adamson House, situated perfectly by the sea between Mallibu Pier and Malibu Lagoon. Stay a while on the lawn and soak up the sun.
Another mellow place to hang out is Malibu Colony Plaza, with restaurants and a Starbucks with outdoor seating by a Spanish fountain. While in Malibu, spend some time at Getty Villa (get your free tickets ahead of time on the internet) where you'll find Greek and Roman antiquities in a mediterranean paradise high above the ocean. For a more peaceful playground for your kids, check out Las Flores Creek Park, a brand new park with beautiful play equipment.
