| Note: This probably is Leo Carillo State
Park seen from the air. It is a beach located amongst Malibu's 20+ miles of
scenic beaches in a section between the county line at Ventura & Los Angeles
Counties to Point Dume Beach. Here is
information about this section of coast and many beaches it contains:
Leo Carrillo SP State Park - The park has
1.5 miles of beach for swimming, surfing, windsurfing, surf fishing and
beachcombing. The beach also has tide pools, coastal caves and reefs for
exploring. Giant sycamores shade the main campgrounds. The park also features
back-country hiking. Nature walks and campfire programs are offered and a small
visitor center has interpretive displays. During the summer, children's programs
are available. The park was named after Leo Carrillo (1880-1961), actor,
preservationist and conservationist, served on the California Beach and Parks
commission for eighteen years, and was instrumental in the state's acquisition
of the Hearst property at San Simeon. He was related by blood and marriage to a
long line of distinguished original Californians. Leo's greatest fame came from
his portrayal of Pancho, the sidekick to Duncan Renaldo's Cisco Kid, an early
1950's TV series. The park is located 28 miles northwest of Santa Monica on the
Pacific Coast Highway (Highway 1.)
