FOOD TRUCK!
You made it to Malibu and you don't want to spend $180 a night at the Malibu RV park? Here you go! Reservations are a must, and often last minute sites are available (cough cough campnab). Most sites have electrical (so you can charge your Tesla, which is what I usually see). The store is open during the summer, and there's often a good food truck in their lot.
Cell service isn't so great, and the trails into the mountains aren't that fun. One side of the campground is adjacent to Mulholland Speedway, I mean highway. The upper canyon is usually loud, and full of RVs in various stages of questionable maintenance. It's a great way to meet a legit surfer who bought a Class A back in the 1990s, and peaked.
This campground is awesome for beachcombing. Flipping all the rocks, and putting them back...it's great.
