Keyhole
The Sea Caves and Sea Stacks of El Matador State Beach attract huge crowds of tourists and Photographers. Film Crews, beach goer's, all jostle for their place in the sun and sand. Models smile for the camera, while Mom and Dad gratefully plop down coolers and kids for a day at the beach. With views like this, who can blame any of them!

December Rock Pool
The Lava Rocks that make up Rock Pool at Malibu Creek State Park, were created about 17 million years ago. The Conejo Volcanics of the Santa Monica Mountains began spewing their molten lava over the landscape, and as it cooled, gas bubbles that were trapped in the freshly formed lava formed the characteristic holes, and pockets that we see in the cold hard rock of today.
