Traveler Surf Club & Coastal Outpost
@nat
Not biased or anything but this is the best surf club and shop ever. Stop by if you’re in Malibu and are curious about anything surfy.

Elevated modern asian, pricey with great vibes and cocktails. Great for a special occasion and/or bigger group (the space is huge), or when the parents are in town ;). Reserve ahead of time!
