Photograph of a birdseye view of the Malibu and Santa Monica Bay looking northwest, [s.d.]. The semi-circle bay is at center and there is a pier jutting out into the bay from the crescent-shaped shore. A small point forms the far edge of the bay. There is a narrow dirt road along the edge of the bay behind the pier. The land at right is made up of rolling hills covered with grass and generously-spaced bushes. A large land formation sticks out into the water in the background at center.
