Fun Facts

Point Dume has been a filming location for iconic movies like 'Planet of the Apes' and 'Iron Man'.

The stunning cliffs and rock formations are the result of millions of years of geological activity.

The beach is a prime spot for whale watching, especially during the migration season from December to April.

The beach is home to the rare and endangered Dume Bluffs blue butterfly and its host plant, the sea cliff buckwheat.

The Chumash people, who lived in the area for thousands of years, called it 'Sumo', meaning 'the place of the big rock'.

Sunset is the perfect time to visit, offering breathtaking views of the Pacific Ocean and the Santa Monica Mountains.
