Skateboarding House, United States

In the past, this area was a Chumash territory. This Native American tribe called their homeland “Humaliwo” which means “loud surf”. The current name of this Pacific city derived from that old name. The first mentions of Malibu date back to 1542 when Spanish explorer Juan Rodriguez Cabrillo stayed in Malibu Lagoon to replenish his freshwater stock. That being said, the colonists could capture the region and drive back the aboriginal tribes only in the 17th century. The first Spanish migrants started settling in the region only at the beginning of the 18th century.

Initially, there was no asphalt road in Malibu until the first Pacific highway was finally built here in 1929. At that time, a roofing tile factory was working in the city. Agriculture was developing too. The tile factory was producing the material for roofs of the local buildings, so almost all houses in Malibu had roofs covered with the tiles produced at the local factory. Unfortunately, a fire damaged much of the factory’s facilities in 1931. After that, it was decided to close the company. Malibu officially became a city only in 1991.
