Film Location
With its proximity to the film and television industry in Los Angeles, Zuma Beach has been a popular filming location. It was a frequently used site for the television series Baywatch as well as numerous films, television episodes, and advertisements. The beach substitutes for "a deserted island in the south pacific" when Larry Hagman discovers Barbara Eden (as Capt Tony Nelson and Jeannie, the genie respectively) in the very first episode of the classic sitcom I Dream of Jeannie (1965–70). The beach is referenced in the 1978 TV-movie Zuma Beach starring Suzanne Somers. Westward Beach has been used for innumerable films, television shows, and advertisements for decades. Planet of the Apes's famous final scene was filmed near here (on the cliff face of Point Dume). Countless advertisements, both film and print, that require beach scenes are shots of Westward Beach.
