St. Matthew’s is located on a 28-acre campus in beautiful Pacific Palisades, one mile from the Pacific Ocean with miles of sandy beaches close by. Pacific Palisades is a residential community with a small business district and is adjacent to Santa Monica, Malibu, and Brentwood. The School is just a few miles from the Getty Villa, 20 minutes from the UCLA campus in Westwood as well as the Getty Center in Brentwood; Hollywood and downtown Los Angeles with the Crypto.com Arena, Dodgers Stadium, and Disney Concert Hall are within 20 miles. Los Angeles International Airport is 25 minutes from the School.
