"Malibu" is a song by American singer Miley Cyrus. It was released on May 11, 2017, by RCA Records as the lead single from her sixth studio album, Younger Now. Its lyrics were written by Cyrus and its music and production was done by her and Oren Yoel. The song first premiered on Beats 1 on May 11 and was then subsequently released for digital download and streaming that day. It was commercially successful, reaching the top 10 in the US, and number eleven in the UK. "Malibu" became Cyrus's ninth top-ten entry on the Billboard Hot 100 chart. The song has been certified sextuple-platinum in Australia, quadruple-platinum in Norway, triple platinum in Canada, double platinum in Spain and the United States, and platinum in multiple European territories, including the United Kingdom.

The song discusses Cyrus' relationship with her then-fiancé and The Last Song co-star, Liam Hemsworth. Critics viewed "Malibu" as indicative of Cyrus' transition into becoming a more mellow artist, and more removed from her previously controversial image. An accompanying music video was released on the same day as the song. It features Cyrus in various all-white outfits as she is shown frolicking in various outdoor locations.
