Solstice Canyon is a park within the Santa Monica Mountains National Recreation Area in Malibu, California. Located off Corral Canyon Road from Pacific Coast Highway, the canyon runs north-to-south about a mile east of Point Dume. Solstice Canyon opened on June 20, 1988 and was created out of land owned by Fred and Florence Roberts.[1] Before becoming a park the land was known as Roberts Ranch from 1932 to 1988.

Roberts Ranch hosted 25 acres to space technology laboratories to conduct research for the Pioneer Series for NASA.[2]

In 2003, during excavation for the parking lot, a Chumash grave site was discovered.[3]
