Secret Beach

Secret Beach is a beautiful and popular stop along the Samuel H. Boardman State Scenic Corridor. OPRD maintains four parking lots and trailheads nearby: Arch Rock (Mile 344.8), Spruce Island (Mile 345.0), Thunder Rock Cove (Mile 345.8) and Natural Bridges (Mile 346). There is no fee to park at any of these locations.

Visit this beach at low tide and have a flexible plan in case a parking lot is full and you need to continue to the next one. Make sure to check the tide tables and bring water and appropriate hiking gear.

Starting June 22, the unofficial pullout popularly used as parking for Secret Beach along U.S. 101 between Brookings and Gold Beach will be unavailable for parking. OPRD suggests only using the parking mentioned above for parking.
