Secret Beach, Natural beach in Samuel H. Boardman State Scenic Corridor, Oregon, US.
Secret Beach is a secluded shoreline within the Samuel H. Boardman State Scenic Corridor featuring rocky cliffs, two waterfalls from Miller Creek, and tide pools. The area is shaped by dramatic rock formations that create natural alcoves and sheltered spaces along the water's edge.
Indigenous peoples inhabited these coastal areas for centuries, relying on abundant marine resources for fishing and food gathering. The present-day scenic corridor protects this legacy of sustainable coastal use.
Photographers and nature lovers come here to observe and capture seals and sea otters in their natural setting. The secluded cove draws visitors seeking to experience the raw power of the coastal environment.
Reaching this location requires a moderately challenging hike from an unmarked parking area located north of Brookings. Plan your visit for low tide when additional beach sections and tide pools become accessible for exploration.
Four distinct beach sections are connected by natural rock passages that only emerge during specific tidal windows. This shifting geography allows visitors to discover different routes depending on when they arrive.
