Review:

Located just off Grove Boulevard, Secret Beach is aptly named as many people, even long-time Austin residents, don't even know about the existence of this little hidden gem. It's actually quite hard to find, which explains why so few people have heard of it, but once you do find it for the first time, you'll definitely want to come back again and again in the future.

Secret Beach is a lovely spot to come with the kids, with a nice sloping bank of sand and shallow waters. Swimming is prohibited here but you can at least dip your feet in at the edge. Shelling is popular here and old-time beach activities like picnics and making sandcastles can be enjoyed at Secret Beach too. This is also a good spot to bring your furry friend, with no rules against dogs on this Austin beach.
