Playa Secret Beach (Puerto Rico) is located outside the Palladio settlement, which may cause some difficulties for travelers who stay far from the coast. However, the remoteness from the village is not always a bad thing. Lovers of quiet rest know, the farther the beach, the fewer crowds.

The beach stretches on the sunny coast and the easiest way to get to the beach is by car or bike. If you don't have this option, then the second best solution is to use the taxi, which can drive you directly to the beach. The only problem, if your stay is far away it can be quite expensive. There is also a possibility of use of public transport, but in this case you need to check the correct route to the Playa Secret Beach with the locals. Take into account that the bus stop is usually in some distance., but accessing the beach requires traversing some distance on foot. While driving or cycling are the most convenient options for reaching the start point of trail, these methods may not be feasible for everyone. Alternatively, a taxi can be used to drive directly to the location. Public transportation is another option, but it's important to confirm the correct route with locals beforehand as the bus stop may be located at some distance.

User reviews

"If you happen to be in Palmas del Mar, you'll come across a green gate that indicates road closure. You can park your car nearby and walk for approximately 10 minutes to reach the beach. It's a great spot for leisurely walks and unwinding, but I wouldn't suggest swimming. Please remember not to litter."

Aria Delgado

"The beach is a stunning location to witness the sun rising and to enjoy the thrill of pursuing elusive hermit crabs. With its picturesque scenery and tranquil atmosphere, this place is a definite must-visit. A perfect rating of 10/10 is well-deserved for this natural wonder."
