Secret Beaches • Series

The Secret Beaches series by Theo Dombrowski shares all the best public-access spots—from tiny rocky coves to broad sandy beaches—all accompanied by handpainted illustrations.

With full descriptions of each beach, you’ll be able to find the right location for your activity, from group picnics to romantic cuddles, leisurely strolls to wild woodsy walks, family explorations to soul-searching solitary afternoons watching the clouds race across an island-dotted horizon. Discover where to launch a kayak, where to catch some rays, or where to spot elusive wildlife.
