Golden Beach, FL

This is the king of all Miami-Dade secluded beaches! Technically, as far as we know, Golden Beach is all private property. Its the "back yard" for several gorgeous beach-front mansions. Unless you know someone or are someone who lives on Golden Beach you will never set foot or sun bathe here. The sand is untouched and you can literally tell that there hasn't been footsteps in some parts of this beach for weeks. You'll find random objects washed up onshore whereas a public beach would have cleaned out this kind of debris. It just comes to show you how secluded, unused and private Golden Beach really is. There is no actual public entrance to Golden Beach but if you walk north from Sunny Isles beach you'll find yourself entering this hidden paradise!

Hollywood North Beach - Weekdays

Just south of Dania Beach is this secluded and hidden little gem called Hollywood North Beach. Its further north than what is actually known as Hollywood Beach (the one with busy shops, restaurants and activities... photos coming soon.) This beach is almost always empty on weekdays making it somewhat private and secluded if you are seeking some peace and quiet. There are no shops, stores or hotels nearby so pack your own lunch and escape to this hideout on the other side of a small boardwalk. There is a cool bike trail that many joggers love to frequent and even a local charity is known to feed the furry felines that call Hollywood North Beach their home.

Hallandale Beach - South Park - Weekdays

Hallandale Beach is a short beach dotted by tall condos (as you can see in the photo.) Most of the folks who frequent during weekdays are the members of the retiree community who stay nearby. Its usually very quiet, empty and occasionally visited by marine life (the lifeguards are always on the lookout). The tall condos will block your sun after 2 or 3 pm, so come early for sunbathing. The further south from the Hallandale Beach entrance you walk the more space you will have to your self if you want to be alone on the sand. The actual strip of sand is very narrow so don't expect much space to spread out. Otherwise its a quiet and calming experience during weekdays!

Key Biscayne Beach - North Entrance

If you travel down Key Biscayne all the way down to the southern tip you'll discover this hidden beach with it's own lighthouse and cafe. We saw kayak rentals and plenty of covered areas for grilling with the family. On the weekends it gets pretty busy. These photos are of the northern most entrance. So far north that we could NOT see the light house. The beach was short and the water has lots of sea grass for the manatees. We imagine that during the weekday this beach would be a really secluded place to be. Part state park - part hidden tropical hideout.
