How do I get to Secret Beach in Kauai?

As its nickname suggests, Secret Beach is not marked with signs nor is it easily accessible. A short but fairly steep trail leading to the beach is located at the end of the first dirt road you'll see on the right hand side when turning onto Kalihiwai Road from Kuhio Highway.
