How did you guys make paths to your hidden beach?

[Krissi2197]

With the addition of Redd I actually want to try to make something of my secret beach now!

The issue is, I only have one incline left... I wanted to do two inclines from level 3 to level 1 to the beach, but I don't think I'll be able to do that.

Show me how your hidden beaches look with inclines!! Give me some inspiration!

At least you didn't build your house on a cliff in front of it T_T

I'm debating moving everything because of dang Redd.

 

[MyLifeIsCake]

I had the same idea for a 'secret' path leading through it, but sadly need my inclines for pratical purposes.


I kind of like keeping it a ladder-accessable area. It gives it an exculsive feel

 

[Pyoopi]

It took a lot of swearing and fist shaking at the restriction dialogue to make what I wanted to work.

I tore down cliffs on the north so i can walk around my entire island

I've been waiting for one of these threads! This is the one part of my town I actually finished (and I'm too stubborn to change) here's a little video I made of the area in front (my house) and the beach itself!

Here's a crappy gif of my secret beach back during cherry blossom season. <3

I just cut through my cliffs, the right side is inaccessible without a ladder, but I think I'm just going to keep it as is, an untouched pond and little shrine for friends that passed.

I totally just cut the entire second layer down for that part, so that there's a flat walking path.

This is exactly what I did and Redd has ruined everything I made the beach my own private lil beach but it's not so private anymore. I don't have any ideas as to what to do with my house now. I finally got the inclines aligned the way I wanted them and everything.

i haven't really done anything to it aside from move some bamboo out of the way. it's such a small area, i'm struggling to decorate it (also have run out of inclines to use with it D: ). imagine my surprise to see redd's ship there -_______-;;;

 

[Munyo]

That pocket of sand in the back was where my two gnomes were having a picnic and making out. ): So I have to reincorporate that in the path somehow.

We're 100% in the same boat D;

I had my fruit tree farm in front of the secret beach... I'm considering tearing it down (Fruit isn't even really that much of a profit for me, plus I have a free fruit tree section in front of the airport for visitors, so I can just use that if I'm in need of fruit)

I'm not completely sure how I'll do it... below the tree farm is where Drago's house sits(and soon to be Molly once her amiibo card comes in). I kind of wish they would have incorporated Redd sooner... I'm going to have to do a lot of re-thinking just to make a path to an ugly boat.

 

[Krissi2197]

You guys who shared your ideas have such good ones!! I may take inspiration from you guys to help me decide on what to do.

I'm glad I'm not the only one in this situation lol

 

[pocky]

I don't have any inclines left and I didnt want to tear down the cliff to make an entrance so I left it as is. I kind of like the idea of it being a hidden spot and Redd barely shows up anyway.

 

[s i r e n t i c]

I had a pathway down there at one point, then I tore it down and moved Diana’s house directly in front of it.
I’m kind of debating moving Diana’s house, but that would throw my whole map off :/
Currently I’m just kind of headcanoning that Diana got bribed by Redd to help hide his ship, and that’s why one of her fences gives just enough space for someone to use a ladder behind her house

 

[tajikey]

I just use my ladder to get down there. Not too concerned about redesigning for one NPC.

 

[voltairenism]

here is my path! I wanted for it to be mysterious and magical

also, this incline takes to the wizards tower. the other way to make it here is a hidden path that takes to coco and clay's house, who then takes to the wizards tower. I put them there because they look like dolls made alive by dark magic lol

I cut in so the stairs are embedded in the cliff. I had already set it up before it was known that Redd would be using it. Fortunately, the decorations I put down can stay - beach towel, umbrella, sand castle, and picnic basket.
