Location and the Beach QuinetiQ own the beach above mean high water and although they have not designated that as a Naturist beach, the beach continues to be very well used by Naturists.

A half mile stretch of beach between Milford on Sea and Barton on Sea. Be advised that the footpath between Milford on Sea and Taddiford Gap is currently closed - Spring 2025 until further notice.

The Beach Morfa Dyffryn is one of the best naturist beaches in the UK. It's situated on the Welsh coast between Barmouth and Harlech. It is a two hour drive from Chester and the West Midlands, and a three hour drive from Manchester, Liverpool or Gloucester.

A popular beach in South Wales. Access is either via Monknash or an emergency access ladder in the cliff. The part of the beach normally used by naturists is the rocky bit (flat rocks) at the north-western end, nearest Wick. It is not recommended to access it by the ladder fixed to the cliff at the Wick end, but people do. It is preferable to go via Monknash, parking in the farmer's field car park, then walking down the lane, through the Cwm and over the pebble beach, turning right at the

Location and the Beach The Gower was the first place in Britain to be declared an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and it’s not hard to see why. To the north of the peninsula, at Whiteford Burrows, there are more than 2 miles of secluded sands backed by a nature reserve. Owned by the National Trust and leased to the Countryside Council for Wales, this lovely bay is surprisingly deserted. It’s a fair walk to the remote parts of the beach traditionally used by discreet naturists. Strong cu

Directions Drive into St Osyth village and take the minor road south to Hutleys caravan park. At the sea wall, pay the car park fee. In the past you could then drive along the dirt rough beach track for about a mile to this official beach. Alas the winter of 2003 was harsher than other years and the middle part of this track is now unsuitable for cars. Reasonably fit people can still walk to the naturist section, but you will need to plan ahead. Our recommendation is to walk along about an

Not to be confused with Fairlight Cove, which is 2km away, and officially shown on the map as Covehurst Bay. History was made at Fairlight in 1978 when the local council designated it an official naturist beach – the UK’s first, although plenty of beaches were used naked well before then. Fairlight has had some access problems in the past due to coastal erosion, but regulars work hard to reopen it and at the time of writing it has very well built steps cut into the earth cliff.

Location and the Beach The beach is comprised of large pebbles with occasional patches of sand and backed by chalk cliffs. It is not overlooked and attracts few walkers. In the past the beach has been closed owing to cliff falls. The cliffs are fast eroding, which is how they're white - don't sit too close! A visitor described the beach as: "very clean" and "in a beautiful setting, the white chalk cliffs of the seven sisters behind you afford great views down the coast" Safet

Location and the Beach Probably the most public naturist beach in Devon and certainly one of the easiest to reach. Backed by red sandstone cliffs, it is a beautiful setting. A very popular naturist beach, so if you want to avoid the crowds, walk further down the beach. The beach consists of large pebbles which bank steeply into the sea. These are not easy to walk on and uncomfortable, so good footwear and maybe some form of cushioning/air bed to lay on is a good idea. Very small pocket

Location and the Beach A mixture of shingle, small pebbles and rock pools. A spectacular and tranquil setting with a potential naturist part stretching a long way if you fancy a good walk, however, there is a small textile area in the middle where the coast path meets the beach. Due to the location it is never crowded, though seems to have a regular following. Directions There are two ways of approaching - the flat way with a long trek along the beach - park in Sidmouth, turn left
