Location and the Beach The beach is about a mile north of Britain's most easterly point and it can be very windy so try to have enough hands free for a windbreak! An old local saying is "It'll be a warm wind when the sun comes out". Alas in recent years due to a combination of coastal erosion here and coastal defence works further along the coast we have seen stones replacing the sand. However, the beach is well used kept clean and is friendly. The access to the sea is steep and can be roug

The Beach A quiet, gently sloping, sandy beach on the East Kent coast. At high tide swimming is excellent in shallow water (warmed by the sand if high tide is in the afternoon), sometimes accompanied by inquisitive seals At low tide it is a very long walk out to the water and even longer to get more than ankle deep. There is some vegetation and undulation to give shelter on a breezy day however, there is no shade and no facilities anywhere near the beach. A fenced off Nature Reser

Location and the Beach A pleasant beach of sand and stone between Folkestone and Dover. Usually approached from Folkestone to the west or Samphire Hoe to the east. The white cliffs tower above the beach but they can be unstable. In 2006 a sudden chalk fall sent naturists running for their lives. Access to the beach from Folkestone involves walking along unguarded concrete sea defences. The unwary could fall 20 feet. Any children or pet animals would have to be carefully watched. The area is

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

The naturist beach lies to the east of the main town beach and can be reached by following the road through Leysdown and for about 1.5 km beyond. It becomes a track (watch out for potholes) and sweeps away from the sea wall and back again in a U-shaped loop. Where it rejoins the sea wall there is a small parking area on each side, Mile End gate. Park here and continue eastwards on foot past some old wooden chalets. The naturist beach begins after 100m and extends for 250m. The beach is of sand a

The Beach Holkham, on the north coast of Norfolk, is one of the best sandy beaches in the country and has long had a naturist section towards its western end. It's a very gently shelving beach so the sea goes out a long way and there's plenty of room for everybody. There was a period in 2013 where we lost the official use of this beach although it was regained after much work by BN. The official naturist area is below the high-tide line. The beach is best if you choose a day when low t

This beach is not to be confused with Fairlight Cove, which is 2km away. It is marked on the Ordnance Survey 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 by naturists well before then. The area is susceptible to coastal erosion both on the beach and the cliffs behind. This has ensured the surroundings remain natural but it sometimes makes access difficult. Loca

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 Pentle Bay is located on the West Coast of Tresco, in the Isles of Scilly. Access and Parking There are no private cars on Tresco, so parking isn’t going to be possible! Access to Tresco is generally by boat from Hugh Town on St. Mary’s although it is also possible to access Tresco by boat from one of the other ‘off-islands’. It used to be possible to get to Tresco from Penznace by Helicopter ( this isn’t running at the moment, but there are plans to start a service

Location and the Beach I have attached a link as this little gem of a beach can be difficult to find. http://www.visitcowal.co.uk/ostel-bay-kilbride-bay-beach-walk-argyll.html This beautiful beach is normally very quiet and the local police are aware that on occasion naturists may use it and have no objection. On a hot, sunny day it can become busy but even when there have been children and dog walkers on the beach my husband and I have had no one complain or show any concern abou

Location and the Beach Surprisingly, this away-from-it-all nude beach near the southern tip of Arran enjoys official status as a naturist area. Palm trees outside the nearby pub attest to the favourable effect of the Gulf stream. The views across Kilbrannon Sound to Kintyre are delightful. Look out for seals basking just offshore. Don’t expect to find lots of other visitors, dressed or undressed, at this remote haven: you may well have the beach to yourself. The beach is of fine sand,

Location and the Beach This is the best sandy beach available for naturist use in north Cornwall. Sandy beach and clear water, though surf can be heavy and rough. Steep sand dunes behind. Naturists use the far north end of the beach A delightful open beach but rather too dangerous for swimming as the sea is rough and there are rip tides. The lifeguards are at the southern end only. The northern end is also used by surfers (but the sea is rough and only suitable for really experienced s

Follow path up slope for a few hundred metres, the is a Home Guard war memorial on the right and the track to the beach is 50 paces beyond that on the left.

Location and the Beach Ardeer beach is a sandy beach which stretches for about 2 miles with a high seawall behind. The Naturist beach starts at the Burns Memorial Mural (picture on the wall) and stretches all the way down to the rocks at the entrance to Irvine Harbour. There is no access to the beach from the Irvine side so everybody has to approach from the Stevenston side to gain access to the beach. Directions By Car To get to the beach from t
