Sun, sea, sand, and on the sand there are absolutely naked people. No embarrassment or white stripes from your swimsuit when you return home. About twenty years ago, this type of recreation was rather exotic and inaccessible, but now nudist beaches have become quite common and even commonplace in many parts of the world. In this article we have collected information about the best official beaches where you can sunbathe without clothes.
Swanbourne Beach, Perth, Australia
Perth is located on the sparsely populated western coast of Australia and it takes quite a long drive to get there from Sydney. This is approximately the same as from New York to San Francisco or from Moscow to Novosibirsk. Swanbourne Beach rewards those who decide to make a long journey with snow-white sand dunes, clear blue waters of the Indian Ocean and a company of hundreds of young, cheerful nudists. Sunbathing with clothes on is not accepted here. All summer months (in Australia this is the period from December to March) the “Naked Olympics” in beach sports is held on this beach.

Tahiti Beach, Saint-Tropez, France
Tahiti is located on the Pampelonne coast and is considered one of the best beaches on the French Riviera. It is customary to sunbathe topless here, but there are corners where people relax completely naked. The Tahiti beach has become famous since the distant 50s of the last century thanks to Brigitte Bardot and the film “And God Created Woman,” scenes from which were filmed here. Like a good wine, it only gets better with time. Among the advantages of this relaxed and respectable place is its proximity to the city of St. Tropez, which is loved by the rich and famous and attracts tourists eager to taste the luxurious life.

It was on this beach on the Atlantic coast of France that nudist culture began in the 1950s. Interestingly, this beach is considered a family beach and is especially good for vacationers with children, because it is a guarded, fenced private area.

Jerolim, Croatia
This beach, much loved by nudists, can be found on the small island of Jerolim in the Adriatic Sea, near the large Croatian island of Hvar, famous among tourists.

Bellevue Beach, Copenhagen, Denmark
The beach, a 15-minute drive from the Danish capital, is very popular among nudists in Northern Europe. There are designer changing cabins, stylish lifeguard towers and sun loungers. It’s a pity, you can only plunge into the warm waters of the North Sea from May to September.
Makena Little Beach, Maui, Hawaii
One of the oldest and most popular nudist beaches in the world, Little Beach on the Hawaiian island of Maui has not yet received the official designation. It is not equipped at all, so you need to take water and everything you need with you. In the 70s, this secluded corner, screened from prying eyes by rocks, was chosen by hippies, who were initially chased away by the police. Now lovers of naked recreation have been left alone, and people sometimes come to the island just to relax on the famous beach.
