Yes there is a nudist beach in Brighton and here’s where to find it
Originally opened in 1979, Brighton’s nudist beach is one of the most popular and most accessible nudist beaches in the UK.
And since it’s Brighton and involves public nudity, the beach is hugely popular within the gay community. Despite the fact that the beach itself is one of shingle and pebbles, it remains one of the UK’s busiest naturist spots.
So be sure to bring flip-flops and particularly comfortable towel if you’re planning on sunning your bits in Brighton.
if you’re wondering how to find it – if you’re looking at the Pier (out to sea) the beach is a little way up the beach to the left, towards Duke’s Mound.
Is there cruising at Brighton’s nudist beach?
So there you have it, there is a nudist beach in Brighton and it happens to be very popular with the LGBT+ community, but as our Travel Expert, Nick Baker warns, don’t expect that just because a beach is particularly popular with gay men, to expect there to be a lot of cruising. He told us,
“Just remember that not all nudist beaches are gay beaches, and not all gay nudist beaches are ok with other “activities”. A nudist beach is not always an excuse to go dogging”.
