12/31/2023 1 Comment Canaveral national seashore tides![]() I’ve been to clothing optional places before, first time here. Going during the week may also be less crowded. It seems popular for all types of people and the water is great. (+ flyswatter and baby powder!!)Īnyone looking to break free from restrictive clothing culture, body conscious, or self-image issues will not regret starting hear. A durable beach blanket with a basic umbrella or pop-up canopy are strongly recommended. Take compact beach gear because the natural sea shore is not the easiest trek. Entry fee was $20 per vehicle and good for 7 days.Īs in other reviews, we agree that arriving early is must. A couple cyclist road up the peer and turned around with a "oh that's for real?" face. Having some understanding of shore fishing, I didn't feel the fishermen were creepers, they carried too much gear for all that!!! They also were all left of the pier 5 boardwalk. Us being "newbie" cautious, we didn't feel uncomfortable. We read reviews on several sites before going and afterwords felt that this beach was well secluded and everyone kept to themselves. This was a great beach for a first time clothing optional experience. I highly recommend at least getting out and looking at it, even if you don't want to hang out at the beach or swim in the ocean! It was still a fantastic beach with gorgeous views. Rather, in the waves, the shell bits seemed to suction onto your legs and stay there. It wasn't uncomfortable on the feet, but it didn't wash off in the waves. We are a bit spoiled in the sand department, as we're coming from the fine white sandy beaches in Daytona Beach. There is also a sign on the road before you approach the parking lot for area #5 reminding you that it's a clothing optional area. All of the other parking areas (1 through 4) are family friendly, clothing required beaches. BUT- we did see some nude sunbathers, so I would not recommend taking your kiddos to this part of the beach. We did not plan on swimming, so we were wearing shorts and tshirts. We travelled to Lot #5, all the way at the end of the road. * There are lots of noseeums, mosquitos and horse flies out there. You can still use the beach even if you want to keep your swim wear on. However, if you choose to go beyond your comfort zone to enjoy feeling the sun and wind all over, you'll won't regret it. If the thought of seeing folks of all ages, shapes and sizes without clothing, turn around now. And there is no MAY about it, you WILL see naked people enjoying life at the beach. This beautiful section of beach is clothing optional. *WARNING* Before you reach Lot 5, you'll see the sign notifying visitors that they may see nude sunbathers at Boardwalk 5. ![]() They're small and can fill up quickly on weekends and holidays. There are 5 beach parking areas, each located about 2 miles apart. If you come at the right moment, you may witness the hatchlings making their way from the nest to the Atlantic Ocean. This beach along with neighboring Klondike and Playalinda beaches are home to many thousands of sea turtle nests. Just be sure to bring everything you will need for a day at the beach. Personally, I would only use these in a dire emergency, but at least it is available. It is not groomed like other public beaches, there are no food trucks or any concessions available, no showers, and there are only outhouse type toilet facilities. Located within the Canaveral National Park, this is a natural beach. ![]()
