Nudist Beaches in Crete

Crete, located in Greece, is home to a variety of unique beaches, including a selection of nudist beaches. These beaches offer a special kind of freedom and connection with nature, providing an environment where individuals can sunbathe, swim, and relax without the constraints of clothing.

Seitan Limania beach, situated on a peninsula adjacent to the Greek city of Chania, provides an idyllic and secluded location for nudists. The beach requires traversing a narrow path, adding to its secluded charm. Ammoudi B, situated in a picturesque cove near the city of Plakias, boasts a pristine white sandy terrain and is a favored destination for nudists. The beach's signature feature, a colossal green rock, stands prominently in the middle, adding to its unique appeal. Elafonissi Beach, located on the westernmost point of Crete, offers areas that are suitable for nudists. The beach's pinkish tint, due to the abundant protected wildlife and seashells, adds to its beauty. Livadi Beach is a charming stretch of sandy coastline located within the village of Bali, known to offer designated areas for nudists. The name "Livadi" is derived from the natural beauty of the surrounding meadows, reflecting the lush valley in the area.

In our guide below, you will find more details on these nudist beaches, including a map of the beaches. The guide also provides a more extensive list of nudist beaches in the area, for those interested in exploring further.
