Activities You Cannot Miss Out On In The El Chorro Natural Park
Do you practice nudism? Malaga beaches to enjoy the sun in the most natural way
Practicing nudism or naturism has a series of benefits that those who take up this practice are very familiar with. Reducing stress, improving self-esteem, connecting with and respecting the environment, eradicating stereotypes, improving confidence, as well as the satisfaction of swimming completely nude. And an enviable setting to enjoy this pleasure are Málaga’s nudist and naturist beaches.
The Costa del Sol is an ideal space to put the values of tolerance and respect into practice, and to feel completely free while practicing nudism. If you are on the daring side and you fancy a day on the beach in the nude, here is a selection of Costa del Sol nudist and naturist beaches with their characteristics and locations so you can choose one, since there are options for EVERYONE.
Guadalmar beach Málaga
The naturist beach in Malaga, Guadalmar Beach, is located at the mouth of the river Guadalhorce, in the district of San Julian, as there is a mixed environment. So we will list it as one of the nudist beaches of Málaga, but not as one of the most recommended ones.
Benalnatura beach Benalmádena
In Benalmadena we find Benalnatura Beach, a little gem hidden among trees and palms. A nudist association is responsible for the cleaning and proper operation on the beach; There is also a snack bar, showers, toilets and a barbecue area. This nudist beach is popular with locals and outsiders due to its good atmosphere. Unfortunately, the area is very small and because of its popularity it is usually very crowded.
Costa Natura beach, Estepona
In Estepona you can find two nudist beaches. The first is Arroyo Vaquero, which is usually frequented by a large number of foreign tourists who have a culture of naturism that is part of their lifestyle and where families and people of all ages gather to enjoy a relaxed, pleasant environment. The beach maintains quite a virgin environment and does not have the typical beach facilities.
The second is Costa Natura, a famous nudist beach located between Guadalobón and Arroyo Vaquero. It is very popular with naturist tourists and offers 2,800 feet of grey sand, hammocks with umbrellas for rent, showers and bins.
Artola beach, Cabopino
In Marbella, nudists can stay at Artola beach in Cabopino, a vast beach surrounded by dunes and pines; the entire beach is about 1,200 meters long, with only one section reserved to naturism, while another part is “textile”, i.e, a mixed environment. In the textile area there is no service, while the non-nudist part feature all kinds of restaurants, showers and facilities.
Almayate beach, Torre del Mar
In the eastern Costa del Sol there are now two nudist beaches. Torre del Mar we find Almayate Beach, a sandy beach on a little urbanized area. Personally we haven’t been to this beach but we have received very good references, a nice atmosphere with both Spanish and foreign tourists. This beach also has a nudist beach bar; plus there is a nudist camp, Almanat, which also offers bungalows.
Cala del Pino, Maro
Another little gem is the Cala del Pino in Maro, near Nerja on the eastern side of Costa del Sol. This beach is difficult to access, as it is located among cliffs and gardens. This natural area was hidden for a long time, but now is greatly popular. On busy days it gets really crowded on a very reduced but beautiful space.
Playa de las Alberquillas, Nerja
Los acantilados de Maro acogen esta playa nudista en un entorno natural envidiable. Además, esta playa se caracteriza por la presencia de aves autóctonas y de un fondo marino espectacular. Sus aguas cristalinas invitan a hacer deportes acuáticos, que se han convertido en todo un atractivo en los últimos tiempos en la Costa del Sol. El entorno natural que nos ofrece este espacio del litoral malagueño, así como la ocupación baja de la playa y la belleza del paisaje, son un enclave privilegiado para los nudistas y harán que la experiencia sea excepcional.
Playamarina Naturist Beach, Mijas
If you are someone who appreciates nature, this beach is located in an unrivalled enclave where we can see quite a lot of vegetation, in addition to the area’s extensive biodiversity, the seabed, the coral and the presence of some cetaceans. As well as enjoying everything offered by this coastal environment, this Mijas beach provides all manner of amenities with one plus: discretion. Here we can combine practicing nudism with a unique setting. What more can we ask for a beach day?
De la Chullera Beach, Manilva
This Manilva beach gives us the chance to practice nudism and naturism. Located in a very quiet area far from prying eyes, De la Chullera Beach is a virgin beach where the environment, surrounded by rocks and cliffs, has been well conserved and respected. The landscape we can see, as well as the area’s vegetation make it a small paradise where you can be nude in peace and feel at one with nature. It also has amenities that will make your day easier, like public bathrooms, a restaurant and hammocks to relax on. A true idyllic setting where you can put the life philosophy of naturism into practice.
Recommendations
The nudist wave has spread around the whole world and it is no longer as rare to find or visit a naturalist beach. So, if you think that the time has come to try it out, you must bear the following in mind:
- Mutual respect is the main rule on these beaches. Put embarrassment to one side and don’t feel pressurised to disrobe immediately, since it is understood that people need an adaptation process.
- Pay attention to the signs. You must always stay within the established limits.
- Absolute peace and quiet. Nudist beaches are characterised as having a quiet and different atmosphere.
- Leave the camera at home. Forget about taking photos without asking first. There are people who are very wary of their privacy and you must respect it.
- Don’t forget sunscreen. Our body will be completely exposed to the sun, so it is important you use sunscreen.
- Relax and enjoy the experience.
