Judging by the popularity of our World’s 10 Best Gay Beach list last week, it’s pretty clear that many of you can’t wait to rip off all of your clothes and soak up as much summer sun as possible.
So to help you legally go that one step further, we now present our 2013 list of the planet’s best nude beaches.
As with the gay beaches, please comment away if your favorite didn’t make the cut. We’ll be back in the coming weeks with our top reader beach picks.
Meanwhile, enjoy the clothing-optional view.

Somehow the world’s largest nude beach (Cap d’Agde in France, nudite obligatore) and the iconic Mykonos island in Greece missed this “global” list.

Why would anyone want to be on a nude beach?

What a ridiculous list! There are lots of naturist beaches in southern France, and none of them are listed here! This is US-centric crap!

You have got to be kidding – showing pictures of nude beaches and blocking the nudity lol lol lol its like showing a nude beach scene where everyone is wearing a bathing suit. Girls walk around on suited beaches and you can see their back sides but you are showing nude beaches and block asses got to laugh
Chip
Big shocker. The cute gay boys have bathing suits on.

Why would anyone want to eat pizza, or ice cream, or meat, or vegetables? Because they like it.
Not everyone has been conditioned to believe that they required to be ashamed and embarrassed of their bodies.

When I think of nude beaches I don’t think of groups of men standing around in bathing suits.
