Nudist vacations in Croatia can be a great idea for a great vacations specially for couples and families wishing taking a vacation without clothes. But if you are looking for naked holidays ‘Jamaica style’ Croatia is not the place for this type of vacations.
I am proposing quite opposite naked vacations faraway from this big, crowded naturist resorts. All over Croatia , you can find a nude or clothing-optional beach that will meet your needs. At some secluded nudist beaches you will find total privacy, appropriate for those who feel less comfortable in the nude. Others attract a community of like-minded sun worshipers who have a affection for a nude beach.
Wherever you do, know that a visit to a nude beach is a natural experience. And that the pleasure of sunning and swimming at a nude beach is one you will long remember.
Possibilities for this vacations in Croatia are practically countless regardless of where you are planning to start your naked holidays. If you choose South Dalmatia region like Dubrovnik area you can find a lot of quiet nudist beaches on the small islands in front of Dubrovnik like Lopud , Lokrum, Elafiti islands , Sipan or Kolocep An unwritten rule says, in vicinity of asphalt shores you need a swim-suit, while nudists share all other coves.
If you decide to visit Mljet national park island, not too far from Dubrovnik, you can always take one of many trips from Dubrovnik. There aren't any official naturist beaches on the island of Mljet and none of the beaches is marked as one. But the island offers hundreds of lovely, little pebble stone coves and bays, many of them reachable only by boat, where you can be undisturbed and enjoy total privacy for a day.
Korcula island is another destination that makes an excellent base for day trips to places like Mljet and other islands of the Elafiti group (southeast of Korcula Island). From Dubrovnik you can reach Korcula by catamaran for all who would like to visit Korcula (small Dubrovnik) on a day excursion.
On the deserted islet of Badija which lies East of the town of Korcula, twenty minutes away by boat. It has a surface of about one square kilometer and is covered by dense maquis and pine, cypresses and olive trees. A shuttle boat runs from Korcula town to Badija Island. It could be an interesting destination for your nudist vacations. Read more about Korcula beaches!
The beach is rocky with a small shingle beach backed by pine trees and it is mostly visited by couples. The sea is crystal clear and great for swimming. Velika and Mala Stupa are two small islets not far from Badija, also often visited by naturists.
After Istra, Peljesac is the largest peninsula of Croatia. Pelješac is the peninsula of the mountains, excellent red wines and famous oysters and mussels which are cultivated here. Your next place for nudist vacations.
In the central part of Peljesac peninsula there aren't any official naturist beaches, but many coves, for example between Zuljana and Trstenik, are visited by naturists. The rule is if naturists show up first, "textile" sunbathers go for the next cove, and the other way around. All of those beaches are reachable by dirt road some 50-100 meters from the beach.
If you are entering in Croatia via Split than your nudist vacations can start on one of Central Dalmatia islands like Hvar, Brac, Vis or naturist beaches along the Makarska Riviera.
All islands are very well connected with Split as a primary ferry hub of Central Dalmatia region. Makarska Riviera has ferry connections with Brac (Makarska – Sumartin line) and Hvar island (Drvenik – Sucuraj line).
If you ask my personal recommendations what’s my favorite island for nudist vacations than without thinking twice, will be Hvar island. It’s not only my local patriotism to be essential for this judgment but first of all the countless beaches and coves like those marked as a nudist, but much more lonely and isolated ones scattered all over the island. Don’t worry nudism is widely accepted on this island.
Hvar is the longest Adriatic island. It has plenty of lavender fields, olive groves, and vineyards. Hvar is, no doubt, an exceptional island, both in summer and winter. Read more here!
Brac is the highest and third largest island in the Adriatic. Pine forests, olive groves, and vineyards are plentiful. Traditional seaside pleasures are to be found in the numerous bays, on sandy and gravel beaches that form the long and well-indented coast of Brac.
The beaches have something special, particularly the Zlatni Rat beach - their gravel promontory shifts from side to side as the wind and waves constantly change their shapes. Interesting note: The white stone of Brac has been used in many famous buildings, including the White House in Washington, DC. If you are planning your nudist vacations to Brac island getting to Brac island by ferry is the cheapest and the fastest way. This island is only 7 nautical miles from Split.
Central Dalmatia - the Makarska Riviera stretches for 60km, between the towns of Brela and Gradac, with the main town being, of course, Makarska.
The Riviera is one of the most famous tourist locations along the central Dalmatia and is also one of the most beautiful with countless sandy beaches, pine trees, sparkling water and peaceful bays. The area is also known for Biokovo Mountain, which overlooks the coastal area.
North Dalmatia islands and coast line is the right place for nudist vacations where you can find not only official nudist resorts and beaches but those hidden and secluded small bays.
Here you'll find the list of Northern Dalmatia nudist beaches including islands of Zadar and Sibenik archipelago and along the coast line between Zadar and Sibenik counties.
The County of Zadar is in the region of northern Dalmatia. It stretches over a surface of 8066.91 square kilometers, in both the mainland and islands. The coast is highly diversified with numerous islands and also includes a part of the Kornati islands.
nudist or naturist beaches including islands of Krk , Rab, Cres and Losinj. The most famous resorts on the Kvarner riviera are Opatija and Crikvenica.
Opatija is the grand dame of Croatian tourism. It was the most fashionable seaside resort during the Austro-Hungarian Empire and many fine hotels, residences and houses were built there during that period. Located in the very centre of the Kvarner Bay, the Crikvenica Riviera (including Crikvenica, Selce, Dramalj, Jadranovo), can be called "the doorway to the Mediterranean"
People began to experience Croatia naturally in the 1930s. As early as 1934 the first naturist beach opened on the island of Rab, which is known as the pioneer of naturism in the Adriatic. However, August 1936 is frequently thought of as the official beginning of naturism in Rab. The English King Edward VIII who was staying in Rab got permission from Rab’s authorities for him and his wife to experience Croatia naturally. This region is on of the best nudist vacations destination.
Istria peninsula has been an attractive nudist vacations or naturist destination for five decades. Today there are many official naturist campsites, tourist villages, beaches and numerous more unofficial naturist bathing places.
