I wish I had an experience like you Paul. I stopped by this afternoon. By the time I got to the beach (which was a really difficult ramble by all accounts), it was 5pm and the beach pretty much deserted. I thought with the fine weather and the rain coming, it may have been busy with naturists making the most of the last beautiful evening for a while. I stripped off half way along the beach and stopped a way short of the final dunes before the river due to 2 groups of textiles that had set up base there (including children). I hovered by another dune for 30mins or so and didn’t see any activity. I did enjoy a naked walk most of the way back to the carpark though as it was so quiet, I didn’t pass a soul. Wish I could have met some like-minded individuals but not to be this time

More reviews by Jon (2)Only people I saw on way down to the river were textiles, but they were all friendly. Slightly awkward passing a group of young women who were wading in the sea. They seemed a bit taken aback at first, but one of them said she wished she was that brave as I passed so I guess they weren't that bothered.
Crossed the river and sunbathed naked for a few hours where the beach meets the pebbles. On the walk back was a bit more daring, walking along the top of the beach. Saw more people naked up on the edge of dunes on way back, mostly men but some older couples. Was great to see the textiles weren't bothered by me or them.
On way back I bumped into the 3 women from earlier, 2 of them were topless, and one chatted as I walked past, asking if I walked all the way and where were my clothes. Explained I hid them and we chatted for maybe 10 minutes before I carried on to get my stuff.
All in all a really great day and positive experience, will definitely go again.

Where are all the nudists (naturists)?
Was I in the right place?
I went a few days ago. Great beach, but no naturists, just maybe 20 textiles, plus horses and fishermen during the two hours I was there.
I entered the beach from the nature reserve, and walked 10 to 15 minutes north to the wooden wreck of the Altmark (there's another wreck right at the north end of the beach). I then walked further north towards the steelworks for about 30 minutes. I didn't see any naturists.
During the walk back it got very quiet and since I could only see a couple of people fishing, I had my first naturist sunbathe for five minutes. I was a little worried that someone would pop out from the dunes or come along the beach so I dressed because I didn't want to offend or upset anyone.
If there had been other naturists to prove I was in the right spot, I would have stayed longer (but alone).
I then walked back to the south end of the beach and back through the nature reserve.
Was I in the right spot? And is there a route that isn't through the nature reserve? The nature reserve required long trousers which aren't easy to get back on in a hurry with damp feet, I've realised?

I would love to try this beach as the closest to me is Marros Sands, which is very difficult to get to and I have never seen another nude beach goer down there. From what I have read, the shortest walk seems to be from the Kenfig Burrows Nature Reserve car park, which seems to be a long way from the nude safe end of the beach. Does anyone have any advice on how best to access the beach, with the shortest walking distance? I’d be very grateful as looking to visit next sunny spell. Thanks, Jon

More reviews by Jon (2)Walked down to the beach and then walked along as far as the river before returning to the path that is the remains of the old road built to develop the deep water harbour.
Returned to the point where I arrived on the road then back into the reserve proper, and back to the castle.
Had a brief chat with a guy on his way to the beach and saw several other non textile visitors on the beach and in the dunes but generally the area is very quiet.
All you need is a decent sunny day!

More reviews by Dan (3)It was foggy but very humid, as such it reduced the numbers, but for the better.
It tends to be a male dominated domain, but today there were many more couples, all of whom were happy to pass the time of day. What was pleasing were the number of younger couples throwing off their inhibitions.
I use my mountain bike to get to and from the beach- the long way round NOT through the Bridleways. It is far quicker, even when the sandy paths mean I have to dismount and push.
If you use the Nature Reserve Car Parks it costs £2-£4 now but well worth it

I've walked virtually the full length nude with my dog and provided your considerate to the occasional textile you might meet never had a problem.

More reviews by Rob (2)The beach was extremely quiet apart from a few dog walkers.
I am going again this Friday if anyone is interested?

There were quite a few couples and single men there, all unclothed and it was so nice to lie in the sun.
Unfortunately we got lost walking back to the car park through the dunes, so it took us a while.
