ShowMeBlog: List of nudity places in FL

I love Wikipedia. I have not donated money to them yet. I will one of these days when I have extra money.
They have a List of Social Nudity Places in North America

Here is the information about

Florida

Haulover Beach, at 25°54′40″N 80°07′18″W / 25.91111, -80.12167 in Miami-Dade County (between Sunny Isles Beach, Florida, and Bal Harbour), the most popular nude beach in North America. Haulover Nude Beach is situated between the Intercostal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean and is part of Haulover Beach Park. This .4 mile stretch of white sand shores, open ocean surf, various shaded picnic facilities, beautifully landscaped sand dunes, and concession stands has attracted as many as 7,000 people on a single day. The northern nude area is officially recognized as as clothing-optional with official signs and is only a part of the Haulover Beach Park but attracts 66% to 85% of park visitors.
Playalinda Beach, part of Canaveral National Seashore operated by the Merritt Island National Wildlife Refuge (US Fish & Wildlife Service) - Titusville, FL; has long allowed nudity and has an unofficial clothing optional beach located at the north end of Lot 13 and north of dune crossover 13B. While there is no federal law restricting nude sunbathing, Brevard County passed an ordinance against nudity but the Sherriff is not enforcing it pending a challenge ^[7] to the constitutionality of the ordinance.
Lake Como Family Nudist Resort in Pasco County,Florida, is one of Florida's oldest. It is a resident-owned cooperative of almost 200 acres (0.81 km²) in a very natural setting of which 51 acres (210,000 m²) are registered as woodland and 60 acres (240,000 m²) as wetland. Five lakes are within or border the property. Lake Como exemplifies the ideals of the International Naturist Federation that include "self-respect, respect for others, and for the environment." Non-resident memberships in the resort are available, and free tours are available for those interested.
South Beach in Miami permits topless sunbathing, partially due to the large amount of foreign tourists and immigrants found on the beach.
Key West Private Sailing Charters offers 4 hour, 6 hour, snorkeling, SCUBA, sunset and custom overnight sailboat trips from Key West's historic harborwalk (just a few minutes walk from Duval Street) on which nudity is permitted.
Key West There are not any legal nude beaches, however Boca Chica has been used for clothing optional for many years. Most use is by locals who have kept it secret for years. There are some sandy beach areas, but do not expect wide sandy beachs, this is a more secluded area. There are no facilities or anyone to clean up after you so please remove anything you take! This is just like having your own beach. Go to mile marker 10 on highway 1, turn beside Circle K on SR 941, follow it to the end approximately 5 miles and park. Walk beyond concrete barricade and you have a 4 mile stretch all to your self. You can find additional information at Florida Keys Naturists
Apollo Beach - Canaveral National Seashore (National Park Service) - New Smyrna Beach, FL in the Atlantic Coast of Florida. Apollo Beach is an unofficial but traditionally safe area for nude sunbathers with positive support from the National Park Rangers. No official signs exist, but the clothing optional sunbathing area starts south of marker 29, just south of parking area 5. Scarce parking usually limits visitors to less than a hundred at a time. There is another Apollo Beach in Hillsborough County, Fl that has a very small beach inside the Tampa Bay and very close to the TECO electric plant. This is not a naturist beach and violators are fined.

I have been to Haulover Beach one time. I have been to the Playalinda Beach a number of times. I have not been to Haulover Beach in about 8 years. I need to start going since I live here in Miami now.

Comments

I went to Haulover beach about 3 years ago. The beach south of the very last parking lot in the park is designated as clothing optionhal. The last parking lot is very small with few parking spaces. If you are not there as soon as the park opens, you will have to park at one of parking lots north of the last one. These parking lots are about 2 miles or more apart. We dropped our stuff, my boyfriend went to the beach and luckily there was a spot available at the next parking lot which was 2 miles away. I took a nice 2 mile run to get back to my bofriend. We were able to get a ride to the car after we were done. Law enforcement drove by on their 4 wheelers occasionally but did not bother anyone. It was not overcrowded, obviously, because no one wants to walk 2 miles or more to get there.
