The Captain hears that the beach on the island Despotiko, facing Agios Georgios (in the south of Antiparos) is a great beach. You can get there by fisherboat. Ask Captain Pipinos in his tavern. This Captain would welcome further reports!

2012: The trip to Despotico is wonderful and well worth the time and 20 Euros. Go to the two tavernas on the waterfront at Agios Georgios and ask for Captain Pipinos. There is a sign with his mobile on it. He will usually book you in for a trip a day or two in advance with trips in the morning and pick up in the late afternoon. He will drop you off at a landing point opposite Agios Georgios from where you can visit the Ancient Temple of Apollo and then pick you up again and drop you off close to a narrow sandy beach that was completely deserted when we visited so we could sunbathe nude all afternoon. Someone has put up umbrellas on the beach so there is shade but food and water are essential. A wonderful day in the buff and the good captain will pick you up at a pre-arranged time. We actually phoned him to put back our pick-up by an hour it was such bliss. The trip finishes off with a trip to the local sea arch before heading back to Agios Georgios and a seafood dinner. Lovely.

Captain Sargos drops off at Livadi Beach on the south coast of Despotika. A fantastic beach for swimming and a number of the 30 or so visitors were nude. All very easy going. But I can see nude bathing and exploring being problematic in high season or when larger boats deposit their passengers.
