A beautiful sandy beach, length 6 km, situated 3 km outside Gythio town, in southern Peloponnese, in Laconia the distance is 3 hours drive from Athens. There are 3 camping sites; “Meltemi”, “Gythion Bay” and “Mani Beach”. The beach is easily accessed. On its one end near the rocks it’s completely isolated and reportedly ideal for nudism.

2009 June found no part of the beach isolated, but a walk along the whole beach would probably have produced a spot where nudism was possible.

2017 August: During high season no part of the beach was isolated and no nudist section. Although, as the sunset comes, the beach gets empty, making the places far from the parasols promising for late evening or night nudism and swimming.

2018 July: Nudism impossible all over the beach due to the tourist invasion. One more paradise lost.

2020 June: Very few people were on the beach, so it was easy to find a spot to strip. Especially in 2 spots: a) east of Camping Gytheion Bay and b) east of Ktima Petalea.
We were there early July a mid day. Nobody was naked. Few bathers, all dressed, at these nice spots east of Camping Gytheion Bay and east of Ktima Petalea. We left the beach and went to Vathi.
