Reports reach the Captain of Golden Sand in the Karpaz area of North Cyprus. My contributors met a middle-aged English couple who were enjoying the sun in the buff at the end of this wonderful beach. They told my reporters that the main reason they choose to come to North Cyprus is this fantastic beach with clear waters, which is miles long. Another report from spring 2007 describes a similar experience.
A May 2007 report confirms that the local authorities have put up signs saying that nude sunbathers could be encountered, though it's unlikely that the local authorities will make this an official nudist beach.

We were at the Golden Beach in September. This was not a normal year; there were many travel restrictions so very few tourists from other countries. But some local tourists. We are a family of 7 people from Turkey. We came with two cars. Road is a bit difficult, you need to drive slow, sometimes big holes. We went to the beach and put our umbrellas. It was very nice naked day. We built a huge sandcastle with the kids, but later we destroyed it again (don’t leave anything back in nature). We met elderly British couple also nudists. They live in Girne Cyprus and come often to the Golden Beach. We were walking all the whole beach. These were the only humans that we saw the whole day but I do not know if that is normal, may be because of Korona.
I was there also alone in 2005. It is quite different; more nature. The restaurant and the bungalows are not any more here. People in the village say the government destroyed them because they were illegal. It looks better more natural now. If you come to Golden Beach, you must know there are no facilities on the beach. No toilet, no shower, no food. So it is important to bring all with you. Just don’t bring bathing suits:) Enjoy!

I went to Golden Sand Beach (Karpaz) in April. Burhan and Teko bungalows no longer in service due to non-compliance with local laws. The beach is much quieter for this reason. During the day the tour buses are pausing for a short time (1 hour). On the first day there were two couples and one male on the beach behind the sand dunes. Because the beach is big, everyone is quite far from their comfort zone. One male, one female, one male sunbathed separately on the part of the sand hill overlooking the textile beach side. There are still long walkers textile people. But they continue their walk without giving any disturbance.

At first week of June I visited Karpaz beach. From Girne to Karpaz beach it [would] take around 2hrs by car. There is not possible to reach Karpaz by public transportation. If you have smartphone with google maps application, just search [for] Burhan’s or Teko’s Bungalows. Road is well maintained mostly. Last 10-14Km more narrow road for drive.
After find Teko’s bungalow’s (there is signpost) park your car. At the beginning of beach there was a sign “Beyond this point you may encounter Nude sunbathers” still existing. Left side mostly used by textiles. Turn right and a little walk you can remove your swimsuits. During 2 days only 2 more couples and one single guy use this section.
Some long walkers can be seen during day. But they turn when they spotted nude people or passing without any interact. Take your own umbrellas and waters before reach Karpaz. There is not any facilities around Karpaz.
During my visit, I didn’t meet with peeping tom. Karpaz is excellent beach for singles or for timers. You can easily spot the persons before they saw you.
