Newborough Warren, Malltraeth Bay Anglesey: Newborough Warren and the nearby beach at Malltraeth Bay are situated at the south-west corner of the island of Anglesey - 'Ynys Mon' in the Welsh langauge. Described as having "breathtaking landscape and unspoilt sands" and " superb views of Snowdonia and the Lleyn Peninsular" this is one of several beautiful beaches along this part of the coast. Newborough Warren is also a nature reserve. The beach itself is of fine, golden sand, backed by dunes. On-shore winds from the Irish Sea can be a problem at times. It is said that naturists used to gather in an area to the south of the car park - midway between Llanddwyn Island and Abermenai Point - but increased numbers of textile beach-goers forced then to move to remoter spots.

Morfa Dyffryn: Acclaimed by regular users as one of the best beaches in the UK, Morfa Dyffryn is located on the Welsh coast between Harlech and Barmouth and is about 2 -3 hours drive from Manchester and the West Midlands. this location has been used by naturists since the mid-1930's and it's one of the best naturist beaches in the UK. On fine Sundays in the summer, up to 500 visitors can be found using the mile long naturist section of the beach. Morfa Dyffryn beach itself is ENORMOUS, even the part used by naturists is about 1 mile in length - and to the rear of that are hundreds of acres of peaceful dunes and scrubland between the beach and the airfield. All of this can be and is used by naturists.

The beach is off the A496 Barmouth to Harlech road about 4 miles north of Barmouth. Between the villages of Talybont and Dyffryn Ardudwy turn seawards into Fford Benar Lane (signposted "Traeth" - Welsh for beach), a small chapel at this junction makes it easy to see. One mile down this very narrow (in places) lane are toilets and just beyond a free car park, this has height barriers and is therefore unsuitable for van/campers etc. Follow the marked path through the dunes to the beach, turn right and walk for 25 mins (average), the naturist beach was once easily recognised by a WW2 pill box sticking out halfway up the dunes.

Swan Lake Bay west of Manorbier, Pembroke
Marros: Marros beach is located on Carmarthen Bay on the south coast of Wales, between Pendine and Amroth, near Saundersfoot. The beach is secluded and quiet, clean and mostly sandy but reduces to pebbles and shingle at high tide. Naturist use is reported at the western end, beyond the rocks (about 1/2 mile from the access point). The remainder of the beach is used at times by textiles and families and a few walkers may use the beach at low tide as an alternative to the Coast Path. Use discretion. At high tide this route is cut off and access is only from the inland direction - take note of tide times before walking this stretch of beach.
Pembrey Forest: Pembrey Forest (also known as Cefn Sidan) is near Burry Port, Carmarthenshire. From Llanelli or Carmarthen take the A484 to Pembrey, west of Burry Port. There is a car park at the Pembrey Country Park. From there, walk out to the coast and head west (i.e. turn right) along the beach for about 20 minutes until you reach the section used by naturists.
The beach is clean sand, backed by the trees of Pembrey Forest and has been described as "a beautiful location for nude sun and sea bathing". However, swim with caution, as there may be unpredictable currents at certain states of the tide.

Whitford Burrows / Rhossili Bay: Whitford Burrows and Rhossili Bay are located on the western end of the Gower peninsula, west of Swansea in South Wales.
The Gower may be reached from the eastbound M4 via Swansea and the A4118 . For Rhosilli, turn right on to the B4247 just beyond Knelston. Whitford Burrows are located to the north and you should aim to get to Llanmadoc - via the A411 / B4271 or alternatively by way of the B4295 from Gowerton.
Once at Llanmadoc, park and walk along a track leading in a NW direction to the coast. Follow the path past 'Cwm Ivy Farm' downhill and just before you reach the beach turn right in front of a wooded area and follow the path which takes you past a cottage and parallel to the beach. After about 20 minutes walk, a path turns left down to the sea - reaching the beach by way of the dunes.
Graves End, Pwlldu Bay: Gower Peninsular
Kenfig Burrows, Sker / Morfa Beach), South Wales: This is a long stretch of sandy beach between Porthcawl and Port Talbot adjacent to Kenfig Burrows.
Kenfig Burrows are popular with locals but do not get the attention they deserve. It is a beautiful, clean and tranquil place, with plenty of room to spread out for those who wish to be alone, or larger areas for those who want to socialise. It can be reached at any time, - access being gained from the landward side - and there is no hurry to leave because the shingle prevents the sea from cutting you off at high tide. Note that swimming conditions may be dangerous - especially near the river. As always, local information should be sought before risking life and limb.
