Many of the ancient Gods came from this area and also for the naked traveler the options here are plentiful. If you want a great naturist holiday within Europe, Greece is certainly a place where you want to go! Have you seen the Extended Version of this guide?

While topless sunbathing can be found almost everywhere in Greece, true nude beaches are a little harder to find. Greece has an abundance of bare sand beaches, some much barer and better than others. If you have never been to a nude beach before, you will probably not be able to fully understand the mentality behind it. It is not about offending anyone, especially those who insist on wearing their swimsuits while enjoying their time at the seashore, but rather about the personal sensation of getting in touch with the forces of nature without any barriers between you and them. Well, if you ever wish to give it a shot, here are some of the best places to be naked in Greece. Red Beach, Crete: Crete ranks first in offering sandy beaches to people wishing to live outside the standardized moral rules of modern society. Located in southern Crete and some 25 minutes away from Matala, Red Beach is hidden behind a rocky hill and a fence and provides a little heaven for naked swimmers.

The country is known for its clothing-optional bathing areas, although almost all of them are not official nude beaches. Mykonos, which was one of the first islands to be discovered by tourists, attracted hippies and naturists, and continues to be a favorite of those looking for a holiday in the sun au naturel. There are no official nude beaches, but a few do usually have a considerable number of nude sunbathers, usually concentrated on one side of the beach, away from the bars and sunbeds, and usually fewer in number during the most crowded days of July and August, especially on weekends. Although the island is no longer the nudist paradise it once was, you can be sure to find a spot for you.

This is less a guide and more the relating of my limited experience and knowledge of nude and topless beaches on Paros. Like so many other subjects involving social mores naturalism is constantly evolving. What I read before coming to Greece seven years ago no longer seems to be true. For instance now you will occasionally see younger Greek girls topless; earlier mainly Scandinavians and Germans were going bare.
