Paligremnos Beach, Nudist beach in Rethymno, Greece.
The beach features golden sand and transparent waters, with rocky cliffs on both sides creating natural boundaries for added privacy.
The location gained recognition in the 1980s when international travelers discovered this secluded spot along the Cretan coastline.
Local communities maintain a respectful distance, acknowledging the beach's status as an unofficial clothing-optional destination for both Greeks and visitors.
Visitors need to bring their own supplies, including water, food, and sun protection, as there are no facilities or vendors at this remote location.
The natural rock formations surrounding the beach create separate coves where naturists can enjoy complete seclusion from neighboring areas.
