Portugal
A huge beach, and the most popular one for nudists in the Lisbon area. The cliff and views from the pine groves above it are truly beautiful. There are natural springs and mud pits for skin cleansing and it feels wild and natural, but is only 35kms from central Lisbon. The Restaurants and trendy haunts in nearby Meco Village (walking distance) are great.
About 35kms south of Lisbon from Lisbon. Take the A2 South Highway towards Sesimbra and after Fernão Ferro turn right to Alfarim and Aldeia do Meco, and right again to the beaches.
Ericeira is a fishing village 50km northeast of Lisbon. It has the most beautiful beach, which is not as busy than those of cliched Estoril or Cascais. The hospitality of its people, the harmony of the old village with its narrow cobblestone streets, the characteristic housing, the sea, the fishing, the cuisine and the bold Atlantic views all interlace here in a grand way to welcome its visitors.
Buses run from Lisbon's Campo Grande terminal. Journey time: 1 hr 30 mins;
