I found myself in Brighton last Summer and thought I would give the naturist beach another try after a gap of about 10 years except for attending a few WNBR after-partys which are not exactly typical days. I like many others had given upon this as a naturist venue due to to it's bad reputation for gawking, inappropriate behaviour etc. Overall I have to say I was pleasantly surprised on the two days I was there, both warm sunny ones. There was a reasonable number of users though despite the size being reduced from what it was there was still plenty of space. The crowd there was fairly mixed with quite a range of ages and a fair few women which I hadn't expected, either on their own, in little groups or part of a couple. The atmosphere was quite relaxed and I didn't notice anything objectionable going on . The end nearest the Marina seemed to be a bit of a gay enclave though again there was no overt "cruising" activity to be seen. I know you can't infer too much from a few hours experience but it does seem that this is becoming a lot more civilised which is good as it is about the only beach in this country easily accessible from a city. Maybe now Brighton is firmly established as the alternative capital of Britain it is attracting more residents in sympathy with naturism who are slowly starting to reclaim the beach.
So for anyone going to Brighton - take a look - you may enjoy it or maybe not but its worth giving it a try.

Thanks for the review! Such an easily accessible beach will perhaps naturally be more likely to have issues with inappropriate behaviour. Good to know you didn't see anything of the sort.

Sounds like a fun place to visit!

Congratulations on the good experience. I hope to have some like it someday.
