From the A1068 heading north, go past the turn-off on the left to Red Row (B1330). The next turn on the right is a little lane that leads a mile or so down to the dunes. You can park at the end. Take the path towards the dunes, turn right onto the cycle/bridleway and follow it for 1/200 yards until it turns away to the right. At that point, go through the stile to the left. Ahead of you you'll see an open gap between the dunes that is the mouth of the Chevington Burn. Cross over this and head for the dunes immediately to the south of it. The area used by nudists stretches for the one or two hundred yards immediately south of the burn.

It is an official naturist area in a secluded position with convenient free parking opposite the beach.
NOT YET BUFF REVIEWEDSHOREHAM, WEST SUSSEX
This beach a few miles west of Brighton is in an unlikely industrial location. A high wall behind the beach shields nudists from seeing the unsightly industry going on just a stone's throw away and provides a sound barrier as well. More importantly, the wall is an essential privacy screen. The beach is rather stark but well attended, and Brighton area naturists tend to prefer this beach to the much maligned East Beach (see the next listing).

St. Osyth lies south of the B1027 road from Colchester to Clacton-on-Sea. Proceeding from Clacton, go west on the B1027 from its junction with the A133 for just over two miles and take a minor road on the left signposted 'St. Osyth'. Head due south from St Osyth - Beach Road and to the end of the road in Hutley's Caravan Park. This reaches a dead end at the seawall with a car park pub and cafe just on the left. From there go over sea wall on to the beach (or through gate in wall during day time), turn right (west) and walk one mile to reach the naturist beach - slow and rather difficult walking on the small shingle. The dirt road which used to give access to the beach is no longer in existence, having been destroyed by storms in the winter of 2003-4.
