Seems a lot of posts in lots of places about Serignan Plage. We have used it for the past 2 years while renting a villa nearby so here is up to date information.
You can park car within a couple of hundred yards of the naturist beach, it is next to the naturist camp/caravan site who share the beach. There is plenty of room as the 500 metre naturist section has very loose ends, lovely sandy beach and not as windy as some on this coast. There is a café/bar on the beach but it is attached to the textile part of the camp site, hence you have to don shorts to get what you need (it is only a short distance into textile area) and then remove them without spilling your drinks etc., bring your own shade and one of those natty sand screws to put it into!

I quite agree with Bobbledoit about Sérignan Plage. I personally have a slight preference for La Grand Cosse (in spite of the mosquitoes), but Sérignan Place is OK. The (much bigger) textile part of the camp site has all the amenities that you may wish - if you are ready to dress. The beach is fine and, as Bobbledoit writes, not too windy - wind is the bane of that part of the French Med coast. If on the contrary you need wind, for instance for windsurfing, then go further West to Port-Leucate.

A word of caution regarding the car park near the naturist section of Sérignan Plage.  After heavy rain it becomes a quagmire! On occasions we have seen cars get into real difficulties there. Otherwise this beach is one of our favourites.

This morning, 28th November 2014, Sérignan was hit by a tornado - an unexpected occurrence, even though the weather conditions had been awful there for the last day or two. The very nature of tornadoes is to hit very limited areas, and I have not read anywhere that the naturist camping site had been hit, although the part of the village that was hit was that close to the beach (known globally as "Sérignan-Plage").

The south-east has had disastrous weather all through the autumn, with repeated flooding and several deaths. There's a severe weather alert there this morning (November 29) and news of a death. Doubtless it will be cleared up before the tourists arrive in summer but south-east France hasn't been a place to be in the last month or two.

The wind is howling and the rain lashing down even here in the south-west, and this is just the edge of the weather.

happy days

Quite agree with most of above....quiet, friendly beach with refreshments just on textile side of boundary outside the campsite. Big car park with 200yds to beach, plenty of room, we much prefer it to other naturist beaches on this stretch of coastline.
