Hi All

Does anyone have any information on the nude beach situation in South Africa?
Is it legal, are there any designated beaches, is it safe to do?
And also does anyone have any naturist accomodation recomendations, we are arriving in Port Elizabeth and leave from Durban.

Thanks

I used to live in South Africa and I am currently in communication with the major naturist organisations and resorts in the country in my capacity as the BN Holiday Advisor for South Africa.
Nudism is not officially legal in the country but the authorities tend to turn a blind eye to historically accepted naturist venues. Durban has an unofficial naturist beach near Umhlanga on the coast north of Durban. The Hooting Owl is a resort near  Durban which offers naturist friendly accommodation. Naturist facilities around Port Elizabeth are virtually non-existent, however there is the well known naturist beach at Sandy Bay near Cape Town. Butt Nothing is a self-catering naturist accommodation venue near Port Elizabeth. If you require more detailed information please send me a direct message.

[color=rgb(40, 40, 40)]The South African National Naturist Association have established an online petition to use as part of the information they will be using to lobby the local Council to approve the application for the first official naturist beach in South Africa. [color=rgb(40, 40, 40)]Naturism is gradually becoming more popular in South Africa since the demise of the Apartheid government prior to Nelson Mandela leading the ANC came to power.

[color=rgb(40, 40, 40)]The South African National Naturist Association need all the help they can get to promote naturism in the country so I appeal to NC members to support them by signing the petition ->

[color=rgb(40, 40, 40)]South Africa is becoming another country worth visiting for great holidays in Africa and with more naturist venues opening up there are more opportunities to include some naturist relaxation and activities in your overall holiday itinerary.

🚨🚨 It has been approved! 🚨🚨
THANK YOU! to each & every one who took the time to sign the petition for 1st official naturist beach in South Africa.
The proposal by the SANNA was approved by the local municipality today. This is fantastic news for naturism in South Africa and worldwide. While naturist beaches are being closed in other countries, South Africa is opening new official naturist beaches.
