Accommodation Quick Reference 

These are the places near the 'main' beaches - ie: those on which you'd generally find other Naturists on a good day. 
 

Many of the beaches not pictured on this website are at least as pleasant as those which are shown, but because of their location - away from main routes or towns - are destinations, rather than an easy day's excursion. 

Northland

Naturist accommodation is most plentiful in this area. It includes Brumar and Bush Haven near Kerikeri,  River Lodge in Waipu and Serendipity Park which is near Maungaturoto. For Whangarei, try Eden Naturaly.

Auckland

Naturist accommodation in Auckland itself is remarkably sparse; the largest of the Naturist clubs (AONC) has cabins available, with an INF passport (ASC has one small cabin). However there's always the option of a visit to one of the Hauraki Islands. 

Upper Central Nth Is, Central NI, Taranaki

For accommodation in the northwest, not far from Raglan, try Aotea Beach Hideaway. In Tauranga the Boatshed Apartments are only 600m from Papamoa's 'nude zone', or try the superb Katikati Naturist Park (30 minutes west). Not far from Opotiki is Ani's Beach Hideaway, overlooking Bryan's Beach.

Gisborne - HB, Lower North Is, Wellington

If you're into the 'Spa Experience' you must try Nirvana Naturally near Waikanae. Naturist accommodation nearer Wellington, is really only at the local: Wellington Naturist club, located near Upper Hutt; 40 km north of Wellington City. Further north is the Hawkes Bay Naturist Club about 20km west of Napier. Their accommodation includes a refurbished farmhouse.

Nelson - Golden Bay - Marlborough

Accommodation includes the Sandcastle, near Takaka, Old MacDonald's Farm near Marahau, by the Abel Tasman National Park. Don't rush through this area, there are lots of options for Naturists in the Golden Bay area. Southwest of Blenheim, be sure to checkout Wai-natur Naturist Park.

Canterbury - Rest of South Island

In general the South Island is a Naturist's paradise - especially Golden Bay and the West Coast; because there are fewer people around, and they seem more relaxed about skinny-dippers than North Islanders. Just south of Christchurch, in Rolleston, is the Pineglades Naturist Club which is likely to have some cabins available.
