Beaches, Resorts and other Locations

New Zealand does not have laws specifically outlining which beaches are 'Official Nude Beaches', Which essentially means that any beach in New Zealand could be a nude beach.
There is however a number of beaches where nudity has historically taken place, and nude sunbathing and swimming frequently occurs.
This is not an exhaustive list, there are many other beaches that you are able to enjoy without a swimsuit, however we hope that this will serve as a starting point.

Note:some of the more popular beaches have their own subpage, many are only listed in their regions.
