- WOLIN
The island Wolin is known for its long
beaches, steep chalk coast and vast deciduous forests. Although belonging
to Poland today it is easy to reach from Germany.
A 3 km long naturist beach ("Pla┐a naturystyczna") can
be found between the villages Swinnemⁿnde (ªwinouj╢cie) and Misdroy
(MiΩdzyzdroje). There are some hotels, camping sites and restaurants in
these villages.

- úEBA ZACHODNIA- A beach is located in western side of the channel. At Turystyczna Street you can find two camping-sites: "INTERCAMP" and No 21. Both camping sites are located at S│owi±ski National Park. Naturist beach is located about 1.5 - 2 km in western direction from textile beach (you can go there by Turystyczna Street) but úeba is very popular and it is very crowded place.

The beach is not populated so it is an ideal place for quiet rest.
- D╩BKI - one of the most beautiful beaches on the Polish Coast of the Baltic Sea. Nude beach is located about 500 m (in western direction) from the mouth of Pia╢nica River.
DΩbki is a small fishing village but it is not a place for quiet rest: this place is popular among rich youngsters who want to have a good fun.
You can easily get to DΩbki from Gdynia or Wejherowo. But be careful: it is a small fishing village near Karwia, not DíBKI near Koszalin.
This nude beach is marked on the map Wybrze┐e Ba│tyku and is mentioned in many tourists guides as the only "official" one in Poland (But what means "official"?).
- KARWIA - We confirmed that nude beach still exists here. However we have to reprint our old data (we suspect that the beach is located towards DΩbki):
So called "roving" beach. When textile beach is not crowded naturists can stay close to main entrance. In the season naturist beach moves in both directions outside textile beach.
- CHAúUPY - The oldest (since 60's) naturist beach in Poland. About 30-40 minutes to begin and 40-50 minutes to its central part in direction of Ku╝nica Helska. About 3-4 km long of beautiful sandy beach fenced by pine forest.
Cha│upy is a fishing village located on Hel Peninsula. It can be easily accessed by car, bus or train (from Gdynia).

- PIASKI (sometimes called Nowa Karczma) is a small fishing village located 12 km east from Krynica Morska. It is the last locality at Mierzeja Wi╢lana, just at Polish-Russian frontier. Ideal place for a quiet rest but touristic infrastructure is more than small.
Although a beach at frontier is not populated you will hardly see a naked people there (but topless is much more scarce!). Nude beach is located in western direction from the main textile beach (about 2 km).
If you are going by a car you can leave it at guarded parking place in a forest (7 PLN per hour in 1997). Driving from Krynica Morska you will see a writing pla┐a nudyst≤w 10 km (nude beach 10 km) so you only have to check you car counter. At the parking place you will see a sign :
