A thing about naturism in Greece..
Whilst naturism is fairly commonplace throughout the islands and beaches of Greece it is only officially endorsed in a few specifically designated spots. That said, with over 200 islands, each with any number of remote beaches and coves there is no shortage of beautiful un-official nudist beaches to choose from.
Attitudes can be quite conservative on the Greek islands which goes some way to explaining the lack of officially sanctioned naturist beaches. However, by and large the authorities are not at all interested in rounding up naturists. In fact going topless is pretty much universal throughout the islands. And provided you aren't front and centre on one of the popular family beaches you probably won't raise too many eyebrows.
Practically all of the main islands in Greece have at least one or two nude beaches. Although these won't be officially recognised many have been established for decades without incident. In fact on the island of Poutsonissi public nudity is illegal, but the law also states that to make an arrest the officer must also be naked. Suffice to say no one has ever been arrested!
