Can single guys go to nude beaches by themselves or are they only for women and couples ?

At least in Europe, nobody will see you as a "sexual predator" when you're on your own as a single man at a nude beach. There are many single men, and also women, at the beach. It's innocent nudity.

Anyone can go to a nude beach...as opposed to private clubs, some of which might have a policy of not allowing single males, most nude beaches are open to the public and can’t discriminate against single men.

You lack confidence. Just go and have fun. That's kind of the point at one of those places. Let go of your inhibitions and insecurities.

I started going to nude beaches as a single guy when I was quite young and remember a couple of times getting appreciative glances from older women. I was not considered to be a sexual predator at all. Had I not been naked it might have been different though 😊

Most nude beaches are very laid back and there are a lot of single guys. I've been on several while traveling on business and it's never been a issue. There were never any weird feelings, and if you keep to yourself you're generally seen as safe. If you drop your towel too close to anyone, or position yourself so you can get a better view of someone, you probably will be seen as creepy.

The only beach restriction I've ever encountered was when my wife and went to Couples Negril in Jamaica. Their section of beach set aside for nude was was nude required, and both husband and wife had to be there.

Nudist resorts sometimes have a single male quota.

So it seems my lack of social self confidence bites me on the arse again... grrrr

Beside, I don't have a sexy 6-pack gym body. I had a 'dad bod' and a small penis that might as well not be there most of the time. It only gets to just over 5 inch erect and that's not enough for almost every woman.

That said I realise the idea of nude beaches is not for sexual predation but freedom of being sans-clothes without being judged, but people who are not sexy/beautiful automatically get 'judged' by everyone else.

I can Guarantee you there are a lot more single guys on Naturist Beaches then couples and single women, just be yourself

Same etiquette as if you have your clothes on. Don't stare, pay unwanted attention to individuals, etc.

You might be imagining these athletic "beach bodies" running around.
The reality is that you would probably see things that would leave mental scars.

Why would anyone want to subject themselves to that?

One thing this discussion shows is that we all have a huge difference of opinions to body positivity and nudity. I am very uncomfortable being nude in public because I don't feel confident being nude. I'm trying to overcome that fear.

Lots of single men do. They are the majority

I've been going to nude beaches for years. It only felt odd the first few minutes I was there. BTW, there have always been far more men than women.

We (hubby and I) often go to naturist beaches and there are always a lot of single men there, all sizes and shapes and ages.

I don’t think anyone would want to see me there, unless they have a robust sense of humour.
