Croatia has a long tradition of nudist beaches, and you’ll find them all along the coast, both official and unofficial. I’ve listed them from north to south, with their locations and a map, so finding the right one for you is easy. I think the best way to travel along the coast is by car.

Nudist beaches in Croatia are a real favourite with Slovaks. I’ve put together a list of all the known nudist beaches in Croatia, with a clear description of where each one is. The Croatian coast is full of nature lovers, so I’ve rounded up the FKK naturist beaches in Croatia in one place. The detailed descriptions will help you find each one easily.
Nudist beaches in Croatia: official and unofficial
Whether you’re after beautiful scenery, a clean sea or a few creature comforts, you’re sure to find a nudist beach in Croatia you’ll like. Naturism in Croatia has a long tradition, which is why there are so many beaches here, official and unofficial, where nude bathing is allowed.
There are a lot of them, so I’ll work my way from north to south. There’s a handy map right below this paragraph. If you know a good one I’ve missed, add it in the comments.
TIP: I’ve also written about where to go in Croatia and the best nudist beaches in Slovakia.
Nudist beaches in northern Croatia
Nudist beaches in northern Croatia are popular with Slovaks, as they’re the closest to Slovakia. You can easily get to one without spending hours on end in the car. On the way, you can also stop at the most beautiful national parks in Croatia.
- Bunculuka in Baška, on the island of Krk. The beach is just past the town of Baška, and you can simply walk there along the coast. It belongs to the Bunculuka campsite, and visitors who aren’t staying there pay a fee to use the beach. It’s a long nudist beach and easy to get to. There are also plenty of bars and restaurants, so you won’t go hungry.
- Valalta is an ideal FKK campsite in Istria. The naturist campsite stretches for a full 4 km along the coast and offers accommodation in modern apartments, bungalows or its own mobile homes.
- Punta Križ beach is in Rovinj, and you can also stay at the nearby Amarin and Valdaliso campsites. The start of the beach is a swingers’ beach, and the far end is a gay beach.
