The gay end
The nudist beach at the south end of Faliraki bay. The boys are by the trees.
Crowd A clothing-optional beach the boys have made their own: a gay-majority crowd, a beach bar that knows it, and friends you have not met yet.
Getting there
Walk south along Faliraki beach to the end, or park by the Ladiko road and take the track down.
The rules
Tolerated. Not designated, but going without swimwear has been the custom for years and is left alone. Rules and patrols can change, so read the signs when you arrive.
No photos of anyone, sunscreen everywhere, cover up the moment you leave the clothing-optional stretch, and head home with the light. Sunbathe, swim and keep the beach respectful for everyone.
