With the Costa de Almeria\u2019s dry and hot climate, this three-kilometre stretch of coastline, designated for being in the buff, makes it a naturist\u2019s paradise and consequently attracts thousands of tourists each year from all over Europe and beyond.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1117\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1117\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vintagetravel.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/nudist-beach-spain.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1117 size-medium\" title=\"nudist beach spain\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vintagetravel.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/nudist-beach-spain-300x201.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"201\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1117\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Vera Playa Natura, Almeria<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Lake Negratin, Cuevas del Campo, Granada<\/h2>\n<p>Negratin is Andalucia\u2019s third biggest reservoir, and with its cosmological landscape accompanied by a ghostly silence, Lake Negratin has an almost eerie magnetism. This remoteness brings a beauty of solitude to the area, making it the perfect place for nature lovers \u2013 in more than one sense of the word. The naturist beach at Lake Negratin does not however have the same accommodating facilities of the coastal nudist resorts. But this is what adds to the charm of this eight-kilometre stretch of naturism. The solitude and romanticism of the beach is favourable for some to a busy resort.<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_1118\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-1118\" style=\"width: 300px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.vintagetravel.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Lake-Negratin-Granada.jpg\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"wp-image-1118 size-medium\" title=\"Lake Negratin, Granada\" src=\"https:\/\/www.vintagetravel.co.uk\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2010\/08\/Lake-Negratin-Granada-300x225.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"225\" \/><\/a><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-1118\" class=\"wp-caption-text\">Lake Negratin, Cuevas del Campo, Granada<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<h2>Playa El Torn, Tarragona, Catalonia<\/h2>\n<p>Nestled amongst a wild and rocky coastline lies Playa El Torn, which despite being a popular nudist beach seems sparsely populated because of the sheer size of the beach.
