The number two spot, Spiaggia Della Lecciona in Tuscany, Italy, has been a popular gay beach since the ’70s and is one of the region’s last free beaches, with no admission charge and no permanent deckchairs or umbrellas allowed.
Situated on the banks of the Ligurian Sea, the Spiaggia Della Lecciona beach was topped on the list only by Lokrum Island in Dubrovnik, Croatia (see photo below). Third place went to Maslin Beach in Adelaide, Australia.
According to MyDatingAdvisor, Spiaggia Della Lecciona has an average air temperature of 84°F and an average water temperature of 77°F. The average cost of a hotel per night in the area is $185.
To determine the best skinny dipping locations, MyDatingAdviser compared 100 nude beaches across the globe to determine the best locations to enjoy a skinny dip. They then ranked the top skinny dipping locations in Australia.

Here are some tips for having a fun time skinny dipping:
Be respectful and have discretion. Try not to traumatize any small kids. We agree the human body is a beautiful thing but give people the opportunity not to look at you if they don’t want to.
Don’t forget sunscreen and bug spray. You don’t want to get a sunburn in that spot that usually doesn’t see the light of day.
Don’t skinny dip drunk. A little liquid courage could help you get naked. But if you are completely drunk, it isn’t safe to swim and could land you in a dangerous situation.
Beware of leeches. With a bathing suit, they are one thing, and when you are stark naked it’s another.
Make sure your friends are comfortable. If everyone is happy to strip down, then go for it.
Keep your eyes on people’s faces. Interact as you normally would and keep physical contact to a minimum.
No photos. If only celebrities and politicians could learn this too.
It’s not a big deal. Get over yourself and have fun. Remember that not even swimsuit models look like that in real life. So, relax and enjoy being naked.
