whenever anyone asks me this for warm weather, I say, "South of France" near "Nice, Cote D'Azur" in "France."
There are many locations if you read about them on Wikipedia, (name of article is "List of Places where Social Nudity is Practised")
Island of Levant, near Cannes, is near Nice international airport.
Heliopolis resort town on the Island might be good spot for visiting.
I never went there personally.
I only have read about it.
Other "warm" Destinations: See "List of Places where Social Nudity is Practised" article on English Wikipedia.
Portugal South Coast area that is named the Algarve (find specific nude beaches in Wikipedia or printed travel guide books suited to the area.)
Haulover Nude Beach Area, Haulover Beach, Haulover Park, Miami, Florida state in the USA.
Italy nude beaches (look them up on Wikipedia.)
Look up the specifically official nude beaches for the Canary Islands in Spain (look them up on Wikipedia or in a printed travel guide book.)
Crete in Greece has several officially nude beaches. Look them up on Wikipedia or travel guides to find them.
Thailand (Check) Wikipedia lists several hotels or resorts with nudist pools and nudist beaches and resorts in beach cities. Check before visiting by calling or emailing to check on the resorts.
Check the reliability of the sources and judge for yourself before trying to verify claims. Try to watch out for information claimed without being backed and verified with reliable sources when using Wikipedia.
If each article linked mentions a reliable source as the backing for the information of each location, the source writers on the mentioned pages will show a specific web page of the website of each cited source inside the references section and the links section of each page. That should work if you can find "Up To Date Information" and reliable pages linked from Wikipedia.
Not every location will have reliable information, so just visit the areas listed that have a description on Wikipedia that should provide sources of reliable information inside the reference citations inside of the Wikipedia articles.

J.Jan 2, 2025This time of year I would think even southern Europe along the Mediterranean would risk being cold. I have been to Haulover this time of year and it can be warm, but has the same risk. I would start in the Caribbean (Orient Beach in St. Martin is our go-to this time of year), then look at Zipolite in Mexico, and then look to the southern hemisphere... South America or South Africa. The OP is in New York, so direct flights to St. Martin are pretty abundant.

MarcusJan 3, 2025In Europe I would visit Fuertoventura or the other neighbour islands. The other places which were mentioned are too cold.

Oh. I did not have an idea that they closed in winter in Southern Europe.
So sorry. I had no Idea it got very cold at Haulover in the water. Those are the destinations I am most familiar with.
So sorry.
I suppose South America and Indonesia during the January Southern Hemisphere summer works
I suppose the beaches like Praio do Abrico in Rio de Janeiro in Brazil in South America are good.
A city near the coast in Uruguay called Maldonado, Uruguay, in South America, has a good nude beach and is officially naturist.
Other cities in several other South American Nations have naturist beaches.
Northern Australia might be nice.
New Zealand has beaches all over the country and usually is warmer in January.
Indonesia has Bali where people can stay at naturist resorts.
South Africa apparently has nude beaches. One should read about them on official sources and naturist sources before planning.
Those might work for January because It is summer in the Southern Hemisphere.
Check for reliable sources if you can. Buy Up-To-Date travel guide books for proposed destinations to see if you can find naturist or nudist beaches there before going. Get information other people put on here and try to match sources here with updated reliable information if possible.

Tom DJan 4, 2025Unfortunately Queensland is the warmest state in Australia and the only one without any nude beaches.
ReactReply - MEMemberJan 4, 2025
Ah. Oh no!
Well Australia is inaccurate for Southern summer activities then, unless New South Wales has some good summers. I hear there are some nude beaches there.

Yes, they do have those and it is summer there right now. I was unsure if they are hot in the summer in the cooler climates in Victoria and New South Wales and Tasmania.
I do not know about the climate of the cities that have the beaches, except that Western Australia and parts of South Australia that are a desert and might be too hot in the summer to visit.
I thought the temperatures of Northern WA and the desert areas of South Australia are like blistering temperatures in Southern Hemisphere summer above 110 degrees in Fahrenheit Scale of temperature.
Yes, Australia has a lot of nude beaches, except in QLD where there is not any legally allowed nude beaches. I had read Wikipedia about Australia over a long time ago in time.
There are plenty of resorts in australia, but QLD doesn't have official nudist beaches. I am so sorry.
I hope the other nice places mentioned in south America or Bali or New Zealand can be accessible.

I have been to NSW twice in summer and once in early fall. Plenty warm enough for the beach.

I thought so that it was nice in New South Wales in summer, which is right now. Maybe it is really really nice in Adelaide area, especially Kangaroo Island, South Australia. Perth also should be nice. Melbourne Area and parts of Victoria also have had nice beaches, though I am sure one has to look up which ones are nudist beaches on Wikipedia and on more reputable sources. Tasmania must be very nice if coastal New Zealand is nice in the summer, but I just don't know.
Wikipedia lists several nudist beaches in South America, someone would have to check for websites locally for such sources of information.
New Zealand has some policy of nudity being tolerated at many if not most beaches, so one would have to look into that on Wikipedia or see if that is a reliable claim elsewhere.

New Zealand has a reputation for being nude tolerant at some beaches and hot springs, but I don't know the details. There is also a rugby team in New Zealand that plays nude!ReactReply

I love reading about Sunnyside beach on this website and on Wikipedia. So much information here and on Wikipedia.
Yes, that is so interesting, all of that sounds fascinating to hear about. New Zealand must be a top destination in Southern Hemisphere summers for naturism. Lots of beaches permit beach nudity there, and one should get a beach travel guide about the beaches in New Zealand, or get a comprehensive travel guide. Very interesting place New Zealand is, I have heard some good things about it from people who have visited.
