• Great beach!

  4.00

  Great beach! Albeit small, it's very private, and only people who know about it go there. It's nice to know others who are nudists go there. It is a long walk to get to it, but it's worth it. The walk back isn't as bad.

  Pros: small, private

  Cons: long walk to get to it

• 2017 visit to Crystal Crescent

  Was the first time that I went to Crystal Crescent beach... was a bit hard to find without GPS, ( had detoured into Halifax before getting out the GPS. took about 40 minutes after that to get there. Large gravel parking lot for a lot of cars. nice walkway to get to the beach. Not knowing where the nude beach was.. headed across the rocks to explore. was a bit of an adventure going across the rocks. pathway that is on the left as you look at the water when you arrive in the parking lot takes you there. about a 10-15 minute walk. you arrive at the top of the hill and you can see the beach. It wa…

  Pros: white sandy beach, not too long a walk. beautiful views, walking trails nearby to explore (have to be clothed). nice people that will talk to you.

  Cons: no bathrooms nearby. water, being on the Atlantic it is expected to be cold, and it was. beach area is small compared to what I am used to at Kelly's Beach as it is a few km long. . no nearby camping spots that I could find... there may be some, .....

• Sadly overall a bit of a disappointment

  2.00

  A beautiful location but very small in fact the beach is TINY - with maybe 25 people on the beach on a warm September weekend it felt crowded and not even everyone that was there was completely naked. The coast path runs directly behind the beach so also a constant procession of clothed people of all ages wandering past. There is a larger clothed beach closer to the parking but that rather defeats the object.

  Pros: A beautiful walk along the path from the parking to get to the beach and beyond if you feel like it. The path beyond the beach is not 'maintained' so be prepared for scrabbling up steps, over rocks etc but worth it for the views and peace and quiet

  Cons: The beach is very small.

• Amazing north Atlantic nude beach experience

  5.00

  Very inviting place.rBit of a hike under the hot east coast summer sun, but good in a way.rOnce you hit the 3rd beach (nude one) you are ready to strip off and dive in!rYellow sand beach with a natural lagoon at certain times of day due to tidal action.rWater gets quite warm in the lagoon, but can smell a bit if you are not used to kelp (that also gets trapped).rA giant rock provides shelter from high winds, and the location is very peaceful.rrLots of free parking at the trail head (gets full in the summer), with some facilities (outhouses).

  Pros: removed, sand beach, natural lagoon (warm water)

  Cons: hike back to parking lot to use the facilities, chilly water outside the lagoon (it IS the Atlantic after all)
