Brighton’s Black Rock Naturist Beach holds a historic place as the UK’s first official public naturist beach, opened on April 1, 1980. Located at the eastern end of Brighton’s main beach, it is easily accessible, just a one-mile walk from Brighton Pier toward Brighton Marina. Clear signage marks the naturist section, ensuring a welcoming environment for visitors.

Known for its convenience and central location, the beach sits directly in front of Dukes Mound, an area that has gained attention as a meeting spot for casual encounters among men. Despite occasional media coverage, Black Rock Naturist Beach remains a popular and inclusive destination, offering a relaxed naturist experience close to Brighton’s vibrant city center.
