If you’re planning a trip to Buenos Aires and are craving some nude beach time, consider taking a trip to Mar del Plata. While Buenos Aires is bustling with activity, the nearby Playa Escondida offers a tranquil escape with a welcoming atmosphere for gay men and women.
Playa Escondida, translating to “Hidden Beach” in Spanish, is located about 35 km south of Mar del Plata. It’s a clothing-optional beach, with nudism being fully legal and widely embraced. The beach is particularly popular during the Southern Hemisphere’s summer months, from November to March, with December and January being the peak season. During this time, you’ll find the beach lively with many gay men from Latin America enjoying their summer holidays.
The beach is expansive and features various secluded spots, making it comfortable for first-time nudists. In the heart of Playa Escondida, there is a solarium protected from the wind, complete with a swimming pool and deck chairs. Additionally, a bar situated on the hill offers both food and drinks, along with essential washroom facilities.
Although the Atlantic waters can be chilly, Playa Escondida remains a central and significant destination in Mar del Plata. The beach’s atmosphere often encourages even the most hesitant visitors to shed their clothes and join in, making it a vibrant spot for nudism.
