About this place
Bare RV Resort is a clothing-optional campground in Land O Lakes, about 30 minutes north of Tampa. It's designed for RVers and campers who want a relaxed, social nudist experience without the scale or intensity of larger resorts. You'll find full hookup RV sites, tent camping spots, and a few overnight accommodations if you don't have your own rig. The property isn't huge, but it packs in the basics: a pool and hot tub for lounging, volleyball courts (including water volleyball in the pool), tennis, and hiking trails that wind through Florida scrub and pine. There's a restaurant and bar on-site, plus regular entertainment like live music or themed weekends. It's more low-key than the mega-resorts nearby—think potlucks and campfire vibe rather than nightclub energy. First-timers often worry about feeling exposed or awkward. Most guests here are friendly, regular folks who just prefer being nude outdoors. You're not required to be naked everywhere, and no one's watching or judging. The crowd skews older, especially on weekdays, but families and younger visitors show up on weekends. If you're new to social nudism, this is a decent starting point—small enough to feel approachable, active enough that you're not the only one there.
Etiquette & ground rules
Nudity is expected at the pool, hot tub, and sports courts, but optional elsewhere on the property. Always carry a towel to sit on—bare skin doesn't go directly on shared surfaces. Don't stare or make comments about other people's bodies. Photography is strictly prohibited unless you have explicit permission from everyone in frame, and even then, keep it to your own campsite. Respect quiet hours, usually after 10 or 11 PM. If you're visiting for the day without staying overnight, check in at the office first and pay the day-use fee. Kids are welcome, but supervision is your responsibility. Alcohol is allowed, but public intoxication isn't tolerated.

Apollo Beach
Apollo Beach is the northern entrance to Canaveral National Seashore, accessed from New Smyrna Beach in Volusia County. The seashore is a 24-mile undeveloped barrier island; Apollo's road ends at parking lot 5, after which the trail-only Klondike Beach stretches south for roughly 12 miles to Playalinda Beach's lot 13 (the seashore's better-known naturist destination). Informal clothing-optional use at Apollo concentrates around lot 5 and the walk-in zone heading south into Klondike — the further you walk, the more reliably nude the beach becomes. This isn't an officially designated nude beach. The National Park Service has tolerated naturist use at this southern stretch of Apollo for decades, but rangers will enforce the standard public-indecency rule against anyone behaving disruptively. The setting is raw Florida coastline: wide flat sand, low dunes, scrub vegetation, no shade, no lifeguards, no facilities beyond vault toilets at the parking lots. Kennedy Space Center launch pads are visible to the south. Bring everything for the day — water, sun protection, food. The lack of commercial infrastructure is the appeal: undeveloped Atlantic coastline you can't find at any developed Florida beach.

Blind Creek Beach
Blind Creek Beach is one of Florida's officially-designated clothing-optional beaches — a roughly half-mile stretch on Hutchinson Island in St. Lucie County, about 7 miles south of Fort Pierce. It's one of only a small number of US beaches where local government has formally designated a naturist section: in 2014, St. Lucie County set aside 36 acres at Blind Creek for clothing-optional use, supported by the volunteer Treasure Coast Naturists community group. The beach itself sits on the Atlantic side of Hutchinson Island, backed by low dunes and sea grape vegetation. The naturist section is between Blind Creek Park (the southern access) and a marked boundary to the north. North of that boundary the beach continues as a textile public beach toward Pepper Park; south, the C/O section connects to undeveloped state-preserve coastline. The crowd is family-tolerant per Treasure Coast Naturists' positioning, with a mix of Florida regulars, snowbirds in winter, and visitors from the broader Treasure Coast tourist economy. The beach skews quieter than Haulover to the south or Playalinda to the north — partly because of its lower-profile location, partly because of the smaller parking capacity. The 20-or-so spaces fill on summer weekends and during snowbird winter weeks; otherwise the beach is usually relaxed. Conditions are typical Treasure Coast Atlantic — wide sand beach, moderate-to-strong surf depending on weather, frequent sea turtle nesting in summer (the beach is part of designated nesting habitat), and the standard Florida-coast sun-and-sand setup. Portable restrooms are provided at the parking lot.

Guana Reserve Middle Beach
Guana Reserve Middle Beach is a stretch of undeveloped Atlantic coast within the Guana Tolomato Matanzas National Estuarine Research Reserve, about 10 miles north of St. Augustine, Florida. The reserve covers 73,000 acres of coastal wetlands, beaches, and barrier island habitat between the Intracoastal Waterway and the Atlantic Ocean, managed by the Florida Department of Environmental Protection. The clothing-optional tradition occupies a middle section of the reserve's beach, accessible by a hike from the northern beach parking area or by driving the northern section of the beach with a beach driving permit. The beach is wide, flat, and undeveloped — no concessions, no lifeguards, no development behind the dunes. This is working conservation land, and the trade-off for the wild setting is the absence of any facility infrastructure. The GTM Reserve is one of the last relatively undeveloped stretches of Florida Atlantic coast. The combination of sea turtle nesting habitat, shorebird colonies, and the estuarine water quality make this a significant conservation area in a state that has lost most of its natural coastline to development.
