Berck sur Mer Nude Beach, France

Berck was full of surprises. There was a huge gay nudist beach where we spent a relaxing day in the dunes. And in the evening, we found the Terminus Bar which presented a drag cabaret evening of very high quality. I really liked this place. - AGW, 2001

How to reach the naturist beach: This beach is located in the northern district of Berck (hospital hélio-marins), in the direction of Merlimont. From the road Berck/Merlimont (RD940) move towards the beaches north by the Avenue du Docteur Quettier (roundabout), or by the banks of Boulogne (red light and service station close to the fields of tulips and the aerodrome). Follow the tourist signs (with a blue bottom) "Plages", then "Nature Plage (nord)" by the English Channel. Park in the car park at "Le Terminus ". Continue on foot northwards, along the beach. While going directly towards the beach to the north of the rescue station, a sign fixed on a blockhouse warns of the start of the naturist zone. 200 meters after the blockhouses, the beach is authorized with naturism. PS: This limit is theoretical: the naturist zone starts starting from the building in the dunes, and finishes 1 km further on (the 2 following km are on the commune of Merlimont, and naturism is prohibited). PPS: The sign also says no photography and it's prohibited to go in the dunes (private property). - Club Naturiste du Westhoek Dunkerque
