What makes Maslin Beach special
Maslin Beach is a long beach below high cliffs on the Fleurieu coast. The southern half is designated for nude bathing, and gay beachgoers meet here too. The Pilwarren Maslin Beach Nude Games take place every year. There are hardly any facilities on the beach itself, and getting there without a car is a hassle.
A good fit if you …
- want to spend a day at a nudist beach
- are exploring the coast south of Adelaide by car
Not ideal if you …
- are travelling without a car
- expect a beach bar with service
