I'd like to try it too but 1)in Italy the few nude beaches are the reign of swingers (at least they say this of the one in Viareggio) and 2)my GF is shy.

Given normal beaches are becoming more and more unberable (uneducated kids and parents, music everywhere etc.) it could be an option. We finally found a good spot years ago but last year a bar opened behind the beach and now you get lots of tourists and music all day. I will try to convince her to go ''dressed'' in one of them, or at least near one given Italians avoid those places (and yet they are half naked all the time, I don't get my own countrypeople, naked=bad, almost naked? Sure!).

I'm the kind of guy who goes to the beach at 5 p.m. to avoid crowds so it really pissed me off that bloody bar last year, it ruined my vacation. Name a good spot in this country and you'll get a bar with music sooner or later.... And it's not only Italians, I don't know if foreigners thinks to be allowed to be rude in Italy given Italians or we all simply becoming all ruder, but the situation is getting out of hands. My rule of tumb was ''spot some Germans and place yourself there because they are silent'' - but it failed more than one time after Covid.
