NatCorn is a site dedicated to providing information about naturism and naturist facilities in Cornwall and is now in its 21st year.
The International Naturist Federation (INF) defines naturism as: “Naturism is a natural, normal and very healthy lifestyle. Here’s, for the record, the official definition of naturism: “Naturism is a way of life in harmony with nature characterised by the practice of communal nudity intending to encourage self-respect, respect for others and for the environment.”
NatCorn is maintained on a voluntary basis as a service to fellow naturists and will be kept as up to date as possible. To this end, we welcome your comments on any of the clubs, sites or beaches featured. We would also like to hear about any others that you would like to see featured in future.
NatCorn was featured in a review in Paul Rouse’s “Tangled Web” column in H&E Naturist Magazine (November 2018 issue) receiving an extremely good review and an 8/10 score of which we are enormously proud. We are most grateful and shall continue to strive to improve.
Volunteer-run site dedicated to promoting naturism and naturist facilities in Cornwall and making an excellent job of it.

Hello Richard
There is certainly no age limit to being a naturist. You can be a naturist at home but it is usually more enjoyable with others at say a naturist club.
If you are not in Cornwall take a look at the Links page on this website or the BN website at https://www.bn.org.uk/clubs/ and see what is available in your area.
Let us know how you get on. Enjoy yourself.
I’ve got the book myself and it’s such a great read.!!!

Hi we are travelling to Exeter and wondered if you could tell us of local naturist beaches please
Hi Ian
The nearest naturist beaches to Exeter are at Budleigh Salterton, Petitor Beach and Weston mouth depending on where in Exeter you are.
I hope this helps. While you are there, why not drop over the border into Cornwall, lovely beaches here too.
Please keep up the good work!
Just a line to thank you for forwarding my request for four brochures just over a week ago, and they all arrived within a week.
A splendid service which will assist me and my wife in planning a future holiday to Cornwall.
A first class website that I will recommend to my friends. Have a good summer.
Do you have a sister site for Devon, showing nudist beaches in Devon – particularly from Bideford to Bude? Can’t find anything to compare with the excellent info on your site.
What is the nearest beach to wadebridge please?
Graham,
I would suggest that you look at Perranporth https://www.natcorn.org.uk/beaches/beaches-north-coast/penhale-sands-holywell-bay-near-perranporth/
Do let us know where you decide to try and how you get on.
I have gone to an area in Marazion far end up by cemetery and walk down to beach bit rocky but been there nude, also heard about praa sands far end but not heard much.
I spent an afternoon last year sunbathing naked at Sennen Cove in a fairly isolated spot. None of the few people who were nearby or passed took any real notice. If this is not an ‘official’ naturist beach I suggest that it is very nude tolerant.
Any other remarks re: Sennen very much appreciated please, especially as regards which part of the beach etc. Thank you.
Praa sands:- My wife and I were able to sunbathe nude here last year (2011), albeit with discretion. About half way along from the western end, the house gardens end in vertical ‘cliffs’ and we were able to angle our windbreak to screen us from passers-by lower down on the beach. We did see a lone female strip off and sunbathe nude with no screening, but otherwise no one else seemed inclined to do so. Does anyone else report on naturist use here?
