Overview
Little Palm Beach also known as “Nudie Beach”. This beach is given that name for a certain reason, you guessed it, it is the only beach on Waiheke where you can let everything hang out and swim and sunbathe NAKED.
Many local Waiheke nudists enjoy going to Little Palm Beach to do just that. It is a private little beach that is situated on the western side of Main Palm Beach, separated just across the rocks.
If you don’t want your children or yourself to see ladies or gentleman in their natural beauty avoid that area, or if you want to feel free without prying eyes everyone is welcome.
