This is not really a place for excessive amorous activity - although you probably could engage in such. In fact, cell phone coverage is spotty, so you're almost forced to disconnect from the outside world. You really feel as though you've gotten away from it all. The setting is idyllic, with the high cliffs and endless seascape. We're under 30, and it might have been nice to see more people in our demographic, but perhaps they couldn't get time off on short notice. My husband siad that they just wanted to get a close, prolonged look at me, but they seemed harmless enough. Some men seemed to walk past us multiple times, sometimes starting a conversation with us. There were fewer than 30 people on about a mile of beach: about a dozen single men and a few mixed couples. Park rangers drove by a couple of times on ATVs but they were just going to check on the bird nests in the limited areas that are fenced off. The nude section is solely under the control of the CCNS, and officials ignore nudity in this section. The beach area near the parking lot is run by the town even though it's part of the Cape Cod National Seashore.

Walking south (to the right) for about 10 minutes gets you to the nude section. It's at the end of Longnook Road which comes off Route 6. Longnook Beach is open to non-residents of Truro until the third Saturday in June and then again after Labor Day. This is the best beach for nude sunbathing on Cape Cod. We love being nude at the beach, as it is the most sensible, relaxing, and natural way to be. With the sudden appearance of summertime weather, my husband and I couldn't resist the temptation to take time off from work to spend a few days on the Cape.
