Last checked Aug 2026
Praia de Tambaba, in Conde, Paraíba, was one of the first officially designated naturist beaches in Brazil and remains one of the country's best-known clothing-optional destinations. The beach is split by a rocky headland into a naturist cove and a separate clothed section, with nudity expected rather than merely optional within the designated naturist area.
Know before you go
Nudity is the expected norm, not just an option, within Tambaba's designated naturist cove — this isn't a casual clothing-optional beach, so plan accordingly if that's not what you're looking for. Local rules and any managing association's guidelines have shifted over time, so check current conduct rules before visiting, and note that some access points involve a walk over rocks or steps between the two beach sections.
