I've been to the dunes in Maspalomas on about 5 holidays, and my last visit was the only time I've ever seen a family wandering about. The couple had 2 little boys with them, and thankfully realised what was happening before the boys saw anything (the German lady's moans could have been the clue). They turned round and headed back to the beach. I don't think too many people innocently walk into the middle of the dunes.

You're quite right, but equally there's the fact that few people venture into the dunes without some prior knowledge of what to expect. With a certain amount of discretion, there's still ample scope for sex in the dunes, without police interference.
Of course, the swinger clubs in town offer a safer environment, but there's a certain frisson about al fresco sex....
Yes, I just got back too, and it's right that there's a lot of police presence in the dunes! Doesn't stop the fun, but it's something to be aware of. I'd always been told that the patrols in the dunes were to protect visitors from crime, but I'm not so sure now. The policeman on the quadbike seemed to be perving rather than protecting!
Yes, I'm getting the same error message. Bewildering!
Just look at the clubs' websites.
The nudist sunbed area is by Kiosk 4 on the beach. The kiosks are little huts which sell drinks and snacks. They’re square and white. It’s easiest to access the beach from the western end, by the lighthouse (called “Faro”). You have to walk maybe half a mile eastwards along the beach to get to Kiosk 4. You’ll know you’re there because everyone is nude on the sunbeds. If you go too far, you get to the gay section, full of nice men with little rainbow flags stuck in the sand!
You can start off at PDI, but it's a long walk, and I believe that there is (confusingly) another Kiosk 4 before you get to the nudist sunbed area.
Nightlife is mainly in Playa del Ingles, the main resort, and there are some great clubs and bars. The best-known bar for swinger meets is the ComeBack bar in the Cita Center ( ). From there, you can go off to clubs. In the Cita Center basement there's the Fun 4 All bar ( ) which has a good reputation. Nearby, there’s the 2x2 club ( – note the slightly different web address). Or the other well-known swinger club is Tu Y Yo ( ) which is a taxi ride away in a very rundown commercial centre, don't try to walk there.
Have a great time!
ComeBack is a good place to have a drink and hook up with others.
3 months??? I'm jealous! :cry:
Yes, I've stayed there. I'll message you.
Difficult choice of walking further or taking a direct route but then having to trudge up & down the bigger dunes.
Costa del Sol isn't great for nude beaches (with notable exception of Benalnatura). But Gran Canaria has good nude beach, nude resorts, miles of dunes, loads of swinger clubs, etc.
I thought Diamonds had closed.
There's a good nude beach at Vera Playa, but it's not really a swinging location - too busy with families generally.
Definitely Maspalomas. Good, big nude beach backed by action-filled dunes. Nearby Playa del Ingles has everything you could wish for at night (and lots you wouldn't wish for!) There's also a decent little naturist resort in Maspalomas called Magnolias Natura. They have a good bar/bistro and offer regular free courtesy buses to the beach and town.
Jackie, how about emailing Angel & Rich and asking them for the names of the songs they mainly play?
There's a lot of the swinger action in the dunes on Maspalomas beach. The place to start off is the nude sunbed area by Kiosk 4 on the beach. Confusingly, I think there are two kiosks with number 4. The nude sunbed area is at Kiosk 4 counting from the Maspalomas end of the beach. If you're walking from the PdI end, you need to go past the gay area and the next kiosk is 4. I'm sure you'll have a great time.
Be sure to visit Benalnatura naturist beach! It's one of the nicest little nude beaches I've ever visited.
Peng Travel have a good selection of places at Cap d'Agde, and a choice of air travel or road travel.
I can understand that a mistake in printed literature could cause confusion, but the complex is still on the Thomson website, and it's possible to book it online. Thomson say it's for gay male couples only. If this isn't true, surely Thomson would have taken it off their website by now?
The "La Mirage" website seems to be down now - looks rather dodgy!
We're going in April - can't wait!
Yes, it is partially out of date. However, if you look at the FAQ section ( ) you'll see that they've updated the info re campsites there.
Vera Playa is a great naturist beach, but it isn't the place to go if you're looking for the sort of action you might have seen at Cap d'Agde. There's now no campsite at Vera Playa - the nearest naturist campsite is at Puerto Lumbreras. The definitive source of info on Vera Playa
Gran Canaria is the place - message me for info.
Speaking as a "sensible single", that's a great idea. But the 18th is a Sunday, or did you mean Sat 17th?
Enjoy your sleep - you won't get much when you're there!!
