Description: Kinshaldy Beach is a long beach that extends over 4 miles, and most of it is backed by the Tentsmuir Forest. There is just one parking area with toilets, located in the central area of the beach, and the beach is little used away from this access point. Although nudity has been reported on both ends of the beach, nude bathing occurs mostly on the south end, toward the mouth of the River Eden. (The forested area north of the parking area is crisscrossed by walking trails, making the north end of the beach closer to areas visited by textile strollers.)
From the parking area, as you walk toward the beach, you'll soon see a small footbridge to your right that crosses a small stream that runs across the beach. Cross this bridge. At this point, you'll be at the border of the forest and the dunes, facing south. You can either go through the dunes or go to the open beach. Continue south about 20 to 30 minutes. A barrel-size blue and yellow cylinder is a landmark for finding the start of the unofficial nude area. Nudity occurs both on the open beach and in the dunes. Attendance is light, and core users are mainly gay men
