Platja de Santa Susanna

Platja de Santa Susanna sits on the Maresme coast in Catalonia and is listed for naturist use alongside general beach use. The beach surface is sand, with a sandy seabed and Mediterranean conditions that are generally calm to moderate, although clarity and waves vary with wind. Mediterranean weather brings warm dry summers and mild shoulder seasons, with the sea generally warmest in late summer. June to September is the practical window for swimming and sunbathing, while mornings and late afternoons offer milder sun and generally lighter use than summer midday. Access is public and open on foot, with no gate, reservation, closing time or admission fee for the shoreline. Visitors usually arrive from the promenade or beach paths and settle on the natural section for swimming, sunbathing and short walks. Typical stays are around a half day, with shorter visits common for walking. Facilities on the natural section are limited. Toilets and showers may be available along the developed promenade but are limited or absent on the natural stretch, so plan accordingly. There is no food service directly on the natural section, with options in town and along the promenade within walking distance. Little natural shade is available on the sand, and sun exposure is high, so bring an umbrella or sun shelter, water and supplies. Lifeguard coverage varies by season and section and is not guaranteed on the natural stretch, so check local posts and follow standard beach safety. Dogs are often restricted on main beaches in season, so check local signage for current rules. Parking is in town within walking distance and can be tight in summer. Public buses and regional trains serve Santa Susanna, followed by a walk to the beach. Families use the wider beach, but should be comfortable with nude bathing nearby in the naturist area.
