Although you are not sure of the status of Sillery Sands in Devon, it gets a good write-up in "Bare Britain", where it is implied that it is popular among naturists. On the day on which we went, in late May, we were the only people there, but it is a spacious beach, with interesting caves in the cove next to the main one. The beach is mainly pebbly but, when the sea is not at its height, there is some sand, and this makes going in for a swim much easier.

apparently, there are NO naturist beaches in Praa Sands, Cornwall / surrounding Weston-S-Mare / Bigbury on sea .
If there are then you will most likely to be arrested for indecent exposure. I thought I would put you straight. written by Sam, June 21, 2007
Mark, Sorry to contradict you but there are locations on the North side of Sand point and below the coast path North from Ladye bay, Clevedon towards Portishaed which are often used by naturists.

I have been swimming and sunbathing nude at Sillery Sands for nearly 40 years. Inexplicably, it seems to be less and less frequented (by both textiles and naturists.) Perhaps people are put off by the amount of (healthy) exercise required to get to it.
If you enjoy social naturism, this beach is not for you! If you enjoy tranquility, clean, safe sea bathing and freedom to enjoy your own thoughts undisturbed, in a superb location give Sillery a try. written by dave, October 17, 2007  mark i would like to inform you that i have,on many occasion swam and sunbathed naked on the north side of sand point, very nice but keep your mouth shut in the muddy water written by Mark, February 07, 2008
Well thank you to those of you who had commented to me on the beaches at Sand Point and along that part of the Bristol Channel coastline, I knew those areas from the past.
However, personally I have not seen naturism on these parts.Seems very hard to find I would imagine! Last year (as I live in Devon) I went along to Bigbury on Sea; walked the whole coastline and was trying to find out where there was a naturist section as I had heard rumours from someone that there was a naturist section there. But unfortunately, nowhere to be seen, everybody on these beaches were all textile. If anyone knows of this area, please do let me know, as I have not seen any naturists in this area. It was quite a coastal walk aswell! Praa sands a bit too public for naturism, unless anyone knows differently! written by Robbie, May 06, 2008
Although this is an unofficial Naturist Beach, i have been going there for many years, people normally go to the left as enter the beach and then continue past carpark and then go on to the sand dunes, but i must admit, when i went last year a couple of times there were more and more 'Watchers' so be carefull it used to be great for all the family but i dont take my kids anymore, but apart from that its a nice place to go
written by caroline, May 25, 2008 According to the British Naturist Foundation website, I quote: " At time of writing (19.5.0  , inaccessible due to steps being damaged by storm." Can anyone out there verify this or have any updates? written by me, June 21, 2008
The steps have been damaged, there's a sign at the top of the path down saying not to go... However, once you get to the bottom, you find that someone has strapped a ladder across the chasm caused by a little landslide, and after you've negotiated that, it's just a 12 foot scramble down a couple of rocks to get to the beach...

This is the closest beach to me but I have to travel to Budleigh Salterton still for the nude beach. I can't think of anywhere you could strip off on the beach in Lyme Regis. It is far too dangerous to walk out past the right hand side over the rocks to the hidden beach around the corner due to tides and crumbling rock.

Going to cornwall in July/august. Have 2 very young childen and would love to try nudism. Feel the need to do this initially while my children are very young! Can anyone tell me the best place to you in far south west which is accessible with a pushchair?

Deserted in the undercliff direction. Walked most of it nude no problem.

Cornwall has the most beaches of any county in the UK but surprisingly no official nudist beach. I feel safer going nude on official beaches. I would dread being caught up in some police action for going nude on a non-official beach. Does anyone know of any plans for any official nudist beach? The nearest is at Budleigh Salterton.

Thurlston Sands is probably the nearest to Cornwall about 20 miles from Plymouth. You need to park in the village walk across the golf links and down a steep path to a very sociable beach. Soft sand good swimming and not overlooked.
