Bay Bares Family Nudist Park

Private naturist club (non-profit, a member-run cooperative) founded in 1991 on 40 acres in Bay County, about 25 miles north of Panama City (Florida). It welcomes visitors all year round, 7 days a week, 9 am to 5 pm (from Monday to Thursday it is best to phone first). You do not need to be a member: you pay a day entry fee that covers either one person or a couple, and the club presents itself as made up of couples and singles. Saltwater pool (no swimsuits in the water), over a mile of nature trails to walk "au naturel", and pitches for tents, caravans and RVs (electric hookups, a new covered 50A RV site; non-members must arrange overnight stays in advance). Pets allowed in the campground (not in common areas). Membership after 3 visits within 90 days ($400/year), with a discount for AANR members and veterans. Parties in the summer months (Summer Splash, Independence Day with fireworks). Strict rules on photography and behaviour: the rules point out that nudity and sex are not the same thing. In 2025–2026 guests consistently spoke very highly of it, for the manager's welcome and the peacefulness of the place.
