Sunnier Palms Nudist Park

Cooperative, non-profit naturist park inland from Fort Pierce, on Florida's Treasure Coast, a couple of kilometres from the I-95 and Florida Turnpike interchanges. It was born in 1992 from the relocation of an older club and covers 30 acres among citrus groves and pine woods: 53 sites, 35 of them occupied by residents' homes and 18 reserved for guests, who must bring their own equipment (tent, caravan or motorhome; there are no rental units or rooms). The heart of communal life is the pool area, with a heated pool, an eight-person hot tub, shaded gazebos, shuffleboard and a pétanque court; a trail of about 800 metres loops through the woods along a small pond, and part of the land is kept as a shared vegetable garden and orchard. The park presents itself as a “clothing free” community. Management by volunteer members defines the character of the place: recent visitors appreciate the cleanliness, the peace and the welcome from residents, with the coffee group meeting twice a day, but there are also visitors who found the rules very strict and unevenly enforced, and the crowd is mostly older. You don't need a membership card to visit: you can come for the day (day visitors are not admitted in July and August) or camp, all year round. In October 2024 a tornado hit the park; the restoration, carried out by members, appears to have been completed according to guests' accounts from 2025. Nearby is the Blind Creek naturist beach, cited by several guests as an extra reason to stay.
