Playa La Escondida is Argentina’s first officially recognized nude beach, located about 45 minutes from Mar del Plata along the coastal Route 11. True to its name, it’s tucked away behind dunes and cliffs, accessible via a wooden boardwalk that creates a sense of retreat from the world. Its secluded location and natural surroundings make it an ideal destination for those seeking both tranquillity and a more liberated beach experience.

The beach is intentionally designed to be inclusive and respectful. Nudity is optional, and visitors—regardless of choice—are treated equally, with a strong cultural emphasis on privacy, respect, and freedom. Even basic comforts like shaded gazebos, loungers, showers, and a heated pool are available, making it a well-appointed choice for either solitude or social relaxation. Photography, loud music, pets, and vendors are prohibited to maintain a peaceful atmosphere.

Beyond its amenities, La Escondida stands out for its philosophy: calm, non-judgmental, and respectful. With lifeguard supervision and controlled access, it’s both safe and peaceful. Celebrated as one of Argentina’s best beaches, it continues to attract a diverse crowd seeking a relaxed and liberating coastal experience.
