Haulover Beach is one of the most famous gay-popular beaches in the United States, a spectacular stretch of sand about 11 miles north of South Beach and the only officially designated clothing-optional beach in Florida. The gay crowd gathers at the far northern end of the nude section, between towers 15 and 16, easy to spot by the rainbow flags and friendly faces. Wide, clean, and well-maintained, it offers real amenities: chair and umbrella rentals, food and drink concessions, showers, and public restrooms, beautifully sandwiched between the Atlantic Ocean and the Intracoastal Waterway. Weekdays tend to draw a more relaxed, predominantly gay male crowd, while weekends bring a bigger, more general mix, so plan accordingly. Sexual behavior is against the rules despite the nudity being tolerated, and it's not a party beach, just a genuinely welcoming, sun-soaked spot to relax au naturel.
