• Stay in the designated areas: Don't wander into the family section of a public beach expecting to go nude. Stick to the northern ends of remote beaches or recognized nude zones.
• Bring a towel: This is universal naturist etiquette. You sit on a towel, you don't drip sweat on the bar stool.
• Watch the rocks: The Black Sea has sea urchins in some rocky areas. Water shoes are a good idea—even if they look silly with your birthday suit.
• Consent is key: Photography is strictly forbidden on nudist beaches. Don't stare. Think of it like a museum: appreciate the art, but don't get too close.
