Sunnier Palms - Fort Pierce, Florida, USA

Sunnier Palms is currently the only nudist resort or club in the greater Port Saint Lucie area, which is surprising, given its proximity to Blind Creek Beach. Furthermore, Sunnier is really designed as a member co-op that lends itself to PSL locals and folks who choose to make Sunnier their home, at least for part of the year, but it is possible to reserve a campsite (with your own equipment: tent, trailer, or RV) or visit for the day as a non-member. They offer a free first time visitor pass for true nudist newbies, but also have reasonable daily/weekly/monthly rates with discounts for folks with affiliate memberships in AANR/TNSF/FCN.

The amenities are typical of your standard naturist campground; including, but not limited to: clubhouse with kitchen and gas grill, pool, hot tub, showers, wifi (!), laundry, fire pits, and nature trails for hiking. They are pet friendly (mostly), but restrict some breeds of dogs, which we find unfortunate as a blanket policy instead of simply requiring animals to be leashed and well-behaved. That all said, we had a great experience there and the residents and volunteers couldn't have been more wonderful and gracious with their time and welcoming attitudes. If you happen to be in the area, perhaps visiting Blind Creek, it's worthwhile to give them a call and stop by if you can.

Editor’s Note: This was our first trip to a nudist resort and we wanted to be as respectful as possible regarding the use of our cameras (we didn’t ask for permission from the resort as we now typically do), thus we did not take any photos during our visit.
