Australia’s oldest nude beach, Lady Jane Beach is a premier Sydney LGBTQ+ hotspot for sun, views, and clothing-optional queer freedom.
Strip down and soak in the sun at Lady Jane Beach, Sydney’s iconic coastal gem for the LGBTQ+ community. Also known as Lady Bay Beach, this stunning stretch of sand holds the title of Australia’s oldest officially designated nude beach, serving as a sanctuary for gay men and queer sun-seekers since 1976. Located on the scenic South Head peninsula, Lady Jane is a must-feature on any Sydney gay map, offering a welcoming, clothing-optional environment where freedom and body positivity take center stage. The beach provides breathtaking panoramic views of the Sydney Harbour skyline, making it the perfect spot for a scenic swim or a golden sunset lounge. While the main sandy area is popular for those looking to work on an all-over tan, more adventurous visitors often explore the rocky inlets nearby, known for a bit of discreet cruising and more secluded vibes. Just a short, picturesque ferry ride from Circular Quay to Watsons Bay followed by a brief walk through the National Park, Lady Jane Beach combines natural beauty with a rich queer history. Whether you’re an exhibitionist at heart or just looking to escape the city’s hustle in your birthday suit, this quintessential queer-friendly haven offers an authentic Sydney experience you won’t want to miss.
