Sunnyside North is a scenic, clothing-optional beach located near Mount Eliza, Victoria, Australia. It's situated on the eastern side of Port Philip Bay, approximately 12 kilometers from Frankston. The beach is legal for nudism under the Nudity (Prescribed Areas) Act 1983 and offers a unique experience for those interested in naturism. Sunnyside North stretches about 200 meters and is known for its soft sand and crystal-clear water. Despite its popularity, it lacks extensive facilities and lifeguard services, making it a secluded destination for those seeking a more private beach experience.
The beach's shoreline is partially rocky, especially at the north end, which requires visitors to navigate through scrub or along the beach to access the nudist section. Sunnyside North is not patrolled by lifesavers, so visitors must exercise caution when swimming. Nearby amenities include toilets and showers, along with electric barbecues near the car park.
The beach offers a tranquil atmosphere, making it appealing for those seeking a relaxed, naturalistic environment away from more crowded tourist spots.
