Beach Box Sauna — clothing-optional evenings
Brighton, East Sussex, England
Advance booking through the official German-style clothing-optional event calendar. Standard communal sessions have a different dress rule.
Monthly German-style clothing-optional evenings combine wood-fired beach saunas with guided Aufguss at Brighton’s Beach Box. Hosted by sauna master Mika, the session moves between three shared saunas, with cooling baths and fresh-air breaks beside the sea.
Nudity policy
Clothing optional during the named event
At the German-style event, participants choose whether to wear swimwear, so nudity is welcome without being required. Follow the host’s guidance for the saunas, changing and cooling areas. This is a social, non-sexual sauna session.
Regular communal sessions have different clothing rules and require covering below the waist. Book the specifically advertised clothing-optional event.

Changing rooms, small valuables lockers, outdoor seating and cooling baths are available. Bring two towels, including a full sitting towel, plus drinking water and beach footwear.

Directions & Parking
Getting there
Find Beach Box on the pebbles at Banjo Groyne, 285 Madeira Drive, at the bottom of Dukes Mound and behind the Volks Railway workshop. From the Palace Pier, follow the seafront east past Yellowave and Jungle Rumble; pedestrian staircases also descend from Marine Parade.
Parking
Use the nearby pay-by-phone bays on Madeira Drive or Marine Parade, observing current charges and restrictions. The operator also suggests Brighton Marina’s multi-storey, about 15 minutes away on foot along the seafront. Check its current parking conditions before leaving your car; there is no dedicated on-site car park.
Finding the naturist area
Go to Beach Box reception for your booked clothing-optional event, then use the changing area and follow Mika’s instructions for moving between the three participating saunas and cooling spaces. The main entrance is reached from the beachside promenade; dress normally on the public approach.
