What is Cap D'Agde like?

Does anyone know what the trend is now on the beach at Cap de Agde?
And what happens on the beach.

What do you mean by "respected"? That if somebody is naked here, it is not acceptable for other people? Or that most people do not practice nudity, but if somebody does, it is tolerated?

I spent a couple of hours at Cap D’Agde around 1980 with my then girlfriend.

My main recollection of it was that the nude beach was very busy. We weren’t impressed. As far as I can remember, we had a swim and drove on to one of our usual holiday campsites near St Tropez. Plenty of nicer less crowded beaches where we could get naked in that area.

"Respecting nudity" is a term that means being naked in a naturist environment.

Naturists will say that nudity is not respected if someone wears some sort of clothing on a nudist beach or resort.

Some campsites or resorts are flexible but say nudity must be respected around the pool and spa area.

Nudity not being respected is sometimes associated with "gawkers" or people who want to be in the environment but not participate.

I visited a few weeks ago (Sept 2025)

Here is my report

I have just spent a couple of days at Europe's largest naturist communities, the naturist village at Cap D'Agde in France.

It is an enormous complex with thousands of apartments, hotels and a camp site. There are shops, bars and restaurants along with night clubs. It is located on the Mediterranean sea with a beautiful sandy beach.

There are two characters to the village. The first is standard naturist with all community activities like shopping, going to bars and restaurants, walking around and general leisure done in the nude. You soon get used to seeing naked bodies of all ages, sizes and colours engaging in these mundane activities.

The second side is what the French refer to as "Libertine" activities. Essentially this is all about sex, swinging and exhibitionism.

During the day the Libertine side of things can mainly be found by walking past the normal nude beach to the area known as the Baie des Cochons or Bay of Pigs. Here pretty much anything goes. You will have heard the rumours and seen the videos and everything is true!

Most of the time couples are just lying out sunbathing but when the mood takes them they will engage in all sorts of sexual activity: fingering, jerking, sucking, licking and full on fucking in every imaginable position.

All this is either ignored with a degree of nonchalance by the fellow beach users or actively observed by a good cohort of, mostly middle aged, single males. As my wife was unable to visit with me I was definitely in the latter group.

From time to time there would be displays by younger, fitter couples which attracted large crowds and occasionally a young lady would engage in blow-job sessions for all who could get close.

I avoided these scenes as they aren't really my thing. What I enjoyed was seeing the ordinary, middle-aged and senior couples take advantage of the scene. These were the sort of couples you would normally take no notice of, care-worn, wrinkly, all shapes and sizes who had perhaps been married for 20-30 years but had not let the fire go out!

I saw many, many things which will stay in my memory for a very long time. I have written on this site about witnessing activities in the dunes at my local nudist beach in England but this was in a different universe!

In the evening nearly everybody is clothed but around a quarter of the women are wearing very erotic dresses. See through, short, minimal with all sorts of lingerie on show. I was sat in a restaurant and the lady a couple of tables away had a very short skirt with no knickers underneath and I spent the whole meal looking at her pussy.

Again ladies of all ages, shapes and sizes took part. There was an older couple sat next to me in an outside bar, she was on a mobility scooter and was a very large lady. her top was red mesh exposing her "spaniel ear" boobs and wrinkly belly. Fair play to her, I thought.

There were night clubs and saunas that catered just for swinger couples, excluding single male visitors or charging five-times the couples price for restricted access.

In summary, everything you have ever heard about the place is true. I can't wait to go back. Feel free to ask any questions.
