## Resource

Sandy Bay , long regarded as Cape Town’s unofficial nudist beach, is now under formal review by South African National Parks, which says the site has never been officially designated for naturist use. A new petition calling for recognition and regulation has quickly gained support, highlighting ongoing concerns about safety, enforcement, and the beach’s uncertain legal status. The outcome of the review may determine whether the site remains an informal space or becomes something more clearly defined. This is a public episode.
