About Łeba Naturystyczna
Łeba's naturist beach lies on the open Baltic shore west of the town, on the long sand strip that runs toward Rąbka and the shifting dunes of Słowiński National Park. Polish guides place the nude section a short way from the main town beach, between beach entrances (zejścia) 29 and 30, which puts it within walking distance of the Turystyczna street area rather than out in the national park. The beach is wide, pale fine sand backed by a forested dune ridge, with the shallow, cool Baltic in front; there is no natural shade. The current nude area dates from 2017, when the town authorities set it aside after a growing number of requests; press reports say the initiative was supported by the Polish Naturist Federation, and that an earlier naturist beach had existed at Łeba before. It draws both Polish and foreign holidaymakers in July and August and is quieter than the main resort beach. A coastal path continues west along the shore toward the Łącka dune, so walkers and cyclists pass through.
Getting there
Łeba is reached by road (DW214) or by train from Lębork; the town is small and walkable. Head for the western beach area off ul. Turystyczna and use the numbered beach entrances; the nude section is reported between entrances 29 and 30. Paid seasonal car parks are spread through the resort, but exact prices for the western entrances were not found. Access is over the dune via sandy boardwalks and paths, a walk of a few minutes from the entrance, which is not easy with a wheelchair or pram.
What visitors say
Polish write-ups describe the Łeba nude beach as calm and spacious, with a loyal following that has grown since 2017 and a mix of Polish and foreign visitors in high summer. Some visitors note that you may need to walk or cycle a fair distance along the shore to find a quieter stretch, and that walkers heading for the national park dunes pass through. Guides advise bringing your own water, shade and sunscreen, as the section has no services of its own.

Legal context
Polish law has no general ban on nude bathing; problems arise only under the petty-offences code for 'indecent' behaviour in public. Press reports say the Łeba section was set aside by the town in 2017 with backing from the Polish Naturist Federation, but no municipal resolution or signage text was found to confirm it.
Naturism at Łeba Naturystyczna sits under Poland's rules for de facto tolerance — usually left alone if you keep it non-sexual and low-drama.
