Legal context & local rules
Norway permits public nudity in designated areas and is socially tolerant. The Norwegian Naturist Federation (NNF) has agreements with numerous municipalities for nude beach designations. Full nudity outside designated areas may result in a police warning rather than prosecution unless sexual behaviour is involved.

Gautviken naturist area is a small shoreline recreation area in Vefsn municipality, Helgeland, in Nordland county in northern Norway. The record's map point lies north-west of Mosjøen, but its exact position is unconfirmed. The Norwegian Naturist Federation lists it among its official naturist beaches and describes it as a naturist beach and recreation area where the whole site is a textile-free zone. It calls it a lovely place in the sun. Parking is free and camping is possible, but there are no toilets or rubbish bins, so visitors must take all their waste home. Little else is published about the shoreline. At this latitude the swimming season is short and the sea is cold, but long summer days mean evening sun well into the night in June and July.
Glomstadbukta naturiststrand
Glomstadbukta is a naturist beach and camp area on the western shore of Mjøsa, Norway's largest lake, about 3 km north of Gjøvik town centre. It is one of the official beaches listed by the Norwegian Naturist Federation. The local naturist club, Mjøsområdets Naturistforening, leases and runs it, and has put a lot of work into the site over the years. There is no sand resort here. The site has a bathing area by the lake and the mouth of a river, a lawn where visitors can camp in a tent for up to three days, and a small marina for people arriving by boat. Facilities include a well-equipped barbecue area (the club calls it Norway's finest), a petanque court, and the Glomstadbu hut, which sleeps four and can be rented by members of naturist federations affiliated with the INF. Visit Norway's bathing guide for the Gjøvik region lists it as a naturist beach.
Hjertøya
Hjertøya is the westernmost island of the Molde archipelago in Moldefjorden, a protected nature and recreation area that Molde residents have used for outings since the 1930s and that also houses the open-air Fisheries Museum. Its naturist beach is on the island's south side and is listed by Norsk Naturistforbund, the national naturist federation, as an official naturist beach. The shore is somewhat stony, but there is a small sandy pool that suits children. A toilet and rubbish bin are provided, but there is no drinking water, so bring your own. Elsewhere on the island are a textile sandy beach, barbecue spots, an outhouse, a bathing raft and diving tower, boat and kayak rental, walking trails through meadow and woodland, and several floating piers where private boats tie up.
Homolulu Beach
Homolulu Beach is a nudist-friendly beach in Huk, Oslo, Norway. Nudity is optional. On-site amenities include restrooms, parking.
Hoøya
Hoøya is a small tidal island in the Beitstadfjord at Beitstad, about 10 km west of Steinkjer in Trøndelag. The whole island is a public outdoor recreation area (friluftsområde), bought by the state in 1971 and run by Steinkjer kommune, with forest trails, grill spots, a kiosk, floating piers, a diving tower and prehistoric burial mounds. The signposted naturist beach lies on the north side of the island path, about 150 m out from the shore, and is described as the municipality's only official naturist beach. It is not a sand beach: bathers lie on smooth rock shelves (svaberg) and swim off the rocks, which is why Norsk Naturistforbund calls it not especially good for small children. There are also rock shelves on the south side where some people bathe nude informally, but that area is not signed. The island is reached on foot over a causeway that floods at high tide, and many foreign tourists visit in summer. Tents may be pitched on the grass meadow near the beach.
Huk Naturist Beach
Huk sits at the southern tip of the Bygdøy peninsula, a short bus ride west of central Oslo, and is one of the city's busiest summer bathing spots. The park is split in two: the main family beach at Hukodden with lawns, sand, bathing piers and a café, and a separate naturist beach on the point to the north-west, in what was once the garden of the Jordan brush-making family. A narrow bay divides the two, and an information sign marks the entrance to the nude area. The naturist side is a mix of a small sandy strip, smooth rock outcrops sloping into the Oslofjord and large grassy areas behind, so most people spread out on the rocks or the lawn. The fjord water stays cool even in midsummer. Norsk Naturistforbund lists Huk as an official naturist beach and calls it child-friendly, and the local naturist club says nude bathers have been increasing here. On a fine weekend both halves of the park are crowded. A floating platform just offshore is popular for sunbathing and swimming.
