Nudity Policy
NOT REQUIREDNudity is not required
The Good
- Secluded Sections: While part of a public park area, there are quieter spots further along the shoreline that offer more privacy.
- Lake Champlain Views: Beautiful open views across the lake, especially during sunset.
- Local Favorite: Known among locals as a relaxed, low-key place to hang out by the water.
- Natural Feel: Less developed than typical beaches, giving it a more raw and laid-back atmosphere.
- Access via Trails: Walking paths and bike paths make it easy to reach more hidden areas.
- Spacious Shoreline: Enough room to spread out, especially if you walk away from the main access points.
The Bad
- Not Officially Naturist: Nudity is not formally permitted, so discretion is important.
- Mixed Crowd: You may encounter walkers, cyclists, or dog owners from the nearby park and trail system.
- No Facilities at Beach: No toilets or food options directly at the shoreline.
- Can Be Busy Near Access Points: Areas close to the park or paths tend to have more foot traffic.
- Limited Privacy at Times: Depending on the time of day, it can be harder to find a fully secluded spot.
The Naked Truth
Starr Farm Beach sits on Lake Champlain in Burlington and is part of a larger public park rather than a designated naturist area.
The sections closest to the main access points are generally used by families, dog walkers and other park visitors, so this isn’t somewhere to assume nudity is appropriate everywhere.
If you continue further along the shoreline, there are quieter and more secluded stretches that have developed a local reputation for occasional nude use. It remains unofficial, though, so it’s important to read the situation and be respectful of other visitors.
The shoreline is natural and undeveloped, with good views across Lake Champlain and enough separation in the quieter sections to find some privacy.
Starr Farm is an unofficial but locally known option for people looking for a nude beach in the US, particularly if you prefer somewhere low-key rather than an established naturist beach.
Insider Tip
Walk further down the shoreline away from the main park entrance to find quieter and more private areas.
Who's Here

Beach Surface
The shoreline is a mix of sand, small stones, and natural lake edges, with some grassy areas nearby.
