Little Beach on Maui is not technically a nudist beach - because those are illegal - but, well, it is.
It's quite a spectacle.

I’m not sure what beach I went to in Cape Cod. Was only there for one day while out in Boston. If it was Coast Guard Beach then that’s the only one on the list I’ve been to.
My favorite beach that I’ve been to is Cannon Beach on the Oregon Coast, but I don’t think it’s the type of beach that would be on this list. For much of the year I assume it’s not much about swimming and beach activities, but it is beautiful.

I have been to 1, 2, 6, 8-10. Not sure if Coronado would have made my Top 10.

Coast Guard beach is awesome but it's pretty far from Boston - past the elbow - if you hit it for one day (depending on the time of year) that was some solid car time. Well worth the trip - in the 20yrs i've lived in KC i've been to that beach more than i've been to Phog Allen Field House but i'm a Cape enthusiast.
Beachwalker on Kiawah is also really cool, but i don't think it's the best beach on Kiawah. if you go to the end of the island, past the Ocean Course (yes, that one), the beach is amazing.

ZFB always has Sun Ray Hills in Burlington as #1.

I was lucky enough to be in the Charleston area for a week in the mid'90s right when the Ocean Course changed ownership groups. I got to play the Ocean course, host of the Ryder Cup, along with the Gary Player course (Cougar Point?) and Nicklaus course (name also escaping me) for $75 bucks a night, including lodging a wedge shot from the Ocean course. Surreal track. Yes, the beach you speak of is unreal. There was also a cool boat launch village on Kiawah, something like "Bohicket Creek."

Don't sleep on Siesta Key Beach in the Sarasota area. Not topless, per se, but latenight when the bars close, sand shenanigans known to interfere with nesting sea turtle habitat.
During the day, you will see Amish people (large colony in the area) uncomfortably fully clothed on the same beach. Maybe the same ones rumspringa-ing at night.
-
Last time I checked Puerto Rico is still part of the US, so any list without a beach from Vieques, or Culebra is flawed from the jump.

Here are his rating criteria. States only and not territories, I read in one article, which is odd.

Agree. Beachwalker, though, is the only public beach on the island. He rated only public coastal beaches, in which there are 650 in the States according to his website.

The first rule of topless/nude beaches:
The overwhelming majority of people who take advantage of it are the ones you don't want to see naked.

Yup. They also are often at the stage of life where they don't give a damn and what they flaunt, to your point, is best unseen.

Lucky enough to live near enough for an easy day trip to cannon beach. You are right there's not a whole lot of swimming due to the water temperature but it that whole area of the coast is just spectacular. Lotta fresh crab too!

Sadly, I can't recall ever going to any of these beaches. I think I probably went to Coronado as a kid, but I don't recall it.
Without question, the top beaches I ever went to were in Guam. Sharks Cove is the beach by which all others will be measured for me. My favorite beach ever, and nothing has ever come close. The beaches on Tumon Bay were also incredible.

Sister Chick, you hit that one square on the head of the nail. If you have to advertise, you have inferior merchandise.
My favorite beach is Wabasso Beach in Indian River County, FL. Nice, warm and great Atlantic surf.

Mazomanie Beach, Mazomanie, WI. Closed down by the DNR.
Beejay would bring some of his boyz down from MPLS for the afternoon, to just hang out.

OK, now I've got to tell my story about my first trip to Maui's Little Beach.
My wife and I went to Maui and we ended up at Big Beach. Somebody there said that, on the other side of the rock jetty, was Little Beach - and it was "clothing optional." So we had to go check that out, of course.
We get there and the first thing we see is this beautiful family: The dad looks like effen Thor - totally built, with long blond hair. The mom looks like the freakin' Khaleesi, honest. I mean, you couldn't have found a more beautiful couple at a Playboy shoot. And to top it off (pun intended), they had two perfect, blond, naked kids, a boy and a girl, maybe around 4 and 6. I shyte you not about any of this. I've never seen anything like it.
I have told this story many times, and my wife will slap me upside the head if I embellish any story, and she agrees I'm telling the total truth about this family.
After that sunk in for a minute, though, we took a look around. Yikes! Without going into great detail, let me say that the BMIs on just about everybody else we saw were ... well ... infinity. Lots of blubber.
Except for the gay guys. There were a half-dozen of them playing frisbee - yes, frisbee - running and jumping into the waves. They had a couple of dogs, too, and I made some wiseass comment about hoping the dogs didn't mistake certain body parts for Snausages.
This was 15 years ago, and obviously it was memorable. Still can't get over that family. Wonder what they're doing these days.

May not quite qualify as a beach, but the sheet I saw at the 7 sacred pools of Hana on my honeymoon was......interesting
Does the Apple River qualify as a nude beach?

I nominate Schroeder Beach

Beaches on the Michigan side of Lake Michigan are, as a rule, better than those on the Wisconsin side. The water is usually warmer on this side due to prevailing winds.

If any of you ever get the opportunity to spend any time in Martha’s Vineyard you’ll find that the beaches (and restaurants) are extraordinary. It’s a bit difficult to get a car over on the ferry during the summer season but the month or so after Labor Day is breathtaking. The island is quiet, tranquil and a wonderful place to decompress.

Passage Key, off the northern tip of Anna Maria in the mouth of Tampa Bay is the best nude beach I've encountered in Florida. Also a tremendous beach on both the gulf side and the bay side. Great shallows for wading and anchoring- bird sanctuary key so, technically not walkable, but covered with people sans swimsuits. Boat anchored next to us and the passengers promptly stripped, swam, dove from the stern and sunbathed all afternoon. They never went near the key.
Siesta Key and Pass A Grille beaches have to be US public top 10.

There is absolutely no place in Florida sans South Beach in Miami, where I would want to be at a nude beach.
That said, when my daughter was about 4, she and I spent the day at South Beach. We went to the beach, put out our blanket and she began to, well, be a kid and bounce around. A woman, who I might add was very attractive, sat down next to us and proceeded to remove the top of her bathing suit.
Dad, admittedly was pleased. That is, until my four-year-old toddler asked if she too could remove the top of her bathing suit. To add insult to injury, Mommy found out about it when we came home that evening and was none too amused.

I guarantee you LN looks like a prayer service compared to the Apple.
When are you going to be a Soft Pines again?
Btw, fishing was outstanding last night. 4 walleyes in 45 minutes. This morning, 36 inch northern. Walleyes and nord were with minnows and bobber and 4lb test. Nord took about 10 min. Thought for sure he’d break off
