Naturist beaches in Spain: two with an official page we could read
What the authorities say
Spain has hundreds of beaches used by naturists and no national designation register we could read: the national tourism portal blocks automated access, so it is not cited here. The two entries below are confirmed on official city or island tourism pages: Barcelona's Mar Bella has a designated nudist area by the city council's own description, and Ibiza's tourism portal calls Es Cavallet one of the first nudist beaches in Spain.
Ajuntament de Barcelona, Mar Bella beach · Ibiza tourism portal (ibiza.travel), Playa des Cavallet
Two entries is a deliberately short list for a country with a long naturist tradition; it will grow only as official pages are read and dated.

What is not on this page
Beaches that appear on commercial lists for Spain but have no official page stating a clothing rule. Adding one would mean inventing a status, and a wrong "legal" here is a harm, not a typo. If you know an official page for a beach that belongs here, the editorial policy says how to send it.
