Parking Beside Duke's Mound Naturist Beach
Pay parking is available on Madeira Drive, the beach road serving the site (walkingclub.org.uk). This is the closest named parking option in the supplied local guidance, so it is the practical first choice for drivers who want to stay beside the seafront rather than use Brighton Marina.
Brighton Marina is also recommended as an alternative, with a large car park offering four hours free (walkingclub.org.uk). The marina route includes very tight turns, so larger vehicles may find access less comfortable (walkingclub.org.uk). The free period makes the marina a useful option for a shorter visit, while Madeira Drive keeps you directly on the beachfront.
Brighton Marina and Other Nearby Parking Choices
The marina is the main named alternative to Madeira Drive in the local naturist-beach guidance, and its large car park includes four hours free (walkingclub.org.uk). Parking information for the beach also gives Brighton Marina as free for four hours (nudebeachmap.com). Drivers using this option should allow for the tight turns reported at the car park (walkingclub.org.uk).
Madeira Drive remains the other named nearby choice, with pay parking along the beach road (walkingclub.org.uk). A separate local guide describes the beach as being in front of Dukes Mound and Brighton Coach Park (theglobetrotterguys.com), which helps identify the seafront area when approaching from the city. The beach parking guide puts an eight-hour stay at £20.10 (nudebeachmap.com).

The nearest Parksy listing is a 24/7 space at Asda Brighton Marina, 0.4 mi away, priced at £12 an hour. Brighton Marina also has a monthly space 0.5 mi away at £82 a month, giving longer-stay visitors a priced alternative to hourly parking.
At 0.5 mi, Parksy lists a 24/7 space near Royal Sussex Hospital at £4.50 an hour, a 24/7 space at Madehurst Close, Brighton BN2, at £4.50 an hour, and a space at Royal Sussex County Hospital at £4.80 a day. A 24/7 space on Maresfield Road in Brighton, BN2, is 0.6 mi away and costs £14 an hour. These spaces sit inland or around the marina rather than directly on the beach road.
Busy Seafront Periods and Local Parking Pressure
The beach road, Madeira Drive, carries pay parking beside the seafront (walkingclub.org.uk). The local guide describes Brighton Marina as a large car park, while the marina's four-hour free period can make it attractive for shorter visits (walkingclub.org.uk).
Brighton Marina has very tight turns, a point specifically highlighted for drivers using the car park (walkingclub.org.uk). The beach is also described as being in front of Dukes Mound and Brighton Coach Park (theglobetrotterguys.com), so the approach includes a coach-park and seafront setting rather than a quiet residential street. The supplied local guidance identifies pay parking on Madeira Drive and the four-hour free marina option, but gives no separate surrounding-street restrictions.
Walking and Rail Access From Brighton Station
Brighton station is the relevant rail arrival point for reaching the Kemptown seafront, with the coastal route continuing east towards the site. A local guide places the beach at Dukes Mound and Brighton Coach Park and describes the walk from the town as 30 minutes east along the coast (theglobetrotterguys.com).
Walking from Brighton station therefore suits visitors who would rather avoid seafront parking, while drivers using Brighton Marina can combine the four-hour free parking offer with the coastal approach. The station-to-beach walking time is not separately stated in the supplied place facts, so the 30-minute figure applies to the town-to-beach coastal walk described by the local guide (theglobetrotterguys.com).
