Montenegro beaches - Red Head (Crvena Glavica) Beach Visit

Sadly there aren't too many official Naturist/Nudist/FKK/ beaches in Montenegro although the nature of the coastline means it's not that hard to find a secluded spot in which you can properly enjoy sunbathing and swimming.
There are two well known beaches in Montenegro. One is on the naturist island resort of Ada Bojana - a lovely stretch of sandy beach in the south of Montenegro on the Albanian border. The other is a section of the Club Riviera Hotel resort beach at Nijvici close to the Croatian border. Although part of the textile hotel, this beach is open to the public and can be accessed by walking through the hotel grounds and down to the sea. It's a small sand/gravel beach but the views across the bay are stunning, the water is clear and clean and the vibe during the summer is friendly and welcoming. It's on our doorstep and our favorite beach in Montenegro. If you're chasing the sun then the best time to visit is the morning as the cliffs rise sharply behind the beach and block the sun from early afternoon but a short swim out will find you bathed in sunshine throughout the day. That said the shade can be a blessing in the Montenegro summer heat.
Running our own resort leaves us precious little beach time during the summer but now we're closed for winter we recently went in search of another FKK beach we'd heard about. The rough translation from local language is Red Head Beach (Crvena Glavica). It's actually part of a camping site (Auto Kamp) which is clearly signposted on the main road south from Budva towards Petrovac. Like our site, the campsite appeared to be closed for winter and a little basic by European standards but we may be doing it an injustice as our site looks rather bleak during the winter too.
We were able to drive a 4x4 around the site looking for access to the coastline. Eventually we found painted signs on the road that indicated paths leading down to a couple of small rocky coves apparently reserved for naturists. It immediately became clear how the beach got it's name as the sea has eroded spectacular coves from the red rock strata. The beaches were deserted but the paths were somewhat of a scramble to negotiate. Not beaches for the infirm. We were running out of time and despite the sun there was quite a cold wind blowing so we decided not to stay but at least we found it.
If there are any members who have visited this beach and campsite during the summer could you post a reply and tell us what it's like in peak season.
