We were at Hawksbill last a LONG time ago, maybe 15 years ago, and we only went on a day pass, so our memory might not be the best. At that time, the beach itself had a lot of coral, and there were only a couple places to get into the water that you wouldn't need water shoes for. To get TO the nude beach was a decent walk from the rooms. The beach itself might have been maybe half the length of Papagayo to Pedro's section of Club O beach, although my memory may be a little bad there. There are NO services on the nude beach at all, so you need to bring in your own food and drink and there are no restrooms there. When we were there--again--a LONG time ago---the chairs were not in particularly good shape on that beach and I don't remember any umbrellas or shade, but that I wouldn't vouch for personally. I understand the resort is now an a/i.
