The nectarine is a Cultivar Group of peach that has a smooth, fuzzless skin. Though grocers treat fuzzy peaches and nectarines as different fruits, they belong to the same species. Regular peach trees occasionally produce a few nectarines, and vice versa. They were first grown in 1616.

That's like asking what the difference between an apple and an orange is.
It's two different fruits.
Different flavor.
Different look.
Besides, peaches are fuzzy. ^^
