The days when naturists didn’t do much else than camping in the woods are long gone. During the last decades, more and more people became interested in nude traveling. Sharing the naturist values of respect for each other, the joy of non-sexual nudity, and the love for nature. But not necessarily very interested in sleeping in a tent. Whenever there’s a certain interest, there’s someone who will take care of the new gap in the … Read more
The term “family naturist campsite” can be interpreted in several different ways. Sometimes it’s meant that the campground management does a lot for visiting families. Other times it’s about the owners, who are running the campground with the whole family. And we’ve even seen cases where the whole staff just considers each other as a family and thus calls themselves a family naturist campsite. On some rare occasions though, we find a place where … Read more
What do you do when you found the perfect naturist resort and you don’t ever want to leave again? More and more resorts have started to offer the option to buy your own place at the domain or to rent a piece of land on a yearly basis where you can put down your camper or caravan. Your own place at a naturist resort, where you can come to live or that you can retreat … Read more
Our trip through the French Aquitaine region was already halfway and we figured that it was time to leave the coast behind. We had visited several wonderful naturist beach campings and our next destination, naturist camping Domaine Laborde, would take us towards another very famous tourist destination: The Dordogne. Domaine Laborde is part of the naturisme.com group, a collaboration of six naturist campings in France with the purpose of promoting their domains and naturism in … Read more
After our recent experiences at Cap d’Agde, the idea of naturism at the French Mediterranean coast got a bitter taste. But we don’t give up that easily and decided to give the region a second chance. At less than a half-hour drive from Cap, we found another Mediterranean naturist beach resort called Sérignan Plage Nature. Also located at a popular nude beach. Would this place be able to bring us back to naturism as we … Read more
If there’s one concept of naturism which we didn’t really find in Europe (until today) it’s clothing optional. It’s a difficult subject altogether, especially seen from a global point of view. In the Americas, “clothing optional” is used to point out nudist resorts and clothing is most often not really an option. In Europe on the other hand, clothing appeared to be an option at most naturist places. At least in some parts or at … Read more
Gran Canaria is one of the most popular clothes-free destinations in Spain, and that is largely thanks to the famous nude beaches of Maspalomas and Playa del Inglès. For those who want to spend more time in the nude than just on the beach, right in between those two popular destinations is Magnolias Natura. A boutique-style hotel where you can be 100% clothes-free How to get to Magnolias Natura As Gran Canaria is … Read more
Every summer roughly 2 million naturists find their way to France for a nude vacation. 2 Million! That’s a lot of people. That’s the population of Slovenia. They’re not all Slovenians though. Naturists from all over the world put France on their nude itinerary. Interestingly, the variety of naturist accommodations in France is not what one would expect. The large majority of places are campings and we’ve met plenty of naturists who didn’t have a … Read more
Praia do Pinho in Brazil’s Santa Catarina state at somewhat 80 kilometers north of Florianópolis is a huge milestone for naturism in Brazil. It’s often considered Brazil’s first naturist beach (although opinions tend to differ), where social nudity was practiced before it was even legal in the country. The first naturists were spotted at Praia do Pinho in the early eighties. By 1986 a local naturist association AAPP (Friends of Praia do Pinho) was … Read more
Some European countries, like France and Croatia, are known for their large naturist resorts. There you can spend days in the nude without ever feeling the need to head into the clothed world. We never considered that the Netherlands could also have a spot like this. We always considered the Netherlands a country where naturists travel from, not travel to. Well, until we visited Flevo Natuur. It has to be said that Flevo Natuur … Read more
