When public nudity is not an option

We can consider ourselves very lucky living in a place where nudist facilities are quite common. But even here, there are still many people who can not enjoy public nudity because of shame or fear for the reaction of their partner, family or friends. Others were born in a country where public nudity is forbidden by law or religion. Can they also be naturists? Of course they can!   WiKi gives quite a good definition … Read more

The Naked Results

For the 6 month birthday of our baby called Naked Wanderings, we were wondering if we were going in the right direction. Well… not really wondering… but it’s always interesting to hear what our readers (Yes, You!) like about this website… So we created The Naked Survey, a list of 9 questions, which has been online for about a month.   First of all we’d like to thank everyone who participated! Very very much! We learned … Read more

REVIEW: Rigas hotel in Skopelos, Greece

We wanted to visit one last island before leaving Greece and running away to someplace where the winter can’t get to us. We had visited an Ionian island, two Cyclade islands, and Peloponnese which basically is also a huge island. So our eye fell on a small group of islands in the north of Athens: The Sporades.   Skiathos is known to be the most popular island, Alonissos the least (it would probably quite deserted … Read more

Nakations: The big travel trend of 2018

More and more people prefer to spend their holiday or a part of it naked. The numbers don’t lie. We believe that at the moment the annual amount of money spent on naturist holidays goes in the billions. An enormous leap from “only” 400 million in 2003. And this is just getting started, more and more people are finding their way to the nudist spots. It’s a misunderstanding that nakations (a combination of the words … Read more

Review: Au Naturel resort in Tejakula, Bali

We like to save the best for last. After spending some naked time in a private villa and in a villa resort, we were very much looking forward to moving on to Au Naturel, the one and only couple-friendly (we have to add this because there are two other nudist resorts on the island which are men only) nudist resort in Bali.   As soon as we arrived we were approached by a gang of … Read more

Review : Barefeet Naturist Resort in Bangkok, Thailand

UPDATE: There is a new (2023) version of this review, read it here. Finally. For a very long time, we had been looking forward to coming to Thailand, especially after our issues in finding a decent spot to get naked in other parts of Asia. This was going to be a country with opportunities for naturists, a country where we would be able to spend days and days in the nude. And Barefeet Resort would be … Read more

Casablanca guest house in Zipolite, Mexico

Review: Casablanca Guest House in Zipolite, Mexico

Our third and last place to stay in Playa Zipolite and yet it was completely different than the other two. It was the only one we’ve stayed at which is not the laid down Zipolite beach and we have to say that we were not so sure about how it would be. In the end, Playa Zipolite is the official nude beach and we figured that staying away from that beach would not really improve … Read more

The clothing optional beach in Zipolite, Oaxaca, Mexico is perfect for all nudists and naturists

Getting naked in Zipolite, Mexico

Oh, Zipolite… From the moment our toes touched the warm sand on your nude beach we knew that we were going to like this place. A lot!   Initially, we had planned to stay about 10 days in town, after busy California and rushing through central Mexico we felt that we needed a couple of days off. To relax on a laid back beach, have some beers, let the days pass by, and catch up … Read more

Malicious websites stealing naturist pictures

Stop stealing our naturist photos (and hijacking naturism)!

Some time ago a friend brought it to our attention that one of our photos had been used by a Twitter account called @BeNudeToday. Without our approval of course. This has happened before to us and honestly, what can we say? Ever since the beginning of Naked Wanderings we have been “stealing” pictures from the internet as well. Before we started this journey we didn’t particularly have a huge album with naturist photos and we … Read more

Is it nude? Fun with censorship

Is it nude? Fun with censorship

A couple of weeks ago a friendly follower pitched us the website #isitnude. Basically it uses artificial intelligence to figure out whether a picture contains nudity or not. Sounds familiar? If you ever had a Facebook or Instagram ban for nudity (often not legit, but that’s another story) you know exactly why we found this subject interesting. Although we don’t have proof of this, we’re pretty sure that these artificial intelligence algorithms are exactly what … Read more
