A Winter Vacation at Vera Playa in Spain

A Winter Vacation at Vera Playa Naturist Village in Spain

Vera Playa has been on our to-go list for as long as we can remember. It’s Spain’s most popular naturist destination, and probably also the largest one, receiving thousands of visitors per day in the summer months. We just had to see with our own eyes what all the fuss was about. The original plan was to go to Vera Playa in late autumn of 2020, but COVID completely messed up that plan. As we … Read more

Review: Naturist Campsite Devèze in Gers

Review: Naturist Campsite Devèze in Gers

France is the world’s most visited country. Every year, millions of tourists head over to soak up the culture, drink the wine, explore nature, and visit the many naturist resorts. Although France is quite a large country, it’s interesting to see that most of these tourists tend to flock to the same regions. Even if you’ve never been to France, you may have heard of Dordogne, Provence, Côte d’Azur, and obviously Paris.   But France … Read more

The different types of naturism

Somewhere around late 2008, we had quite some questions about naturism. We had just been naked among complete strangers for the very first time, and we had enjoyed it very much. But the feeling was double. On one hand, we were longing for more, because it had been such a great experience. But on the other hand, there was nobody in our circles who seemed to do this as well. It felt difficult to talk … Read more

Naturism in South Africa

Although naturism has quite a long history in South Africa, the country never really appeared on any naturist map because the clubs and resorts mostly focused on a national public. But those days are gone, more and more South African naturist resorts are attracting an international public and thanks to the warm(ish) weather year-round, they are becoming pretty successful at this. Most naturist resorts are within easy driving distance from the largest cities (and airports) … Read more

Getting comfortable around naked people

Getting comfortable around naked people

You are not going to believe this… The other day, we received a message from a reporter at an online magazine, asking us to comment on a message from a reader who feels uncomfortable when his nudist girlfriend spends time naked with her dog. Even claiming that “it’s something out of an illegal adult movie for her to be naked with an animal all the time”.   We thought it was a joke. Until we … Read more

Naturism in Dominican Republic

When we think about the Dominican Republic, we think of diverse wildlife, stunning natural beauty, and landscapes adorned with mountains and lakes. And we think of tropical warmth and sunshine. Lots and lots of sunshine. Honestly, we were surprised when we heard that the Dominican Republic is also a naturist vacation destination. We didn’t know that parts of the country have warm climates all year round, making it perfectly possible (and very comfortable) to be … Read more

And of course, we think of tropical warmth and ample sunshine. Maybe not so surprising, Saint Martin is also a naturist haven, as it used to be home to the famous Club Orient resort. The island provides a perfect setting for those seeking a clothing-optional vacation. With warm climates prevailing throughout the year, it’s … Read more

Twin Falls Naturist Retreat in NSW, Australia

Review: Twin Falls Naturist Retreat in NSW, Australia

Something we quickly learned from travelling in Australia is that this is a country of extremes and contrasts. We had seen cold and rain and hot and sunny, sometimes all in one day. We left the dry outback behind us for a short drive down the coast. Well, that’s short by Australian standards, eventually it would take us several days and more than 1000 kilometres before we got to our next destination. Hidden in a … Read more
