We are often asked about our favorite naturist destinations. Which place do we like the most for our nude vacations? It’s a question to which we honestly can’t give a solid answer. All places are so different and provide such a diversity in naturist experiences. Often we prefer to bend the question a little bit and talk about the country which definitely has the most options for naturists: France. We had explored some of … 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
Let’s start with getting the elephant out of the room. There are some rumors going around lately that naturist campsite La Sablière will soon turn textile. Of course, if there’s smoke there must be something burning. The reason for these rumors is a recent take-over of the campsite by the company Capfun. An owner who turned not al that long ago a naturist campsite into a textile one. Nevertheless, we have many reasons to believe … Read more
The river La Cèze, in the north of France’s Gard region, could probably better be nicknamed the “naturist river of France”. Or at least the part of it where we were heading to next. No less than three naturist campgrounds in a radius of maybe a kilometer or so have access to the river. We don’t have to tell you that bathing suits are a very rare sight in this place. Our first skinny dip … Read more
The Provence is one of France’s most iconic regions and probably also one of the country’s most visited ones. Not only by tourists, by the way. Many artists from the previous centuries have found their way to the Provence and fell in love with the huge lavender fields, the sunflowers, the typical villages, and the stunning landscapes. And probably also with great food and excellent wines. Paul Cézanne used to live in the Provence, Pablo … 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
The south of France is such a varied region with such an abundant mix of landscapes, cultures, and impressions that it’s almost impossible to compare one part with another. The hills are completely different than the coast. The Atlantic coast is nothing like the Mediterranean one. Even on the Mediterranean coast, the east side can’t be compared to the west. Luckily, in France, no matter which region you decide to visit, you can be sure … Read more
Cap d’Agde probably doesn’t need an introduction. Many have visited the huge naturist resort at least once in their lives. Even if you haven’t been there yet, the name probably does ring a bell. Or you’ve already heard some stories about the place. Those stories aren’t always very positive and that was the exact reason why we kept avoiding a visit to Cap d’Agde. Until now. More and more we started to think that, … Read more
Something about the smaller family-run naturist campings is that they always seem to be a work in progress. That’s not necessarily a negative thing. Often guests return the year after curious about what has changed during the winter. Naturist camping Terme d’Astor in the south of France’s Dordogne region is not such a place. When we asked the management, a bit habitually, what their plans for improvements are, they bounced the question back at us: … Read more
Going on a nude vacation in France always feels a bit like coming home. France just breathes naturism. We can’t think of any other country which has such an abundance of places where you can get comfortably nude in a social setting. There are probably more naturist campsites in France than there are bowling alleys. Our plan for the following months is to get a taste of all that France has to offer to the … Read more
