Naturist campground Arnaoutchot in Vieille-Saint-Girons, France

Review: Arnaoutchot in Vieille-Saint-Girons, France

For the next stop on our little “Tour de France”, we drove further south towards a department called Landes, another popular tourist destination at the Bay of Biscay. We were on our way towards Vielle-Saint-Girons in the south-west corner of the regional park. The colorful ride could have been reason enough to visit the area but of course, we came here to visit naturist camping Arnaoutchot (or shortly: Arna). We had been told that Arna … Read more

CHM Monta in Vendays-Montalivet, France

Review: CHM Monta in Vendays-Montalivet, France

The origin of naturism has been subject to a lot of debate. Many historians who studied the lifestyle will point out a period in the early 20th century when the German Dr Heinrich Scham wrote the book Nacktkultur. Some, however, say it started already during the industrial revolution when a Belgian guy first used the term “naturism”. And others will tell you that it was way earlier, during Roman times when naked sports were more … Read more

Review: Euronat in Grayan-l'Hopital, France

Review: Euronat in Grayan-l’Hopital, France

When people talk about going to the south of France, immediately the Mediterranean coast pops into mind. The mild weather, the long beaches where bikini tops have always been a rarity, places like Nice, Cannes, and Saint Tropez where half of Hollywood has a boat in the harbor and of course the world-famous naturist destination Cap d’Agde. We often forget that the south of France has another coast, the Atlantic one, which is (at least … Read more

24 hours naked in Paris

24 Hours naked in Paris

We love city tripping. A couple of days away exploring a different culture, tasting different foods and watching life from a terrace with some craft beers or local wines… Who doesn’t like that? Some time ago, these kinds of vacations were hard to combine with a nakation. But nowadays the cities start to see the advantages of also providing options for the naturist traveller who wants just that little bit more. Paris, which happens to … Read more

O'Naturel: The first naked restaurant in Paris

O’Naturel: The first naked restaurant in Paris – CLOSED

UNFORTUNATE NEWS: The owners of O’Naturel have announced that the restaurant will shut down on February 16th 2019.   Because the weather in Canada started to turn cold and grey, our time to move on had come. Less than twelve hours after we boarded the plane in Montreal we touched ground in one of Europe’s most amazing cities. Although a good nap sounded like a great way to get rid of our jet lag, we … Read more

Getting Naked in Ontario and Quebec

Getting Naked in Ontario and Quebec

Of course, the main goal of this trip up north was a search for the most wonderful places for Canadian naturists and tourists looking for a nude experience in Canada. Searching for everything about nudism in the country. Bare Oaks family naturist resort was a name that had been ringing in our heads for quite some time but we also wanted to find the other nudist resorts. We wanted to explore the greatest nude beaches … Read more

La Pommerie near Montreal, Canada

Review: La Pommerie near Montreal, Canada

Sometimes we use the term “naturist resort” or “naturist camp” or “naturist place” or “naturist spot” for places where life is lived at the bare essentials. At least clothing-wise. We prefer not to use “naturist colony” because we feel that it gives a bit of a negative undertone to nude recreation. And sometimes we even use “naturist domain”, a pretty nice term if you ask us but after this blog post, we will, unfortunately, have … Read more

Centre Naturiste Oasis near Montreal, Canada

Review: Centre Naturiste Oasis near Montreal, Canada

Just like Belgium, Canada has also a French-speaking part: Quebec. It had been our plan from the beginning to try to divide our bare time between Ontario and Quebec, the two Canadian states with the most opportunities for naturists, and the time had come for us to move on and try to remember our best French. Something that would prove to be not as easy as we initially had thought. All nudist resorts in the … Read more

Sunward near Ottawa, Canada

Review: Sunward near Ottawa, Canada

A lot of what we had heard before about Canada had come true in and around Toronto. This had proven to be the perfect starting point for the Canadian lap of our big journey. We had experienced our first nude cruise and went to the world-famous naturist resort Bare Oaks. But what we were still missing was that great wilderness. The one we used to see on National Geographic. Lakes, forests, snow-capped mountains, and the … Read more

Bare Oaks Family Naturist Park near Toronto, Canada

Review: Bare Oaks Family Naturist Park near Toronto, Canada

The concerns we had about what Canada would be able to provide us when it comes to naturist opportunities were already blown away when we met Attila, our host for the first days, who showed us what everybody meant with “the Canadian friendliness”. Our second day in the country we already had the opportunity to meet about 50 Canadian nudies during the naked cruise on Lake Ontario and we instantly knew that we were about … Read more
