If you ever find yourself in this situation, first of all, welcome to the team! Secondly, here’s a great tip: Head over to Planet Nude for inspiration.

Are you a Naturist or a Nudist?

Are you a Naturist or a Nudist?

A few months ago, someone told us she had almost cancelled her holiday because the resort’s website used the word “nudist.” Well, that’s probably not such a strange case. We imagine that it must happen now and then that people randomly book a place on websites like Booking.com and only later discover that bikinis are kind of pointless there. That does happen. But this case was different.   She knew very well she was going … Read more

10 Facts about the Bright Future for Naturism

10 Facts about the Bright Future for Naturism

The other day, we picked up a naturist magazine (yes, those still exist), and while flipping through the pages, we noticed that many articles focused on the past. Not events from earlier this year, but things that happened even before we were born.   Don’t get us wrong. We are all in favour of praising the people who made a difference, who stood on the barricades and faced serious consequences to make the world more … Read more

American nude beaches are in danger (and you can help)

American Nude Beaches are in Danger (and You can Help)

After spending a lot of time in Europe lately, especially in countries like Spain, France, the Netherlands, and Croatia, it’s hard to imagine a world without nude beaches. They’re everywhere, and they’re thriving. Often, this is to the annoyance of certain YouTubers who have to wake up at the crack of dawn just to be able to film a beach before it fills up.   Nude beaches in Europe work, and governments seem to understand … Read more

Vanlife Meets Naturism: The Perfect Combo?

Van Life meets Naturism: The Perfect Combo?

We don’t remember exactly where we got the idea that people who travel in a van are more likely to spend time without clothes. Maybe it’s because we always noticed so many campers at naturist resorts, which back in the day, was pretty much the only place we saw lots of them.   Or maybe it’s because we linked van life with boat life. If you’ve ever been on the water in Croatia or the … Read more

10 Amazing Nude Beach Bars

10 Amazing Nude Beach Bars around the World

We’ve always loved a good nude beach. Sand between our toes and the sun on our skin. Well, at least for an hour or so. Because you see, we’re not really baking-all-day-on-the-beach kind of people. At some point, we want a cold drink, maybe a bite to eat, and definitely a proper chair. But we don’t really want to get dressed for all that. This is where nude beach bars come in, they’re the best … Read more

Why Nude Beaches Disappear in the Summer

Why Nude Beaches Disappear in the Summer

Has it ever happened to you that you hike for half an hour in the blistering heat, following GPS coordinates to what’s supposed to be a pristine nude beach, and when you round the final rocky outcrop, all you discover is a sea of bathing suits? If it hasn’t, LUCKY YOU!   Unfortunately, we’ve found ourselves in this situation quite a few times during the last month. For example, in northern Italy, we visited 7 … Read more

10 Nude Beach Mistakes You DO NOT want to make

10 Nude Beach Mistakes You DO NOT Want to Make

We all make mistakes, that’s what makes us human. Sometimes, they can become a source of great stories for family gatherings. Except when they happened when you were naked, in the wrong place, and with an angry crowd chasing you.   Most of the mistakes below are real-life examples, but only a few happened to us personally. Some of these we actually shared at the family dinner table, but we have quite open-minded families.   … Read more

Hot, Naked, and Not Dying: Your Heatwave Survival Guide

Hot, Naked, and Not Dying: Your Heatwave Survival Guide

Nick got sunburned the other day. Before you start feeling sorry, wait until you hear where it happened… In the Netherlands. We’ve travelled to some of the hottest spots in the world, places like Bali and Thailand, where the equator is so close that you can almost touch it. We were in Mexico and Brazil. We’ve once been naked on an island in Australia for three days. But no, the sun hit us right in … Read more

First Time at a Nude Spa

First Time at a Nude Spa? Here’s Exactly What to Expect

“Do I have to be completely naked?” “Will people stare at me?” “What if I do something stupid?“   If you’ve ever been curious about visiting a nude spa but held back by these exact questions, you’re not alone. This is precisely what raced through our heads when we were standing in front of the door of the spa centre. This was going to be the first time that someone would see us naked who’s … Read more
