The first time we visited Costa Natura was in the middle of wintertime. It was a lovely experience but overall we kinda missed a more vibrant vibe. So we promised ourselves that the next time we would visit would be in spring or summer. We remembered this promise a few days after we booked again at Costa Natura. Again in the middle of winter. This time, however, it would be our New Year’s Eve … Read more
Gran Canaria is one of the most popular clothes-free destinations in Spain, and that is largely thanks to the famous nude beaches of Maspalomas and Playa del Inglès. For those who want to spend more time in the nude than just on the beach, right in between those two popular destinations is Magnolias Natura. A boutique-style hotel where you can be 100% clothes-free How to get to Magnolias Natura As Gran Canaria is … Read more
We have been to many naturist resorts. Some in the most scenic places, some in the most vibrant places, and some in the most unpronounceable places. And sometimes, we get to one where we can check off all three. We had first heard about Bunculuka years ago, but only when we stepped into the reception a couple of weeks ago and a friendly face said “Welcome to Bunculuka”, we realised that we never got … Read more
Is it just us, or do you also immediately think about the Amazon when someone says the word “rainforest”? We often seem to forget that there is more than one rainforest. Like the Daintree in northern Queensland, which is 10 million years older than the Amazon, making this the oldest rainforest in the world. In size, Daintree definitely can’t compete with the Amazon, but it can in biodiversity. In fact, it is home to … Read more
After almost 7 years of continuous travelling to naked places around the world, we think that we’ve seen our fair share of what’s on offer. We’ve been to naked cities in France and Spain, visited the largest naturist domain in the world and the busiest nude beach in the USA, went high-end in the Caribbean, on a naked cruise in Croatia, visited clubs, resorts, and nude beaches in pretty much every continent. The list goes … Read more
When we started planning this New Zealand trip and more and more naturist clubs found their way onto our itinerary, we wondered whether we weren’t overfilling our bucket. We would literally hop from one naturist club to another, all within just a few hours driving distance. How different could they really be? Will we not end up seeing the same things over and over? Will it not all become a blurry mix of memories that … Read more
One of the things we enjoyed a lot about naturism in New Zealand is not just that there are quite a lot of naturist clubs, but also that they are very well spread across the country. No matter where you live or where you’re staying, there’s always a club within less than a 2-hour drive. For tourists like ourselves, no matter which region we wanted to visit, we could be certain that we could … Read more
It’s interesting how naturist clubs around the world have a lot of similarities. Obviously, you’ll find naked people in all of them, but there will also be a central building (often called the clubhouse), there will be some sports facilities, there will be events and social gatherings and most often there will be lots of greenery as well. Yet, every naturist club is different. Some are very tranquil places where peace and quietness are … Read more
It’s fair to say that naturism in New Zealand has surprised us. Not just the possibilities, the abundance of unofficial nude beaches and the more than 20 naturist clubs spread around the country. But also the variation in what’s on offer. Some clubs are located in suburbia while others are in the middle of nature. Some are on quite large domains, while others are cosy with just some handsful of campsites. Like the Bay of … Read more
Naturism in New Zealand is very hierarchically organised, with a national federation at the top of the pyramid and in the lower layer, clubs spread around the country. But there are exceptions, in the Bay of Plenty region we headed to one of the very few commercial naturist resorts in New Zealand. How to get to Katikati Naturist Park Katikati Naturist Park is named after the town where it is located, in the northeast of … Read more
