Scottish Naturist

2010-02-08T11:54:00.002Z

Allure Naturist Massage : More naturist news from in and around the UK as a man who admitted being naked on an East Neuk beach was cleared of a breach of the peace charge. Derek Holliday (59), Abbotsford Court, Glenrothes, was acquitted after a sheriff upheld a defence submission of no case to answer to the charge that on September 4, 2008, at Dumbarnie Links near Upper Largo, he paraded naked in front of a woman, and approached and followed her.

The case took almost 18 months to come to trial, and during evidence the alleged victim told the court that she was “now unsure” if the man in the dock was the one who caused her to “freeze” when he approached, holding his private parts.

The Dumbarnie coastal area is not an official naturist beach, but is on some websites as a place for nudists and naturists.

At an earlier stage the Crown accepted that just being naked in the locus would not be a breach of the peace, but it would seek a conviction over the allegation about approaching and following the woman.

In evidence she said that while walking her dog near Shell Bay Caravan Park, she spotted a man with binoculars at the beach, then lost sight of him.

Asked if she had seen the man again, the witness said that her dog had acted as if there was someone there, and then she saw a naked man about five metres away.

She said that although the incident had lasted a couple of minutes, it “seemed like forever.” The man ran off, and she called the police.

It had been such a long time ago, said the witness, that she was not sure if she would recognise him, although Holliday “resembled” him.

When asked why he had been at the beach, the accused had said it was “90% for an all-over tan, and 10% for self pleasure.”

He had acknowledged that a woman was about 200 yards from him, and that at one point he had taken off his shorts to cross some water. He said he had been told the area was a nudist beach.

Holliday accepted his actions could cause alarm, but he carried binoculars so that he would see anyone coming. If anything did happen, he said, it was unintentional and he intended no harm.

Naked German Ramblers

2009-09-29T09:51:00.002+01:00

More naturist news from in and around the world as Germany who traditionally tolerant of nudity and naturists, plan to give naked ramblers their own wilderness path is still some way from the sunny uplands. A campsite manager, Heinz Ludwig, aims to establish Germany's first official naked ramblers' footpath - an 18km (11-mile) route in the Harz Mountains. However it is not supported by the local community.

The onwer of the site was quoted as saying "It's a secluded area, away from traffic, in the GDR people used to bathe there, too."

He says some keen naturists have already tested the trail. The plan is to open it officially next May. A sign has been put up warning those averse to naturism that they might prefer to go elsewhere.

He went onto say; "If you don't want to see people with nothing on then you should refrain from moving on,"

Naturists Fight To Save Homes

2009-09-25T14:19:00.002+01:00

More naturist news from around the world as over 100 naturists at Glen Echo Park in Canada are set to fight for their rights under the Residential Tenancies Act in a series of Landlord and Tenant Board hearings in Toronto originally scheduled for October some of which have now been moved forward to September 28th, due to impending sale of the Park on October 1, 2009.

Members of the community located about 50 km north of Toronto were caught off guard when they received a vaguely worded letter in late August from the current owners, Edward and Mary Todorowsky, saying their beloved Park was closing its doors October 1.

When members sought clarification from the Todorowskys, they received only vague and nebulous responses, if any. A registered letter sent by one resident asking clarification was simply ignored.

Members are scrambling to learn what their rights are and what options are available to them, given the sudden muteness of the owners and the numerous written assurances given in recent years that the Park would only be sold to individuals with the clear intent to continue the naturist community.

Lets hope they win through.

New Naturist Beach In Hartlepool

2009-09-24T13:19:00.002+01:00

More naturist news from in and around the UK as a move to formally designate a section of a popular beach for naturists is set to be discussed by council chiefs next week.
Hartlepool Borough Council was approached by the Three Rivers Outdoor Club earlier this summer asking for a naturist beach at the south end of Seaton Carew.

The established club, which has around 30 members, claim naturists are an "oft-misunderst minority group" and say there are no designated beaches in the North East.

They also claim it could give the local economy a boost and in a letter to the council, group members suggested designating the section of beach adjacent to Seaton Carew Golf Club, as an ideal spot for a 'clothing optional' area.

Good luck to them !!!

Naturist Rally

2009-09-10T15:19:00.002+01:00

More naturist news from around the world - Naturist group plans Sunday rally to protest the naturist ban at Trail 6 beach Orange County, which was to begin after Labor Day. A naturist group is asking beach-goers to ditch their clothes and bring signs this weekend to San Onofre's Trail 6 to protest the state's crackdown on public nudity at the state beach.

The announcement comes a day after officials with the state Department of Parks and Recreation said they would begin citing nude sunbathers at the traditionally clothing-optional beach. That nudist group contends the state would violate California law by issuing citations. They say a Superior Court ruling that sides with the naturists will stand until the state's Supreme Court decides to hear an appeal.

State park rangers will attempt to seek voluntary compliance before handing out citations at the beach, which has a more than 20-year tradition of nudity. The rally is scheduled to take place from 11:30 a.m. to 1 p.m. Sunday at the sound end of Trail 6 beach.

Peng Travel In Trouble

2009-08-31T10:20:00.004+01:00

As I reported earlier in the year about the troubled parent group - The future of Travelzest, a tour operator offering holidays ranging from naturist resorts to trips to Cuba and Morocco, is in doubt this weekend after the company failed to secure £2m pledged to it in a fundraising. A source close to the company claims that two shareholders withdrew an offer to inject fresh funds into the company after they tried to change the terms of the deal at the last minute.

AIM-listed Travelzest thought it had raised £5.7m through the issue of new shares, funds it needs to meet lending agreements with its banks. It announced on Friday morning to the stock exchange that investors had approved the share placing.

However, after the market closed in the afternoon, the company said that investors accounting for £2m of the new funds had failed to meet the deadline for paying the money, and that it would need to find an alternative means of securing the funds.

It will be a real shame if Peng are one of the companies to fall by the wayside this year !!!!!

Canada First Naturist Retreat To Close

2009-08-29T15:11:00.004+01:00

Some naturist news from around - as reported in the Canadian press this week by this time next month, about 150 nudists will be cast out of the province's oldest naturist retreat because their 100 acres of Eden is being sold to a private owner. The several dozen nudists who live within Glen Echo's grounds on campsites got their eviction notices on Tuesday. The nudist movement in Ontario had its genesis with Glen Echo Park, which was founded in 1955 as a cooperative.

Most in the community got their first taste of naturism at the site, which is nestled along the Oak Ridges Moraine in King Township. In its mid-1990s heyday, as many as 350 families were members. But interest in the movement has sagged across the world in recent years. Glen Echo's owners, Mary and Edward Todorowsky, are approaching 80. Since 2005, they've been trying to sell to someone within the nudist community, who would keep their sanctuary open. But after fours years of trying and several failed offers, the Todorowskys gave up.

The property was sold for a rumoured $2 million. There are three other nudist resorts in and around the GTA – Four Seasons, Ponderosa and Bare Oaks, which is not far from Glen Echo.

Teesside Naturists

2009-08-27T07:41:00.002+01:00

As reported in the local UK press recently A naturist club’s secretary believes nudist sites on two Teesside beaches would boost tourism by attracting the “buff pound” and give official status to sites already used for naked bathing. Three Rivers Outdoor club has made two separate applications to Redcar and Cleveland and Hartlepool Councils for two stretches of beach to be set aside for those who prefer their birthday suits to swimsuits.

John Thompson, secretary of Three Rivers Outdoor Club (TROC) for naturists believes nudist colonies in Redcar and Seaton Carew could help boost visitor numbers. He also believes nudist colony status would protect genuine naturists and members of the public from voyeurs and exhibitionists. John said: “We are looking for as many naturist beaches as we can get.

“There are 46 in the UK, mostly concentrated in the South and West coast and there is nothing for the population further up. It would be good for trade in Seaton Carew, Hartlepool and Redcar. It would attract the buff pound.” John believes the proposed nudist areas of North Gare, where the jetty goes out to meet the mouth of the Tees, and the beach adjacent to Seaton Carew Golf Club are secluded from the general public.

Spanish Naturists Kick Off

2009-08-26T11:50:00.002+01:00

As reported widely in the Spanish press this week - a naturist group is poised to take legal action against El Ejido council after it banned baring all on its beaches. Naturist associaiton, La Asociación de Naturistas-Nudistas de Andalucía (ANNA) believes that the position taken by El Ejido council is “illegal” and “anti-constitutional” and is currently taking legal advice.

The ban was introduced last December as part of widespread council reforms despite the best efforts of group members. ANNA spokesman, Rafael Ortiz, revealed he wrote to town mayor, Juan Enciso, last summer while the bill was being drawn up, warning him of its illegality and of their intention to challenge it.

Ortiz cited a ruling from the High Court of Andalucia (TSJA) which proved “this current bill only serves to terrorise normal citizens because it has no legal foundation”.

Mayor Enciso has denied ANNA’s claims. He explained: “Nobody challenged this decision while the bill was being drawn up.” He said that nudism was not allowed in any El Ejido beaches and that no official requests had been made to allow the creation of one.

New Naturist Beach To Be Found In Suffolk

2009-08-25T11:47:00.002+01:00

More local naturist news from around the UK. With only just a few wees left before one of Britain's oldest nudist beaches is closed, the search is on to find a suitable replacement spot up on the north Suffolk coast. The existing naturist beach at Corton, near Lowestoft, will become a general use area at the end of this summer season because coastal erosion has significantly reduced the amount of sand available for sunbathers.

Now Waveney District Council is speaking to local communities to try and find an alternative site for the naturists along the district's coastline, which stretches from Corton in the north, past Lowestoft to Southwold. In December last year, the council carried out a public consultation before deciding to go ahead with the plans to get rid of the naturist site, and said that they would explore other potential locations which are not as badly affected by erosion.

The new nudist beach would also have to have adequate parking and transport provision, good access to the beach, not be too overlooked and have support from the local community.

At least they have made a commitment to TRY and establish another area for the naturists.

Naked Ramblers Cause a Stir

2009-08-24T08:53:00.002+01:00

As reported in the UK National press this week a group of naturist ramblers has sparked controversy by organising walks through popular beauty spots. Unsupecting dog walkers and horseriders encountered the group of 28 nude walkers on the South Downs Way above the Sussex village of South Harting. A lady who was out walking her dog, said: “The chap in the lead said ‘We’re a group of naturist walkers. Do you have any objection to naked bodies?’

A group out horse riding also encountered the ramblers where reported assaying “We thought it was quite funny galloping up from the back of Harting Down to come across this line of bare bottoms with rucksacks."

Martin Bullen, chairman of the Singles Outdoor Club, and a retired design engineer from Frome, Somerset, said “We hold 17 walks a year all over the south on mid-week days to reduce the probability of confronting the general public. It is not our intention to cause distress.”

A spokesman for British Naturism added: “We have many groups who like to get involved in walking. They have no wish to cause trouble and simple nudity is specifically not an offence under the 2003 Sexual Offences Act.”

Government to look at naturists’ claim for equality

2009-08-23T12:53:00.002+01:00

As reported in the UK press today Harriet Harman is set to embrace yet another minority group who claim to be victims of discrimination – naturists. The Government Equalities Office, which is overseen by Labour’s deputy leader, is promoting claims that devotees of naturism and nudist campsites suffer prejudice equivalent to that experienced by gays, ethnic minorities and the elderly.

A submission written by British Naturism has been included in a review into discrimination. “Naturists encounter prejudice in employment,” it reads. “This is a particular problem for people in the caring professions and education. Any occupation requiring an enhanced Criminal Record Bureau check is potentially a serious problem.”

Naturism has spawned a thriving leisure industry referred to as “the buff pound”. As well as more than 100 naturist-friendly campsites across the UK, there are an array of luxury cruises where clothing is optional. In November Alton Towers, the Midlands theme park, will host its fourth “naturists only”

Wonder if the Government could make the weather a little more naturist friendly - lol ..

Skinny Dip '09 numbers announced

As reported in the World Press this week - The AANR (American Association for Nude Recreation) has announced that an inspiring 13,648 people participated in the baseline-setting skinny dipping record for the Guinness Book of World Records. As a wrap-up of Nude Week, 2009, naturist clubs across North America participated in this event on July 11 by encouraging their members and visitors to take a nude dip at exactly the same time.

Each resort then forwarded its count to AANR and the total was released on August 20. AANR resorts hope to beat their 2009 numbers next year in what will probably become an annual record-breaking attempt .

So, next year, even if you're not yet ready to "take the plunge" by visiting a nude resort, find a warm pool or a cool lake, shimmy out of your trunks, and become a nudist for a few minutes at least

Its Is Off For The Wyre Naturists

2009-08-21T16:40:00.003+01:00

As reported earlier this week in the UK press the plug has been pulled on plans for the area's first naturist camping festival, due to have been held next month in the grounds of an historic Over Wyre hall. Former Blackpool North Tory MP Dr Harold Elletson of Parrox Hall, Preesall, had agreed to rent part of his 300 acres for the 'Nudefest' organised by British Naturism (BN).
But the event – scheduled for September 11 to 13 – failed to pull in enough people and has now been cancelled.

BN said that by the time the deadline for confirmed bookings for the Nudefest ended there had not been enough takers to make the event worthwhile. BN had said earlier this year they needed "a significant number of confirmed bookings" to ensure it went ahead. This week their spokesman Andrew Welch said the fact that the event was in mid-September could have made nudist campers worried about the possibility of cold or wet weather.

BN hoped scores of caravan and tent owning naturists would camp in the grounds of the old hall, which has been in the Elletson family for generations. They had also indicated local people were welcome to join BN and attend what they called a "unique gathering".

Welsh Naturists Get The Boot

2009-07-23T14:18:00.002+01:00

As reported in the UK National press this week, naturists have been warned that they are not welcome on a seven-mile long beach which is popular with families. Police and rangers will patrol during summer in uniforms and plain clothes at Cefn Sidan in Carmarthenshire, and CCTV will also be used. "No Nudism" signs have been defaced, and officials say the area is attracting both those with sexual motives and genuine naturists.

British Naturism said the authorities should work with them. Carmarthenshire council, which manages the beach and the nearby Pembrey Country Park, said naturists had been visiting Cefn Sidan since the 1960s, but nudism was not and never had been permitted. An area of Morfa Dyffryn, near Barmouth in Gwynedd, is the only official nude sunbathing area in Wales.

Key West Might Get A Naturist Beach

2009-07-20T14:15:00.000+01:00

News just in for all you international naturists. Key West -- The come-as-you-are island city of Key West features a nude rooftop bar, guest houses with clothing-optional pools and the 10-day, world-famous debauchery known as Fantasy Fest, where body paint passes as clothing. On the island's public beaches, though, going au naturel has been illegal since 1983.

That might change soon. A group of naturists is campaigning to amend the city's nudity ordinance to allow a section of city-owned beach to go nude. City Commissioner Bill Verge plans to propose at this week's city commission meeting an Oct. 6 referendum. Advocates say the change could bring more tourists to the cash-strapped city.

Monroe County Commissioner Sylvia Murphy liked the idea when it surfaced in April. ''No one visiting us [from other countries] understands why we are such prudes,'' she said.

One Last Summer For Naturists

2009-07-14T17:02:00.002+01:00

As reported in the California press, naturist beachgoers will have one last summer to sunbathe in the buff on a strip of San Onofre State Beach. State parks officials say they will give nude sunbathers verbal warnings that clothing isn't optional on the 1,000-foot stretch of beach, officials say nudists will be cited after that and arrested if necessary. This ends a long battle to keep the beach 'clothing optional'.

California officials decided to crack down on the nudity at the 1,000 foot stretch of beach last year. Parks officials said they were rescinding their longtime policy because of an increasing number of complaints from the public of lewd behavior. Nudists have frequented the beach at the south end of the state beach near Camp Pendleton for more than thirty years.

No Nude Down Under

Tourism Central Australia (TCA) has dropped out of negotiations over the creation of a nudist resort near Alice Springs. The idea of a resort was raised last year via an anonymous phone call to the organisation asking them to gauge the public's reaction. A homestead about 70 kilometres east of Alice Springs was considering the idea. TCA's Peter Grigg said he has now done all he can to push the part time nudist venture and it is up to the owners of the homestead as to what they decide.

"They are, as I'm aware at this point in time, trying to determine what their markets will be and will chase those markets," he said. "The primary interest for them at the moment is the four-by-four market, just because it's placed out there on the Binns Track and it's a spectacular part of the world to do any four-by-four activity."

Studland In The News Again.

Studland Beach was in the press again today as 3 new ‘Community Wardens,’ highly visible in bright yellow t-shirts, have begun patrolling Studland’s beaches to make all visitors and local residents feel even safer. The National Trust managed seashore has welcomed naturists for more than 90 years. The 800 metre long section known is the National Trust’s only nudist beach and is popular with people of all ages and with families. However, from time to time reports are made of sexual misconduct or activity that threatens to bring naturism into disrepute.

Safer Neighbourhood Sergeant Des Connor was reported as saying : “Between summer 2005 and summer 2008, nine sexual offences were recorded in the Studland area and we want to keep this number as low as possible.”

To combat this Dorset Police has teamed up with The National Trust and Studland Beach Users’ Action Group (SBUAG) to provide wardens, who have been given training by Dorset Police and The National Trust. They will patrol Studland peninsula throughout July and August and offer help and advice to beach users.

Sergeant Connor added: “The Studland peninsula is a very safe place where families can enjoy the summer. This new multi-agency approach will make the beach area even safer.”

Naturists Lose Beach Battle In California

2009-07-01T14:52:00.002+01:00

As reported in the US press today, a group of nudists who want to keep San Onofre State Beach's Trail 6 a clothing-optional beach have lost their latest legal battle, after a panel of justices at the 4th District Court of Appeal ruled that a policy that addresses nudity at state beaches is invalid. The ruling favored state officials who last spring decided to crack down on a more than 20-year tradition of nude sunbathing at the 1,000-foot stretch of beach.

Park officials said the agency followed the rules and did not violate any policy because they said they never set aside a designated area for nudity. They contend public nudity is not allowed on state beaches. Instead, state officials said, they chose to look the other way and allowed public nudity at the beach until they started getting complaints. Officials said the naturists have to adhere to a code in state law called nudity prohibited, which states that "no person shall appear nude while in any unit except in authorized areas set aside for that purpose by the department."

Seahorse Stir At Studland Bay

2009-06-29T13:53:00.004+01:00

Hello all you UK Naturists - hope you are enjoying the sunshine today I know I am. Earlier in the month I blogged a story about the seahorses found at Studland Bay. Well now a row has broken out over a protection zone to save the seahorses off my favourite bit of Dorset coastline. A voluntary anchor-free zone is being introduced at Studland Bay which is now home to the country’s largest breeding seahorse colony. It is planned that wardens will patrol and photograph the area to create a map of boating activity during the busy summer season.

Experts will then compare data from the seagrass in the anchor-free zone and a control zone where boats can anchor to judge the impact on the seahorse territory. But locals fear it will turn in to a ‘naming and shaming’ exercise with boats that are anchored in the bay named on the internet. They also believe the seagrass and seahorses are thriving as they and should be left alone - just a nature intended.

On a more practical note local people also argue that the village will suffer economically if the hundreds of boats that come each weekend in summer decide to stay away.

We will just have to wait and see what happens with this one !!!!

So far more than 30 ladies from across the country, including six from the Hampshire are, have all agreed to strip off for the semi-nude calendar which is currently in the process of being shot.

Nude Vollyball Tournament

2009-06-26T06:39:00.002+01:00

Here are some details of a naturist event detailed in the Canadian press. Bare Oaks Family Naturist Park is inviting the general public to participate in the 3rd annual Greater Toronto Naturist Volleyball Tournament. (July 1st to 5th) While participants do not have to be naturists/nudists to play, they must play nude. Whether that will put them at a disadvantage is yet to be determined.

Nudity in sports is a tradition that goes back thousands of years to the first Olympics. The Greek root of "gymnasium" is gymnos which means "nude". When liberated of clothing, the body is free to perform to its natural maximum. Volleyball and naturism/nudism is almost a cliché. But it is true that the sport has been incredibly popular within the naturist/nudist community and its roots can be traced back to 1927 in France.

Volleyball is just one of the many draws. In addition to Bare Oaks' many amenities, there will be a live band, campfires, and the restaurant will be open with a special event liquor license for the entire event. For families, there will be organized children's activities during the day.

Naked Rambler In Court Again

2009-06-24T17:38:00.005+01:00

In famous/infamous naturist Stephen Gough was forced to go undercover today at Perth Sheriff Court. The naturist, who the press has been dubbed ‘The Naked Rambler’, was arrested after he was found walking nude through the Fair City’s Edinburgh Road late last week. However in court the ex-marine, who has previously served prison sentences for exposing himself in public, refused to cover up when he was due to appear before Sheriff Michael Fletcher in the Tay Street dock. After Gough’s agent William Somerville grew exasperated at Gough’s lack of co-operation and washed his hands of the case an intermediate date was set for July 2 and a trial on July 16.

Is this guy really doing himself and or any other naturists any favours -however it is a little strange that no-one from the naked bike ride events had any hassle from any of the authorities that I know about ...

Obviously a single naked man if far more of a problem than 50 or naked men and women riding bikes through our streets ......

Naked Pride

2009-06-22T13:33:00.002+01:00

Hello all you naturists out there. Not only is the summer almost upon us but so is the PRIDE season. And if you are lucky enough to be over in the States there is a gay Pride event for naturists. The Bone Island Bare It All Weekend - South Florida's largest naturist event for gay men. Key West has been historically known as "Bone Island" for over two centuries, and Bone Island Bare It All Weekend gives that name a whole new meaning.

Two weekends each year, hundreds of gay naturists and guys who like to get naked fill up Key West's clothing-optional gay guesthouses. Featured events include dance parties, foam parties, pool parties, naked shopping, and the playful 'Bad Boys' party.

This weekend that ties in with the gay Pride is 17 - 19 July 2009.

Naturist cruises on the increase

2009-06-19T12:01:00.003+01:00

According to a recent report in Britain’s Sunday press, nudist cruises are on the increase. Cruising in the buff has been popular with Americans for some time now, but naturist cruise specialists are reporting an upsurge in guests from other countries, particularly Britain, from where some travel agents are booking 50% more clothes-free customers than they were a year ago.

Nudist cruises, or clothing-optional cruises, are always private charters of cruise ships. Some of the most popular are the romantic square-riggers of Star Clippers; Texas-based naturist cruise agent Bare Necessities has been quick to snap up a fortnight on Star Flyer, one of Star Clippers’ three ships, which will be based permanently in Tahiti. The lure of the Pacific islands is obviously a strong one, as the cruise has already sold out.

Naturist Charity Calendar

2009-06-18T13:55:00.002+01:00

In the local press today in Wiltshire naturist Mike Gould is definitely happy in his own skin so has no qualms in helping out and stripping off for a charity calendar. The 67-year-old and his naturist friends can be seen in the forthcoming 2010 calendar baring all in the snow, hanging out in gardens and getting all over body tans in the sun. The calendar’s naked models aim to raise £600 for charity Action for Blind People and have already reached £140.

Mike, of Severn Avenue, Greenmeadow, feels comfortable just pottering around in the nude at home and indded in his garden but would never venture into public. “I do all my gardening in the nude,” Mike was quoted as saying. “Our garden is totally secluded – it is not overlooked.

This is Mike’s third charity calendar – he raised money for the Prospect Hospice in 2007 and Action for Blind People last year. He started the calendar as an alternative way to raise money, as a heart bypass a few years ago now prevents him from taking part in other fundraising activities like running a marathon.

WELL DONE TO HIM !!!!!!!

Naked Fish

2009-06-16T19:57:00.003+01:00

Hello there all you UK Naturists WHAT fantastic weather we are having hope you are really enjoying it !!! and for the latest nude celebrity photo shoot - this has to be one of the most bizarre ones I have heard of. Apparently stocks of Bluefin Tuna are fading fast, and with a recent market survey suggesting an overwhelming majority of the fish available on the Japanese market are immature juveniles, it’s likely the things could fall below the level of a viable genetic population soon.

Celebrities who have already seen the film were so shocked that many have posed naked for the acclaimed photographer Ian Rankin to raise awareness. Greta Scacchi, who took part alongside Emilia Fox and Terry Gilliam, urged consumers to only buy sustainable fish to help stocks of all fish recover as well as the bluefin tuna.

Well there you go - the power of the naked BUM !!!! lol

The Naked Bike Ride Is A World Event

2009-06-15T13:54:00.002+01:00

Hello UK naturists looks like the weather is picking up for us. Well it seems that the naked bike ride really is a global event - I found this little snippet in the Washington Post today. Tour de France? More like Tour sans Pants. Under semi-sunny skies, the District's run of the fourth annual World Naked Bike Ride kicked off yesterday from Franklin Square downtown. Technically, folks on hand for the event weren't naked. D.C. has laws against indecent exposure, after all.

But several of the 30 or so riders found creative ways around that. A special tent was set up so riders could shed their street clothes and, using latex paint and other techniques, prepare for the ride in privacy.

"This is good for awareness," said Chris Bracken, 24, of the District, who, along with two friends, was participating in her first naked ride. "Nudity is always a good way to get someone's attention. The goal of the two-mile trip downtown was to protest oil dependency and promote bicycles as a transportation alternative. Of course, there are ways to make these statements while wearing clothes, but let's face it -- they're not nearly as attention-getting

2009-06-13T17:26:00.005+01:00

Hello you naturists - well despite it getting more than a little chilly yesterday evening and wearing nothing but their safety helmets, scores of cyclists took to the streets of Southampton for the third annual Naked Bike Ride. Much to the amazement of of the general public, around 150 brave activists stripped off for the protest ride, campaigning about both our car culture and dependency on oil.

With many of the riders sporting little more than colourful slogans and pictures, the riders also aimed to highlight the vulnerability of cyclists on the roads. The whole thing looked great !!! The ride started and finished at Southampton Common, but left a trail of both bemused and amused onlookers in their wake on a six-mile course through Portswood and the city centre.

Organiser Rob Jordan told the local press: “It’s a protest and a demonstration, but a joyous one, and we generally find that people give us a really warm reception.

And well done to all of them - it really was a great sight to see !!!!

The ride will take about an hour most likely. The dress code is as follows : Come as bare as you dare. Nudity makes a great statement, and many of us will be completely naked, but if you're more comfortable in a little clothing, that's fine too.

Naturist Holidays : Cuba

2009-06-11T11:35:00.002+01:00

If you are planning on a naturist holiday outside of the UK this sounds like a wonderful place. Located in the Jardines del Rey (The King's Garden) archipelago, north of the island of Cuba, Cayo Santa Maria is the ideal choice for a relaxing dream vacation. Much less touristic than other well-known Cuban destinations such as Varadero, Cayo Santa Maria will surely delight those who seek tranquility, luxury and beautiful beaches. This region has been declared a biosphere reserve by UNESCO.

Indeed, fans of naturism have finally found a nice location. Although "officially" forbidden by the Cuban constitution, an isolated section of the beach, west of the Sol Cayo Santa Maria Hotel, has been designated as a "Nature Beach" and allows naturists to freely indulge in this practice. On the other hand, naturism is not tolerated in the "hotel zone". It would be very inappropriate to walk nude on the hotel site or on the beaches of the hotel complexes.

Located right next to Santa Maria, the small island of Cayo Ensenachos responds to the concept of “one Island, one hotel"; its size is only 1.7 km2. Its two beautiful white powdery sand beaches are just as breathtaking as the ones in Santa Maria. People who do not wish to make a compromise on high-end services and fine dining on holidays will surely enjoy all the luxury and elegance offered by the Hotel Occidental Royal Hideaway. With its most fabulous facilities and dazzling surroundings, this five star hotel offers superior Spa packages, opulent accommodations, various activities and impeccable service.

Sounds like heaven.

Get Naked In County Kerry

2009-06-10T18:15:00.002+01:00

As reported in the local press today, naturists calling for the creation of a nudist beach at Inch strand are claiming the ban on nude bathing in Kerry is costing the local tourism industry thousands in lost revenue. Ahead of last Friday's local elections the Irish Naturist Association (INA) repeated their call on Kerry County Council to provide a "clothing optional" beach facility at Inch strand. The organisation sent letters to the county manager and all local election candidates seeking their support for a nudist area at Inch Strand.

According to the INA, naturists have been using Inch for nude sunbathing for years without any compliant from the public and now they are seeking official permission to turn a section of the popular beach into a nudist area.

INA president Pat Gallagher says that creating a naturist area at Inch could be worth a fortune to the local tourist economy.

"Such facilities are common place in almost all other EU member countries and are frequented by the many millions of European naturists. Naturist tourism generates billions of euros each year across Europe and is one of the fastest growing tourist segments worldwide," he said.

"We receive numerous inquiries from naturists each year as to where it would be possible to use beach facilities as part of their holiday should they come to Ireland. We have to advise that no such facilities are provided by local authorities. We are certain that many potential tourists are lost to Ireland because no such facilities exist," he said.

Move over all you naturists - you have got new neighbours at Studland Bay. The Seahorse Tust has been monitoring a number of sites around the UK, one of which is in Studland Bay in Dorset which has turned out to be a site of International importance. Our coordinators for Dorset, Steve Trewhella and Julie Hatcher, discovered Seahorses on the site in 2005 and since then we have made a number of amazing discoveries about British Seahorses and particularly this site.

Despite the longevity of the survey and the amount of knowledge we have already gained we need to know more about these very elusive animals and their secretive lives and Studland Bay gives us a unique opportunity to do this.

The British Seahorse Survey was set up in 1994 and is the longest running continuous survey of its kind in the world; it's this longevity that has allowed us to gain a greater insight into the world of two of the British Isles most enigmatic fish species.

Singles Outdoor Club Naturist Walks

2009-06-08T13:00:00.002+01:00

Yet another intersting Naturist Website I cam across over the weekend. You might be surprised to find out that it is possible to enjoy walking in the remoter parts of the countryside of South East England in the nude. The fact is that few people wander further than 200 yards from a car park. We often walk for several hours without meeting anybody and - weather permitting - have been able to remain nude for 80% or more on many of our walks which range from 9 to 12 miles.

The object of these walks is to enjoy the exhilaration of walking without the encumbrance of clothing. We are not planning to make any sort of political point, or to make any sort of challenge to other members of the public. It is our policy to carry "cover-up" garments which we put on when we cross a road, see other walkers approaching us from a distance, or realise that we are about to pass farmers working in their fields. Just occasionally we meet someone without warning, and just greet them with a cheerful "good afternoon." As far as we know we have not given offence to anyone in the 14 years that our walks programme has been in existence.

The walks programme for this year is now prepared and an outline is published on this site. If you would like to take part in these walks why not join SOC now, and you will receive full details of the walks as well as a wealth of information about other club activities. SOC forms an excellent opening into naturism for single people, but couples and married folk are also very welcome. You will find an application form on the main SOC website.

Travel firm founder in hot water

2009-06-07T18:02:00.003+01:00

As widely reported in the Financial press Travel Industry Chris Mottershead veteran finds himself defending his reputation. The travel industry chief who uncovered the mainsteam possibilities of naturist holidays is battling to save his reputation. Chris Mottershead was suspended in April after Travelzest, the company he founded, announced it was investigating an alleged “potential misappropriation of company funds”.

The heads of Travelzest’s various divisions - which include a naturist holiday operation, package trips to Cuba, and French villa hire - are to meet in London this month for what would normally be a routine management round table.

Peng Travel is the UK’s leading provider of naturist holidays. Founded in 1971, it pioneered the provision of package holidays from the UK to genuine naturist destinations around the world. Peng Travel was swallowed up by Travelzest when it was purchased by Travelzest back in May 2006

Sources close to the company suggest that those leading the probe are “no nearer knowing when it will conclude than they were when it started” and details of the inquiry are, to say the least, sketchy.

Meanwhile, Mottershead has come out fighting, denying having done anything wrong. He has instructed solicitors to sue Travelzest for defamation on the basis of its statement to the stock exchange announcing the investigation.

Whilst the share price of Travelzest has been effected by this it is not thought that any holidays will be.

Celebrities back plans to expand naturism on Hampstead Heath

2009-06-06T12:50:00.001+01:00

As reported in the local Uk press today, 100's of naturist campaigners including Julian Clary and human rights protestor Peter Tatchell are backing a scheme to increase the area for nude male sunbathing on Hampstead Heath. A petition with more than 1,000 signatures will be presented to the new Chairman of the Heath today (Thursday) calling for greater space for the naturists, expanding the small concrete plot they currently use next to the changing room at the men's swimming pond.

The campaign appeared in its early days on the letters pages of the Ham&High last May, when naturist Michael Peacock complained about the lack of space. Now, a year on, he is hoping he has enough public and celebrity support to free the nudists.

The 50-year-old bather said: "Last year the Ham&High published my letter and a cartoon on the subject and it's all kicked off from there. I, like many others, sent off my comments to the City of London Corporation but they were totally ignored. I decided to try to get something done and set up a petition." A total of 1,061 people are now backing his bid, which will be presented to the new chairman of the Heath Management Committee, Michael Welbank, at the bathing enclosure this morning.

Motorcyclenudes.org is a web-based “club” for naturists who are also motorcyclists. The Motorcyclenudes site now has coverage of our past events, pictures of members and their bikes, and much more in the memberzone. We have only been in existence for around four years, and so are still building our content.

"Motorcyclenudes has already held several nude bike rallies in the UK. Motorcyclenudes.org is a site aimed at naturists who are also motorcyclists. We are UK based, and activities are limited to the shores of Britain (at least they are for now!) We do have plans for Europe, and eventually, we may grow big enough to take over the world, but for that we need time!"

Their site is intended for genuine nudists who like to mix their passions for leathers whilst on the bike and the lack of them whilst off it.

Hampshire Naturists Get It Hot

2009-06-01T09:13:00.002+01:00

Naturists in the Hampshire area hit the jackpot again this weekend as the county basked in scorching temperatures again yesterday. Weather forecasters predicted that the mercury would climb to 27C (81F), the hottest day of the year so far. People grabbed their buckets and spades and flocked to the beach yesterday to make the most of “wall-to-wall” sunshine. It really was very very hot and so much sunshine.

Travel experts said there was congestion on roads leading to most coastal areas.

Traffic Masters head of travel Ross Gould said the A31 westbound through the New Forest towards Bournemouth and Poole had the most notable problems. He said: “The beachside resorts are hotspots for the holiday traffic. In the UK if there is any hint of sunshine people head straight to the coast.”

Matt Dobson, forecaster at MeteoGroup, said yesterday's highest temperatures fell short of the 26.5C (80F) reached on Friday, which was the hottest day of the year so far.

He added that the south enjoyed temperatures of up 21C (70F) by the sea.

OK You Naturists Its Official

OK all you naturists out there its official. Officials issue heatwave advice. People need to make sure they have a fair weather friend they can call on for aid in the event of a heatwave this summer, officials have advised. The Department of Health's Heatwave Plan urges everyone to be aware of the health risks faced by elderly friends and relatives during a hot spell.

The Met Office says it is too early to tell whether it will be a very hot summer this year, but the signs so far are that it will be warmer than our last two summers and conditions could well trigger its heatwave warning system.

In London, this would mean daytime temperatures had exceeded 32C and night-time temperatures were over 18C degrees. In the North West, it would be 30C and 15C, respectively.

Wayne Elliott, Head of Health Forecasting at the Met Office, said: "Summer is nearly with us and it's a good time to prepare for the high temperatures that we can experience in this country.

Hey I am not complaining and more of the same today.

Naturist Beaches In The UK : Newborough Warren - Malltraeth Bay - Anglesey

2009-05-28T12:58:00.001+01:00

Described as having "breathtaking landscape and unspoilt sands" and " superb views of Snowdonia and the Lleyn Peninsular" this is one of several beautiful beaches along this part of the coast. Newborough Warren is also a nature reserve. The beach itself is of fine, golden sand, backed by dunes. On-shore winds from the Irish Sea can be a problem at times. It is said that most naturists gather in the area to the south of the car park - midway between Llanddwyn Island and Abermenai Point:

"At high season - textiles do walk along here sometimes - just be sensible and don't be obvious. If you see the warden coming along the beach in his 4x4 - cover up - he is known to get just a tad irate! This area does have a regular gay group - but as a woman I feel safer amongst them than amongst "straight" people! Waters here are sheltered, and quite warm as the tide goes out, with shallow pools that you can wallow in. Views are unbelievably fantastic - especially on a sunny evening."

Getting There

OS Map Ref: SH 387 640

From the Menai Bridge on the A5, take the A4080 south to the village of Newborough (Niwbwrch). From there, a road - signposted "To the Beach / Traeth" - leads south to a car park on the coast - approx. 2 miles. This Forestry Commission road is subject to a toll ( £2.00 in 1999 - effectively includes parking charge).

Walk from the car park on to the beach and turn right (heading North in the direction of Llandwyn Island) towards the rocky promontory at Llanddwyn Island. Beyond this lies Malltraeth Bay and an area used by naturists - "a beautiful but plain, exposed and windy beach with open water." The walk from the car park is two to three miles in total.

Alternatively, turn left from the car park (heading south) and walk until the beach curves left a little at some high sand dunes. From here, the crowded part of the beach is more or less out of sight. There is room to sit amongst the edge of the dunes

Naked Ball Control

2009-05-27T10:14:00.001+01:00

Ahead of tonights big football game Manchester United midfielder Anderson has vowed to run naked around Rome's Olympic Stadium if he scores in the Champions League Final. His planned celebration may seem over the top, until you realise that he is still waiting for his first United goal - after 75 games for the club. The 21-year-old Brazilian, who will start for United against Barcelona tomorrow, is famed for his belligerence and an ability to break up play by hurrying the opposition.

He may not possess the flair or finesse of a Cristiano Ronaldo or Michael Carrick, but he is just as important to United's cause for the basic virtues he brings to the team.

But a goal is something that has eluded him in two years at Old Trafford - hence his plans for a celebration to remember.

"I'm going to strip myself butt-naked and run round the stadium if I score," said Anderson, before doubling up in laughter.

He may not have scored in normal time for United, but Anderson has twice shown his coolness under pressure by converting penalties in sudden-death shootouts.

Naturist Beaches In Italy

2009-05-26T10:27:00.000+01:00

Because Italy seems to be so dominated by the Catholic church, you might not automatically think that there would be a ton of nude beaches in Italy. But even though the Catholic homebase is in the country, and even though the vast majority of Italians self-identify as Catholics, they are also Europeans - and Europeans tend to have much more progressive views about sex and nudity than Americans do. So, while there may not be as many famous nude beaches in Italy as there are in other Mediterranean or European countries, there are definitely some.

In fact, there’s an association in Italy for naturists (which is what nudists seem to prefer to be called), and at least a couple of years ago the statistics were that more than 600,000 Italians were naturists. Prior to 2006, however, going nude on the beaches of Italy wasn’t technically legal. Sure, people did it, and they rarely faced any problems, but officials could have theoretically cracked down on it at any time.

It’s worth noting here that going totally naked on the beach is still considered different than just women going topless. Going topless is almost de rigeur on the beaches of Europe, and there isn’t a separate beach for topless sunbathers as there are often separate nude beaches. On most beaches in Italy, women can (and do) go topless, mixed in amongst women who keep both halves of their suits on. If you’re wondering whether going topless is okay, either ask someone or just pay attention to what other people are doing.

WhY do people Become Naturists

2009-05-22T09:54:00.002+01:00

I found this article yesterday - which is nice and fluffy about naturists

Why Do People Become Naturists?

There are probably many answers to this question, almost as many as there are nudists. Some like to refer to the fact that they were born that way. Yes, some even try it for the wrong reasons, but it quickly becomes evident that sex is not what it is about. If someone attempts to participate for this reason they are soon disappointed and leave on their own. Respectful and courteous behavior toward others is expected. Disrespectful behavior is not tolerated. Naturism is about freedom, enjoyment, and getting in touch with yourself and the real personality in others. At first it can be an exciting or even fearful experience simply due to the mental attitude or baggage we bring with us. The negatives quickly melt away to be replaced with a wonderful feeling of acceptance of yourself and others.

What a joy to skinny-dip,
Bare as one can be,
Water felt on all my skin
As it washes over me.
To feel warming rays all over,
Lying in the sun,
Remembering to rotate when
One side enough is done.

Naturist look like you and I and come from all walks of life. You will find it to be a relaxing lifestyle that is free of the daily stress we all experience. Naturist groups like http://www.naturistspace.org are looking for people who are open minded and want to enjoy the company of others of a like mind.

The simple bare necessities

2009-05-21T11:17:00.003+01:00

As reported today in the Irish press some beaches there are making the top naturist beaches lists. The simple bare necessities . . . can be found on Irish beaches. When you dream of the nicest beaches to lie scantily clad on absorbing some rays, Ireland would probably not even feature. Especially if you wanted to go topless, never mind completely nude. Well it seems we Irish are alone in thinking this because Hotels.com has named not one but two Irish beaches in its top 10 best nudist beaches in the world.

Hawk Cliff in Dalkey and the appropriately-named Inch Beach in Kerry are holding their own against heavy hitters in Spain, Florida and Greece.

So, if you fancy topping-up your all-over tan this summer it is worth checking out their website to see the latest deals. Just remember your sunblock.

Naturism In The News : Naturist Beach For Key West

2009-05-20T08:04:00.002+01:00

A poll for a naturist beach at Key West has shown that at least one segment of the Key West business community has spoken: Eighty percent of 225 tourism-based business owners surveyed say they support a clothing-optional beach in the Southernmost City. More specifically, of the supporters, 48 percent say "Key West needs a clothing-optional beach" and 31 percent say they "support the concept of a clothing-optional beach but only if it is located out of view."

Eleven percent of responders either were against or were leaning toward being against a clothing-optional beach, while the rest of the responders didn't care one way or the other.

Earlier this week, Key West Innkeeper's Association President Ian Whitney distributed the surveys to businesses and has since compiled and released the results. Those who were surveyed include the owners of guesthouses, retailers, restaurants and attractions.

"We think it's important to give our members the opportunity to share their opinions on whether or not to have a clothing-optional beach in Key West," Whitney said. "The survey results show that, while there are differences of opinion on this issue, there isn't much controversy."

Naturism In The News : Naked Cyclist In East Sussex

2009-05-18T09:45:00.002+01:00

As reported in last weeks Daily Telegraph - A naturist who liked to cycle along a seafront with only a small piece of fabric shielding his modesty has been ordered to desist by a district judge
Anthony Harris, 54, was twice stopped by police officers wearing nothing but the small piece of material on the Marina in St Leonards, East Sussex.

District Judge Roger Ede, sitting at Hastings magistrates' court, told Harris that he must not go for his coastal rides unless he covers up with at least a pair of swimming trunks. Judge Ede imposed a sexual offences prevention order banning Harris, of St Leonards, from appearing anywhere in public without trousers, short trousers or swimming trunks fully covering his genitals and buttocks.

The order, which is similar to an anti-social behaviour order, will last for five years.

Nigel Barry, Sussex Police's ASBO coordinator, said: "Obviously the sight of a nearly naked man cycling along the seafront, naturist or not, would be enough to potentially cause alarm or distress. "As such, the matter was referred to the Anti Social Behaviour Team and we decided that an application was just and proportionate. The District Judge agreed."

Well if nothing else - lets hope he had a comfortable saddle ....

Naturism In The News : UK - Nudist Disco

2009-05-03T19:41:00.001+01:00

The Sundays threw up this story today. Unwitting visitors to an historic Lancashire hall could be in for a big surprise later this year. For a huge band of naturists are to set up camp in the grounds of Parrox Hall, Preesall, near Preston, in September for the 'Nudefest' festival – and it is all with the blessing of its owner, a former Tory MP. Dr Harold Elletson, who was a former county councillor for Over Wyre.

He has given the thumbs-up for scores of caravan and tent-owning naturists to camp in the grounds of the old hall, which dates back to before the 1400s. Dr Elletson said the idea came after he was approached by a radio presenter who compered a music festival there last year and said it would be a good location for the Nudefest.

He added: "We will be very pleased if they turn up in large numbers, if it generates income.

World Nude Gardening Day

2009-05-02T15:54:00.002+01:00

Well believe it or not get ready for the Fifth Annual World Nude Gardening Day (WNGD)! People across the globe are encouraged, on Saturday, May 2, 2009 to tend their portion of the world's garden clothed as nature intended. Why garden naked? First of all, it's fun! Second only to swimming, gardening is at the top of the list of family-friendly activities people are most ready to consider doing nude. Moreover, our culture needs to move toward a healthy sense of both body acceptance and our relation to the natural environment.

Gardening naked is not only a simple joy, it reminds us--even if only for those few sunkissed minutes--that we can be honest with who we are as humans and as part of this planet.

"The body seems to feel beauty when exposed to it as it feels the campfire or sunshine, entering not by the eyes alone, but equally through all one's flesh like radiant heat, making a passionate ecstatic pleasure glow not explainable."

I love pottering about in our garden nude - as long as it is nice and sunny !!!! although I do give the roses a miss ... Julie Allure Naturist Massage

Naturism In The News : UK - Naturists lose their fight to go naked on the beaches

2009-05-01T08:49:00.001+01:00

As widely reported in the UK press in the last day or so. Britain's army of naturists find themselves battling on the sandy and shingled margins to protect a cherished way of life. They have issued a war cry – claiming they are suffering unlawful and discriminatory treatment – following news that Britain's longest-serving nudist beach in Corton, near Lowestoft, is to be shut because of coastal erosion. Waveney District Council confirmed yesterday that the area would be "de-designated" from November following a consultation.

The announcement that one of the last 10 remaining official naturist beaches is to disappear comes just days after nudists were urged to ignore warnings that they face prosecution should they continue to use a stretch of sand near Bridlington, East Yorkshire ,which has been a popular destination for sun clubs and naked bathers for decades.

Andrew Welch of British Naturism, which has 11,000 members and represents the interests of an estimated 1.5 million practising nudists, believes that what is essentially a healthy and harmless pastime is under attack from a culture which discriminates against them. He insists that anyone wishing to strip off in public is not doing anything wrong according to the law and that heavy-handed authorities are in the vanguard of a general crackdown on the pursuit.

Naturist Holidays : The Nude Cruise

2009-04-27T10:21:00.003+01:00

Nude Better Believe it - Naturist Cruises on the Rise An unusual kind of holiday is becoming particularly popular - although it's certainly not for the prudish. The nudist cruise has doubled in uptake over the last half-decade, with destinations such as Croatia, the Caribbean and even Alaska's freezing cold Glacier Bay among those on offer for those who wish to shed their inhibitions. Nudist cruse clients are said to be generally between 45 and 55, and naturally have to observe some time-honoured etiquette after removing their garments and settling into their trip.

Jim Bailey, of American-based Castaway Travel, which says it sold 3,000 places on nude cruises last year, told the Times: "Lots of my customers are British and sales to them have gone up by about 50 per cent from 2001 to 2006." Sherry Stafford Loibl of the Internaturally cruise provider told the newspaper that it doesn't take too long to become acclimatised. "Remember to look people in the eyes. Once you feel comfortable, you can look them up and down to see what they look like, just as you would if they were wearing clothes. It usually takes a day before someone is relaxed," she said.

I think I would much rather do one of the naturist charters around the Greek Islands !!!

Naturist Beaches In The UK : Winterton Dunes - Horsey - Norfolk

2009-04-26T10:12:00.002+01:00

More on naturist beaches in the UK. Winterton Dunes are located a few miles miles north of Great Yarmouth in Norfolk and cover a wide area between the Norfolk Broads and the coast. The dunes are a nature reserve. North of the dunes, naturists are also said to use a section of the beach adjacent to Horsey. A large area of dunes and clean, sandy beach with ample space for all and lots of scope for walking. Suitable for couples and singles and possibly families with children - but don't expect to go paddling nude. As with most beaches along the East Coast, an onshore wind from the North Sea can be a problem, so windbreaks are recommended. The Norfolk Broads provide an alternative attraction if the wind is too strong.

Please remember that this beach is unofficial. Keep to the dune area - or you may offend poeple. It is also a major RSPB reserve - on the beach is where the terns breed - so don't leave litter and take great care where you walk.

How to get there :From Great Yarmouth travel north on the A149 past Caister-on-Sea (ignore the turning for the A1064 at West Caister). About 1 mile further on, where the road turns sharply left, leave the A149 and continue north on the B1159 towards Winterton-on-Sea. This is two and half miles further on, after passing Newport and Hemsby.

At Winterton continue northward until the road turns inland at the church (worth a visit if you are interested in local history). At this point turn toward the sea (right), along the road beyond where it narrows and past a Spar shop. Eventually you will reach the car park. [£2 for the day].

Leaving the car walk east to the seashore and turn northwards [left]. Either cut down to the sea and walk along, or walk behind the dunes, for approximately 10-15 mins. Naturist use begins just beyond the point at which erosion has exposed a concrete base.

Alternatively, continuing north on the B1159 will bring you to the village of Horsey. From the car park at Horsey Nature Reserve, you can gain access to the beach and walk south along the disused railway line until it turns inland, at which point you should be close to the unofficial naturist beach.

Naturist Holidays : Sorobon Beach Bonaire, Caribbean

2009-04-25T12:27:00.001+01:00

Unspoiled, unhurried, unclothed, unforgettable – the ultimate Caribbean hideaway! Sorobon Beach resort is a delightful naturist retreat on the natural paradise of Bonaire Island in the Netherlands Antilles. With just 30 nicely appointed chalets under Dutch ownership and management, the atmosphere is very friendly and relaxed. Apart from the 17 staff, the Sorobon family also includes numerous sugarbirds (put a bowl of sugary water on your terrace and make firm friends with them) and a wonderful family of iguanas.Situated on its own white sandy beach and protected by a vibrant coral reef full of colourful sealife, Sorobon Beach resort is located in the south east corner of Bonaire.

The island itself, on the Netherlands Antilles islands, lies 50 miles north of Venezuela, outside the hurricane belt. Trade winds temper the heat and the water temperature is a delicious 27°. The whole island is surrounded by coral reefs making it a diver's paradise. The beauty of the colourful underwater world is absolutely breathtaking with over 350 species of fish, though strictly enforced local laws protect these natural wonders; no anchoring, no spearfishing, even touching the coral is forbidden.

The Sorobon Beach Resort fronts its private 200-yard section of the Sorobon Beach. It faces a shallow tropical lagoon (Cai Lac) backed by mangroves and protected by a coral reef half a mile out. Conch shells are part of the scenery. Two rafts are moored in the bay for rests during snorkelling sessions or just for sunbathing and they are always occupied: when there are no humans about, the crabs take advantage! Plenty of shelters made of palm tree branches are equipped with sunloungers. A shower (cold) is nearby. The beach is spotless. Sorobon Beach Resort in Bonaire offers a unique opportunity for nude living, with chalets just yards from the Caribbean waters on one of the most unspoilt islands in the world. Although some people may choose to dress in the evening, Sorobon Beach is a completely clothes-free environment, so, instead of clothes, pack your suitcase with books and relax.

Sounds just like paradise !!!!!!

Naturst Massage - A Pain In The Back

2009-04-24T09:00:00.002+01:00

I came across this article posted in the American press talking about back pain and massage. Eighty percent of us have suffered from back pain at one point or another, and anyone who has knows how tough it can be to treat. Consumer Reports just surveyed more than 14,000 people who've suffered from lower-back pain to find out which treatments are the most helpful. The survey shows that many people who visited a chiropractor were happy with the results. Almost 60 percent of those who tried chiropractic manipulation said it helped a lot. And about the same percentage of people were highly satisfied with their chiropractor.

Also rated very helpful in the survey were other hands-on therapies, such as massage as well as physical therapy. And those treatments were rated more helpful than over-the-counter or even prescription medication. If nothing is working to relieve your pain, surgery is a consideration. But how happy you are with the results will probably depend on your diagnosis. And always proceed with caution. More than 50 percent of respondents reported a problem with recovery from surgery, for example, finding it longer and more painful than they had expected. And 16 percent said their back pain didn't improve at all after surgery.

Finally, 44 percent of those surveyed found exercise helpful, making it the highest-rated self-help treatment.

"this is really no surprise to me - massage is really good in helping to heal a bad pain or to ease back pain."

Naturism In The News : Entertainment

2009-04-21T10:29:00.002+01:00

I spotted this article in the press and thought this bit of nude news was quite funny, the headline reads Richard Branson Invents New Sport: Kite Surfing With Naked Lady. Draping himself with naked ladies is all in a day's work for Virgin founder Richard Branson. For a photoshoot on Necker Island, his private paradise in -- where else? -- the British Virgin Islands, Branson posed kite surfing while draped with model Denni Parkinson. What's amazing is that he still seems to be focused on the surfing bit. Branson also hit the headlines recently when he reported clashed with Virgin-sponsored Formula 1 driver Jenson Button over his paying too much attention to Button's girlfriend

We were unable to figure out exactly why Branson is posing with a naked girl, but the lesson here is clear: Do your nudist outdoor activities with your significant other, not away from him or her. Branson oughta join British Naturism, a club for people who like being outdoors in the altogether with activities like a paddleboat trip in Norfolk, a July 4 fun run and of course several beach days. Imagine a crowd of seacombers wearing a Virgin towel and a smile...

Only a so called celebrity could get away with this ... lol

Natursit Holiday Destinations : Croatia

2009-04-20T16:32:00.003+01:00

Croatian Adriatic coast is among the friendliest naturist destinations of the world. That doesn't surprise when you know that the first naturist beach was opened on Paradise Beach on the island of Rab in 1934. Besides more than 30 official naturist resorts and beaches there are numerous other unofficial naturist or clothing optional beaches or coves. With more than 1000 islands Croatia is waiting for you to discover. Today Croatia is offering wide range of naturist facilities: beaches, camping, hotels, apartment and bungalow villages.

There are more than 20 official naturist resorts that spread on 8.220.000 sq. meters. Naturist resorts offer 46.100 camping units, 5.300 beds in apartments, bungalows or hotels. In addition to that, official naturist beaches (outside of naturist resorts) offer a place under the sun for 20.000 sunbathers. Except of official naturist resorts and beaches, there are also many so called free beaches.

Those are unofficial naturist beaches, sometimes controlled and maintained by local tourist authorities and sometimes not, that can be found everywhere on the coast.
Naturist beaches in Croatia are marked as "FKK". This is abbreviation for German word "Freikörperkultur" (Free Body Culture). The FKK sign is ubiquitous all along the Croatian coast.

Naturist Beaches In The UK : Morfa Dyffryn in Gwynedd Wales

2009-04-19T10:06:00.002+01:00

Morfa Dyffryn in Gwynedd, Wales, on the west coast of Wales, in Snowdonia National Park was made an official naturist beach in the 21st century but it has been a nude beach by custom since the 1930s. The beach, between Barmouth and Harlech, is popular with naturist bathers from all over Britain for its unspoiled expanse of coast and its clean but coldwater. This is a very large, flat, sandy beach backed by dunes that are part of the national park nature reserve. Nearly a mile is devoted to nude bathing. Although popular with nudists from all over the world, the size of this beach means visitors can find plenty of space and privacy.

Morfa Dyffryn Nude Beach Essentials

Facilities: The beach as no facilities though there are toilets near the parking at the southern approach to the nude beach.

Warnings: The water here achieves the highest European standards for bathing, but it can be very cold. And, even in warm weather, cold breezes are possible so it's advisable to bring along a wind break of some kind.

Getting there From the south, leave the A 470 at Llanelltyd to join the A496 coast road. After the village of Tal-y-bont look for a sign that says Traeth - the Welsh word for beach - and follow a lane to a car park near the beach. Take the boardwalk through the dunes. The nude beach is signposted. It is also possible to walk, about two miles, from Dyffryn Ardudwy station on the Welsh coastal rail line from Barmouth.

Hmmm- this sounds just a little bit too chilly for me ... :O)

Follow the path from the Forestry Commission car park which leads on to the (textile) beach. Once on the beach, turn right and head south , passing a blue and yellow cylinder with a number 4 on it. (July 2001 - the blue and yellow buoy is reported to be "now quite tatty and faded.. more like a plastic oil drum filled with sand). The (unofficial) naturist section is a short way beyond. Naturist use has also been reported to the left (north) of the access point.

Naturist Beaches In Ireland : Clonakilty Bay - Munster

2009-04-16T13:17:00.002+01:00

There are a number of quiet and secluded coves on the eastern and western sides of Clonakilty Bay which are very suitable for naturism. DUNOWEN also called DUNEEN ends at a rocky cliff, so there are very few passers by. Further out are DUNNY COVE and SANDS COVE. Further west towards Glandore lies the rocky PRISON COVE. On the eastern side there is a suitable cove near the village of RING.

Turn right over the bridge in the village and follow the road along the coast with Inchadoney island across the channel on the right. After a while the road turns inland and uphill. Half way up this hill is a narrow lane on your right which leads almost to a sheltered rocky cove. Park and take the footpath leading around to the left and down.

Further along this hilly road is a sign for SIMON'S COVE which is along the headland to South Ring where a small lane leads to the sea. The Cove is protected by a reef but can be thick with stringy seaweed. The shores of Roaring Water Bay past Lough Hyne, which is past Skibereen, and the Beara peninsula have many deserted beaches.

Modern History Of Naturism In France

2009-04-15T13:08:00.001+01:00

In the years 1950, France counted less than 5 naturist centers and camp-site. In 2006, they are more than 50 of all sizes, from the small family center accomodating a few tens of people to the great centers of edge of sea which receive several thousands of people as in the Cape d'Agde. The French Federation of naturism (FFN) gathers 150 clubs with the last census of April 2006.

The naturist presence strongest is on the Aquitanian littoral: currently, there is on the Côte d’ArgentThe naturist presence strongest is on the Aquitanian littoral: currently, there is on the Money Coast as many naturist bathers bathers in shirts. First, and the vastest naturist centers are on this part of the Atlantique coast: Montalivet (common of Vendays-Montalivet), Euronat (commune of Grayan-and-l'Hôpital), Arnaoutchot (commune of Vielle-Saint-Girons), the Jenny (common of Porge).

The littoral of Languedoc-Roussillon knows also a strong naturist presence, in particular around Port Leucate (Aude) and Cape d'Agde (Herault).

No the naturist center on the Côte d’Azur, where natural landscape s'est rarefied under the concrete, but there are some small centers in l'arrière-country (Puget-Théniers) and of vaster on the coasts of Corsica. There are still some naturist beaches, in particular in the Cape Taillat (commune of Ramatuelle, in the Var), thanks to the Academy of the littoral which saved this sector. It should be noted that the Marseilles creeks are attended by the naturists since 1929.

The famous one and splendid Île du Levant has a naturist village, Héliopolis, opened with all the public ones. In Héliopolis, the edge of the sea must imperatively remain free and accessible to all, no privatization of the littoral band is accepted. In XXI century, this naturist principle and ecologist remain always in force there, contrasting with the invading concrete of the littoral of the Côte d'Azur. The naturist joint owners d'Héliopolis have "cold" with their expenses a vast woodland, where any construction is prohibited, which constitutes a natural reserve open to the public.

Years 2000 see emerging the unauthorized practice of the naked hike. The simple one strolls in forest with more sporting excursions in mountainous or broken zones, it was to combine the feeling of wellbeing caused by nudity with discovered corners of nature. C'est thus a wild form of naturism which develops out of the authorized centers, even if those can be used as lodging place or starting point.

All very interesting stuff!!!

Head In A Spin

2009-04-14T09:03:00.003+01:00

Hello there, just a quickto see if all you naturists out there had a great Easter break. It is a real shame that the weather was so really mixed. We did manage to see some sunshine yesterday here on the South Coast - but by then it was far to late to jump in the car and drive down to Studland. Which is a real shame as I am guessing it was lovely over there. Still that is the great British weather for you - at least it did not snow (well not yet anyway)!!

Back to work for me today as I am sure it is for a lot of you. Still it is a short week and only four days till the weekend. I still have a few appointments left for this week so if the rigours of the Easter break and half term have got your head in a spin - drop me a text.

See some of you very soon.

Naturist Beaches In The UK : Rhossili Bay - Gower Peninsula - South Wales

2009-04-13T14:40:00.002+01:00

This is one of the most popular naturist beaches in Wales. Rhossili Bay is located on the western end of the Gower peninsula, west of Swansea in South Wales. Rhossili beach has 3 miles or so of sand and, while the southern end gets very busy, naturists use the northern part. The Gower my be reached from the eastbound M4 via Swansea and the A4118 . For Rhosilli, turn right on to the B4247 just beyond Knelston. Whitford Burrows are located to the north and you should aim to get to Llanmadoc - via the A411 / B4271 or alternatively by way of the B4295 from Gowerton.

Once at Llanmadoc, park and walk along a track leading in a NW direction to the coast. Follow the path past 'Cwm Ivy Farm' downhill and just before you reach the beach turn right in front of a wooded area and follow the path which takes you past a cottage and parallel to the beach. After about 20 minutes walk, a path turns left down to the sea - reaching the beach by way of the dunes.

Alternatively, head towards the village of Llangennith and from there drive north-west towards Broughton Burrows and Llangennith Burrows. Take the public footpath through the dunes to the beach and then turn left (i.e. south) to find a secluded spot.

The area used by naturists is at northern end of the bay the area of dunes about 700 yards south of Spaniard Rock and Burry Holms Island.

What Is Naturism ?

2009-04-12T13:37:00.000+01:00

Ask 50 people and you get 50 different answers. Whilst there is no official definition, it could be said: "Naturism is a way of life in harmony with nature, expressed by communal nudity with the aim of furthering the respect of oneself, of others and that of the environment." Others describe naturism as "a sensible approach to wearing clothes".

Naturists come in all shapes and sizes and of all ages – from the newly-born to those over 80. Many of us are interested in sports or outdoor living but others prefer just to relax. We are labourers, managers, clerks, civil servants, artists, farmers, doctors, etc.: we represent all walks of life. By undressing, you strip yourself of any false attitudes and of any outward signs of your social position in daily life. Without clothes, the employee is on the same level as the boss, and for many this turns out to be one of the most beneficial elements of Naturism.

Naturists are also more relaxed about the human body. We are more aware than others that human beings are born with soft skin which wrinkles later in life, that some are fat, others thin, some are tall, others short; having been struck by illness or accident, some remain scarred for life – we are simply men and women. Naturists don’t worry about how they are made – they prefer to let their true personality radiate.

Naturist Beaches In The UK : Holkham Beach

2009-04-11T12:30:00.001+01:00

At low tide the beach is a long wide expanse of golden sand, and at high tide the beach gets well washed. The beach is patrolled by English Nature wardens who deter undesirables but apart from a friendly "Hello" leave the genuine naturists alone.

The beach is on a very exposed coast, since the next land north is the Arctic circle so do try to carry that wind breaker - the car is a two mile round trip walk if you find you have left anything behind. Even paradise has its problems.

On the A149 coast road at Holkham Hall turn off and park on Lady Ann Road, paying a fee to the Holkham estate. Here you are faced with a choice either head towards the beach and turn left and walk for about a mile along the sand or walk through the woods.

On a hot sunny day this can be the best decision, the only bad news is that you must be dressed but it is a great walk all the same, and the beach is well worth any effort.

Happy Easter To All My Customers

2009-04-10T10:33:00.003+01:00

Hello there, just a quick note to wish all my customers a very happy Easter. What a shame the weather is so dreadful today here on the south coast. There is no real chance of getting to a naturist beach today and enjoying any sunshine. Still we have until Monday and who knows ~ stranger things have happened.

I am back at work on Tuesday and I do not have too many appointments left for next week. So if the half term really is getting you down and you want a massage please book sooner rather than later.

Just drop me a text.

Hope to see some of you real soon.

Naturist Beaches In The UK : Brighton East Beach

2009-04-09T11:09:00.002+01:00

This has to be one of the UK's most famous official naturist beaches and indeed Britain's most accessible naturist beach. It is great because it is well within walking distance of central Brighton.

The usual facilities are within easy reach of the beach because of it central location but be careful as the beach shelves steeply and is of made up of pebbles.

The beach is on the main beach area, and is easily found. It is between Peter Pan's Playground and the Marina, Both Duke's (Lido) Beach and the Palace Pier are to its west side. Buses 7, 47 A, 52A, 57, 71 2, 726 link the Marine Parade to the station and Volk's Electric Railway runs along the promenade during the summer and has stations at the Aquarium, Banjo Groyne and the Marina.

I really like this beach and its location really is second to none.

Naturist Beaches In The UK : Budleigh Salterton (West End)

2009-04-08T08:28:00.001+01:00

Probably the most public naturist beach in Devon and certainly one of the easiest to reach. Backed by red sandstone cliffs, it is a beautiful setting. A very popular naturist beach, so if you want to avoid the crowds, walk further down the beach. The beach consists of large pebbles which bank steeply into the sea. These are not easy to walk on and uncomfortable, so good footwear and maybe some form of cushioning/air bed to lay on is a good idea.

Very small pockets of sand can appear at low tide. Due to the redness of the cliffs and sand under the pebbles, the water is usually not as clear as Slapton beach further south in Devon.

Mostly elderly visitors out of season, but in July and August there can be a real mixture of ages - families, singles, couples.

Parking in Budleigh can be difficult during peak season, so arrive early if you can. Bear in mind that the naturist beach is to the right as you are looking out to sea, so you may want to try and park at the western end of town.

As the cliffs start there is a beach cafe (ideal for refreshments) then about 300m along the beach there is an official sign saying clothing optional from this point. In reality the naturists start some way before this sign, maybe about 150-200m from the cafe. There have been some problems with the local authorities over this, however naturists remain defiant and the police did receive quite a grilling over their 'interference'. Though to avoid potential problems it is advisable not to be nude until after the official sign.

The nice thing about this beach is just how easy it is to get to ... lets hope we just getsome sunshine this summer - Julie Allure massage

Naturist Beaches In The UK : Studland Dorset

2009-04-07T13:42:00.002+01:00

Studland beach is located on the north-eastern tip of the part of Dorset known as the 'Isle of Purbeck', separated from Bournemouth by the entrance to Poole harbour. Easily the best-known naturist beach in the UK, it has also been voted the sixth-best beach in Britain.

The estate which owns the beach and surrounding heathland nature reserve was privately owned but has now passed into the hands of the National Trust . Studland is, for most of its length, a traditional textile beach. However, naturists have traditionally used the northernmost part, together with the nearby dunes. In recent years there has been some friction between some naturists and the NT because the latter has placed restrictions on the area used by naturists. On the positive side, nude use of the part of the beach is now "offically" sanctioned by the Trust.

There are two main ways of getting to Studland by car:
From the Purbeck (west) direction take the A351 from Wareham, turning left on to the B351 for Studland before reaching Corfe Castle. In Studland drive through the village and follow signs to the Studland Beach car park. Now walk north along the beach or tracks in the dunes until you reach the nude section which is marked by signposts on the beach and in the dunes.

From the Bournemouth (east) direction, a ferry runs from Sandbanks across the entrance to Poole harbour to the northern tip of Studland Heath. The distance is short, but at peak times there can be a long queue for the ferry. Shortly beyond the ferry there is an NT paying car park From here you walk east and then south along the beach past Shell Bay. Many visitors appear to park along the verge of Ferry Road - if you do, please take care not to obstruct the road. Alternatively, walk along the road to "Fire Point 6" and then through the nature reserve to the beach.

This really is one of the most beautiful beaches in the UK.

Who Are Naturists?

2009-04-06T10:44:00.001+01:00

Anyone can be a naturist. Your background, age, shape, race, creed and colour are irrelevant when it comes to enjoying the freedom of naturism, which is why it attracts people from all walks of life.

Naturists practise social nudity, aimed at encouraging self respect, respect for others and the environment. We only enjoy clothes-free activities in the right environment, among like-minded naturists, when it is warm enough.

Naturism In The News : Society

2009-04-05T08:36:00.003+01:00

As reported in the UK National press recently.

A RELAXED attitude to nudity could REDUCE the number of teen pregnancies, nudists said today.

British Naturism said the prudish attitude of Brits could be fuelling the rise in the number of teen mums.

Britain has the highest teenage pregnancy rate in Europe. Countries not so embarrassed about being seen in the buff have lower rates of school-age parents, said the group.

“Anyone who advocates prudery should be required to stand in front of a group of pregnant teenagers and explain why it is that, in countries such as Denmark or the Netherlands, most of them would not be pregnant,” the group argues.

The organisation also said that Brits treat breastfeeding in public as "dirty and shameful", and get embarrassed at the sight of a mum nursing her baby. They even drew parallels between our attitudes towards the body and the number of eating disorders.

Andrew Welch, commercial manager of British Naturism, said: "Governments, authority figures and social and community leaders should accept that the human body is not something to be ashamed of or embarrassed about, and that being more open about it would benefit society.

My thoughts on the the above are- "It is a bit of a sensationalist headline BUT the truth is that the underlining problem is really education and awareness"

Swedish Massage - The Origins

2009-04-04T16:39:00.000+01:00

Massage as we know it today started to emerge in the 18th century, and is often referred to as Swedish massage as much of it comes from the work of Per Henrik Ling (1776-1839).

Ling completed some of his study in China, and as a result developed massage techniques he called effleurage, petrissage, and tapotement (aka percussion).

The Beginings Of Massage

2009-04-04T16:34:00.001+01:00

Massage may be the oldest and simplest form of medical care. Egyptian tomb paintings show people being massaged. In Eastern cultures, massage has been practiced continually since ancient times. A Chinese book from 2,700 B.C., The Yellow Emperor's Classic of Internal Medicine, recommends 'breathing exercises, massage of skin and flesh, and exercises of hands and feet" as the appropriate treatment for -complete paralysis, chills, and fever."

It was one of the principal method of relieving pain for Greek and Roman physicians. Julius Caesar was said to have been given a daily massage to treat neuralgia. "

The Physician Must Be Experienced In Many Things," wrote Hippocrates, the father of Western medicine, in the 5th century B. C., "but assuredly in rubbing.. . for rubbing can bind a joint that is too loose, and loosen a joint that is too rigid."

Naturism In The News : UK - Couple Walk For Charity

2009-04-04T16:28:00.002+01:00

A naturist couple have begun a naked 220-mile walk from London to Birmingham for charity.

Mark Stephenson and Fiona Lincoln embarked on their naked expedition from Greenwich on Sunday. They plan to complete their journey by Friday to attend the Ordnance Survey Outdoor Show in Birmingham.

As they pass Tower Bridge, Houses of Parliament, Windsor Castle and Oxfordshire, the pair hope to raise awareness for the Clothes For A Cause appeal.

Stephenson and Lincoln, who are from Strood in Kent, say they plan to walk the entire distance in only hiking boots, socks and a rucksack.

Stephenson said: “As naturists we are completely comfortable in our own skin and will only cover up in adverse weather conditions, or if we are asked to do so when passing through populated sections of the hike.”

Good luck to them - I hope their walk to trouble free and they raise some cash and awareness.

A NATURIST plans to open Germany's first nude hotel in the Black Forest where clothes are banned and all guests must be naked at all times.

Frieder Haferkorn, the entrepreneur behind the venture, says he wants to turn a conventional hotel into a haven for naturists.

Meanwhile two villages in the Harz mountain region are also reportedly looking into designating some of their walking paths in the local forests as nudist routes.

What Does Massage Do For You ?

2009-04-04T13:40:00.001+01:00

Gentle massage affects the nervous system through nerve endings in the skin, stimulating the release of endorphins, the body's natural 'feel good' chemicals, to help induce relaxation and a sense of well-being, to relieve pain and reduce levels of stress chemicals such as cortisol and noradrenaline.

It helps reverse the damaging effects of stress by slowing heart rate, respiration and metabolism and lowering raised blood pressure. Stronger massage stimulates blood circulation to improve the supply of oxygen and nutrients to body tissues and helps the lymphatic system to flush away waste products. It eases tense and knotted muscles and stiff joints, improving mobility and flexibility.
