Here’s a selection of top nude resorts in the Caribbean. . . The Natural, Curacao - While some resorts have the distinction of being the only clothing-optional property on the island, The Natural can broaden that boast with its claim to being the only au naturel resort on the ABC islands of Aruba, Bonaire and Curacao.  The Natural on Curacao welcomes all types: couples, singles and GLBT guests – the only restriction is a minimum age of 16 years old.  Unlike some naturist resorts, guests don’t have to shed their clothes; they have the option of staying covered up, even if they’re outnumbered.  The Natural makes no pretenses of being five-star and guestrooms and amenities are on the modest side.  The big selling point is the resort’s laidback, accepting ambience.” - Mark Rogers, http://experience.usatoday.com/caribbean/best-of-caribbean/caribbean-in-the-buff-top-nude-resorts/9879267/

“When I became a nudist 20 years ago, I definitely had body issues as I was always about 30-pounds overweight.  My first visit to a nudist park changed my perspective.  I realized that no matter how ‘big’ or ‘small’ I was, there was always someone thinner or heavier.  I suddenly felt much more comfortable with my body.  Now I am always the first to disrobe and the last to get dressed. – Helen, http://femalenaturist.blogspot.com/search/label/Nude%20Recreation%20From%20A%20Woman%27s%20Perspective

“Caribbean in the buff: Don’t miss these nude excursions . . . The Mak Nuk naturist condo community near Tulum is a newcomer to the clothing-optional scene in Mexico and they have some new ideas for bare-bottom adventurers.  These include a trip to a jungle cenote for some skinny dipping.  Cenotes are roughly circular sinkholes filled with spring water.  The water is cool — a constant 75 degrees year-round — and gin clear.  There’s a rope swing and plenty of screening foliage around the rim.” - –Steve Blount, http://experience.usatoday.com/caribbean/best-of-caribbean/nude-adventures-in-the-caribbean/11101521/


“Many people refuse to go nude because they feel that their height, weight, build, features, etc. are unacceptable.  There is no need to feel that you must conform to a standard of beauty or acceptability, especially one you had no part in creating.  Naturists come in all shapes, sizes, colors, ages, and beliefs.  Naturists have even undergone surgeries, mastectomies, etc., and have the scars to prove it (many have said that naturism helped them further accept these scars).  In naturism, there is no ideal of the perfect body other than yourself.  If you can accept yourself for what you are, you will have no problem overcoming your perceived imperfections.” – Jessica. http://femalenaturist.blogspot.com/search/label/Young%20Female%20Nudists

“Our naked bodies, within naturism, become a matter of fact ‘normality’, with all mystique removed . . . it seems that the adolescent male, through naturism, has much of his curiosity answered in grown up understanding what an adult or adolescent female looks like naked. . . this leads to a greater sense of respect for females.  People growing up naturist appear to have a much deeper sense of respect for each other than they do growing up textile.” – Ella, https://slfkk.wordpress.com/

“I will start by talking about my personal embarrassments and one of my favorite places — the Niagara YMCA (Young ‘Men’s’ Christian Association). . . most of us swam in the nude. . . I’d shower and enter the pool for my laps. . . My routine was to run into the mostly empty pool room and immediately dive from the diving board and into the pool to immediately overcome the shock of the temperature change.  Then I would do my laps.  Thusly, I raced in to do what I always did on that particular Wednesday . . . I opened the door and ran out onto the diving board.  Despite the rough surface of the diving board, I slid nearly to the end of it before coming to a complete stop, nearly falling into the water before I turned, horrified, and raced back into the sanctity of the men’s shower room.  There was a different atmosphere in the pool that day.  Usually there were just a couple of nude swimmers taking their laps or lounging in the Jacuzzi; but this time, the room was unusually filled with both color and noise.  There were blues, yellows, greens, reds, pinks and purple one-piece and two-piece bathing suits, both in and out of the water.  The underlying noise consisted of the bass laughter of men and boys - while the shrilling voices of soprano mothers, and the alto shrieks of their little girls echoed and amplified off the room’s tiled walls.  It was Family Night at the ‘Y,’ and there I had stood on the diving board, as the saying goes, as naked as a jay bird. . . That was the most embarrassing moment of my life and it took me months before I returned to the Y.  But I did return, and always with a pair of swimming trucks.” – Ken Hamilton, Niagara Gazette

“I agree that we come to know ourselves a bit better through seeing ourselves in photos, whether nude or clothed.  Personally, I share pictures of myself naked because I feel it’s an opportunity to ‘put my money where my mouth is.’  If I preach the belief that the natural human body is nothing to be ashamed of (and I do), then how can I justify treating my nude images differently from how I would treat pictures of myself fully dressed?  I believe that glutting the internet with images of non-sexual, non-idealized, nudity is a way to normalize both seeing others naked and allowing ourselves to be seen.” – Andy, http://rglongpre.ca/naturistlens/2017/01/02/selfies-nourishment-for-the-naked-soul/

 “. . . change rarely happens swiftly, particularly in an area such as nudism or naturism. . . that lack of forcing the lifestyle comes part of the reason why the naturist movement will be slow to be accepted.  I’ve found naturists to be among some of the most laid back and relaxed people I’ve ever met. . . And because of that laid back, relaxed approach, there probably isn’t the forceful push to promote the lifestyle that might get things rolling.  In an ironic counterbalance, the laid back approach to everything adopted by naturists could well be the reason that naturism isn’t promoted as much as it could be.  So to those who wait, be patient.  Like the proverbial snowball down a hill, naturism and nudism will gather momentum and grow larger.  It’s just a matter of being patient and living life as best as can be in the interim.” - https://beunmasked.org/2016/08/27/to-those-who-wait/

QUOTES 11/24/2018

“I was reading about Naturism as it arose as a philosophical movement in 19th century Germany and part of the background was that German naturism claimed communal nudity had a sexually liberating element about it and that was ok and not to be shamed.  Not that naturists were swingers or ogling each other, it was promoted as a safe and healthy family activity but when it was exported to Britain, who were notably more conservative in culture there began a campaign to strip it of any association with sexuality and etiquette was created for hiding accidental erections and such which were formerly just accepted as a normal bodily reaction to be ignored.” – Daisyboob, https://www.reddit.com/r/nudism/comments/5kff24/nudism_needs_to_burn_itself_and_rebuild/

“’I’m 59 years old—I am not going to a nude beach.’  The . . . surprise was the variety of people present.  On the whole beach, I could see only one supermodel-type, and the rest were just regular people with regular bodies, from their early twenties up in to their seventies.  The majority were middle aged.  Some people had tattoos, but most seemed pretty vanilla.  This was not a beach full of wild, sex-crazed swingers or perfectly toned and tanned workout goddesses—these were just normal people, enjoying the sun, the waves, and the sand, just without bathing suits.  So I joined them. . . . . . The longer I spent on that sunny judgment-free afternoon, the more I felt light, free, and relaxed.  I even chatted, still completely bare, with fellow sunbathers and a cute park ranger.  No one else seemed interested about their bodies or mine, it was all about feeling free of the stigma of body image and enjoying the ocean, sun, and the wildlife. . . I was so sure that I never wanted to visit a nude beach before I tried it, but now feel like I never want to go back to a non-nude beach again. Allowing myself to be so vulnerable empowered me.” – Sandra LaMorgese, http://www.huffingtonpost.com/sandra-lamorgese-phd/how-going-to-a-nude-beach_b_7801850.html

“All we need to do it take off our clothes and there we are.  Our naked best.” - http://zjuzdme.org/blog/2018/11/21/the-wealth-of-being-in-nudity/

“The problem about the word 'nudist' is that it puts all the focus on the visual aspect of being nude which is no doubt why it has more negative connotations, whereas it is more about simply being 'clothes free', natural, in a state of vulnerability, without the facade that we habitually carry around.  It feels good.  Being naked in nature is to me part of being a naturist . . . The trouble with labels is that they tend to pigeonhole us with other people's perceptions.  'Clothes free' is a good term as it appears to carry no connotations other than freedom from clothes, but can't be used in the same way.” – MartinM, http://www.naturist-corner.net/community/index.php?topic=9060.0;topicseen

As naturists, we are generally in our own skin rather than displaying our financial status and comparing designer labels with supermarket specials and becoming quite materialistic and competitive with each other. This creates a much nicer atmosphere, with no-one stressing out over what they can or can’t afford and no-one casting sly glances to see what someone else is wearing and hoping they don’t turn up in the same outfit. . . being naturist . . . seems to instantly make us all equal.  It removes this competitive nature so maybe it removes the stress of trying to look good and impressing people and you relax, safe in the knowledge that everyone accepts you as you are; in your own skin.” – Roni Fine, http://www.bn.org.uk/articles.php/_/information/about-naturism/roni-writes/is-it-really-true-that-clothes-maketh-the-man-r166

Looking around I saw several others with beach bags who were heading to the same beach. . . Finally, we set up our blankets and towels.  Erica was the first to get undressed.  She seemed to have no hesitation in getting out of her swimsuit! . . . As soon as the towels and blankets were spread out I decided to undress. . . After a short while we no longer thought of ourselves as being naked... it felt so natural that we just started walking around and later played Frisbee!  One guy in shorts came along and joined in our game.  He later sat and chatted with us. . . We decided to go for a walk along the water's edge.  The water was still pretty cold and only a very few people were actually in the lake but the sandy beach part was pretty crowded. . . Adrian, Chumsie, Erica and I spent the rest of the afternoon playing Frisbee, walking along the beach, munching on snacks and just having a relaxing time.  By late afternoon it had clouded over and it started getting a little cool so we started to pack up. . . We were back...two weeks later!  And we were there almost every weekend that summer.  We joined the nudist group and started going to their monthly swims. . . To anyone who is afraid to go to a nude beach I say GET OVER IT!  Just go.  You will have a great time and make some pretty cool friends!” – Karen, http://iyns.net/stories.html

“. . . up in somewhat chillier Canada, the pacifist, vegetarian sect of Doukhobors (spirit warriors of Christ), refugees fleeing their Russian homeland, where they had been championed by Leo Tolstoy, who financed their flight to America – protested against the materialism of the 20th century with mass naked events.  The Canadian government responded by making public nudity a criminal act.  Up to 300 Doukhobors were arrested and given three-year prison sentences.  Their continuing protests in the 1960s inspired Pete Seeger to sing their praises.  They found further activist expression when John Lennon and Yoko Ono went naked on the cover of their Two Virgins album (1968). The hippies’ disavowal of clothes at Woodstock and other festivals drew a direct, naked line back to the 19th-century utopians and beyond.  It was the ultimate expression against an age whose hardware was geared up towards apocalypse.  What better way to diffuse that corruption of power than by stripping it away, physically and spiritually, to the only thing we really own: our bodies.” - Philip Hoare, http://www.theguardian.com/commentisfree/2015/sep/04/nudity-isnt-indecent-british-tradition-naked-rambler?CMP=twt_gu

Those are all good reasons, great reasons, to take off your clothes and go naked.  But you don’t need to be a social naturist to do that.  If the only reason you are doing it is because you like to be naked, you don’t need to go to anywhere special.  You don’t need to travel far and spend money going to a club or a swim or a beach.  You can just leave your clothes off at home and live your life clothes-free and be as comfortable as you like. But we naturists don’t just leave it at home. . . we choose to socialize together specifically in places where we can take off our clothes . . .” - https://getnakedgetawesome.wordpress.com/2013/09/04/naturists-why-are-we-social-naked-animals/

“I was fresh out of college in early 70's but had not lived the 'flower child' life here in conservative Midwest.  But a college field trip to the southwest gave me my first chance to let loose. . . in a nice cool creek down in the Grand Canyon of Arizona.  Cool water was so refreshing after uphill hike with heavy backpacks.  There were a couple hesitant girls who kept t-shirts and undies on, but that didn't stop them from going in the water to frolic with all the rest of us nudies.  You could see from the look in their eyes that they really envied us being naked, but something still kept them from going for it, despite all the encouragement we shouted at them. . . The longer we were naked, the more at ease all were.  Women stopped trying to hold a hand over their breasts or pubic areas, and . . . we all found the comfort of warm rocks to lay out and sun-dry.  Our hike out and return trip was nothing like that day naked in the water.  I have no idea how many others were won over, but I certainly was sure I'd find myself naked and in the sun soon again.  Yearly return trips for me for a decade down to the canyon were scheduled each summer.  Spent every trip finding new waterfalls and pools to play naked in, and I always managed to fine another 'noob' somewhere along the trail to convince to come along on my side trips to 'find the freedom' too.” – Mark, Illinois, http://aanr.com/first-time-nudist-experience#content

 [17 Ideas for 2016 nudist resolutions]  “Book weekends and short holidays in naturists resorts, camp sites, and clubs, Prioritize all holidays with naturism in mind, Hang a ‘clothing optional’ sign at your door, Invite your neighbor and friends to clothing optional meet-ups, Throw all your swimsuits so you’ll need to go exclusively to nude beaches, Look for the nearest naked hiking group and join them, If you are used to hike in nature alone or with friends, drop your clothes as soon as it becomes possible, Tell ALL your friends you are naturist, Go for a nude cruise, Do not dress when you wake up on Saturday morning so you can stay naked the whole week-end, Join your local naturist club and take some responsibilities in the executive committee, When at friends’, ask for permission to get naked, Move to a nudist community, Undress as soon as you come back from work, exclusively living naked at home, Participate in as many WNBR as possible and any other public demonstration where nudity is allowed, Say ‘No’ to clothed activities, Just do not dress when and where you do not need to.” – https://nuetheureux.wordpress.com/2016/01/07/my-17-ideas-for-a-naturist-2016/
