Hip Young Things

Nudity. For some people, the thought of being seeing without their clothing is mortifying. And the thought of seeing others nude, strangers nude is even more so…some even consider it outrageous. But for many people the idea is a natural one, after all everyone alive entered this world first and foremost, naked. In the beginning of the 1950′s, public beaches wherein in clothing was considered optional started to become popular, started to become the ‘norm’ on the beaches of France and all throughout the Mediterranean. Over time, other countries have taken up suit, or dropped the suit rather, in favor of the a more natural way to enjoy the outdoors and get the added bonus of the all-over body tan without unsightly tan lines. Beaches on Crete and in the Caribbean followed the lead of France soon after. Along the Cote d’Azur region in France, optional clothing is no longer just restricted to the beach. Cap d’Agde is an area where people shop, go to restaurants, to the bank … all the daily requirements and activities of life, are all done in the nude. It’s no wonder this city has earned the nickname of quite simply ‘Naked City’.

From Gunnison Beach in New Jersey to Blacks Beach in Southern California to Morfa Dyffryn in North Wales, people are flocking to the beaches to shed their clothes, all of them. Weather permitting, there are even nude camp grounds and hiking trails in the Kenai Penninsula in Alaska and elsewhere throughout state. Nude hikers and campers are forewarned about being so vulnerable in this particular wilderness as the bear tends to be the top of the food chain out there.

However, some of the world’s most beautiful beaches are to be found in the Islands of the Balearic Archipelago. These islands are in the Mediterranean Sea away from the Mainland. These beaches are known for their white sand, clear water and clean air. There are 4 islands with some being less crowded and developed than the others. Those a bit shy about being nude may enjoy the the seclusion of the unpopulated islands of Formentera or Minorca. Two of Spain’s most secluded and private beaches are in Minorca, but the most private spots are on the island of Formentera, the Playa de Mitjorn has become the popular spot in Spain for relaxing and enjoying nature. Ibiza has gotten the reputation for being a party destination, however as far as beautiful sand, nude beaches, resorts and many a 5 star hotel Ibiza has become quite popular as well, for relaxing and enjoying nature, completley au naturale.
