Calgary Nude Recreation

Innovation and new ideas often come from non-landed clubs. The lack of a permanent facility means that they must look for new activities in non-traditional places. They also tend to be more urban and appeal to younger people. In our discussion with Calgary Nude Recreation we hear about their ideas, challenges, and successes.

Cap d’Agde – Naked City

Since the resort town was built in the 1960’s, it has been promoted as the ultimate naturist destination; a place where you can fully live clothesfree and all modern services and conveniences are available. While this area of the city of Agde is officially known as the “Quartier Naturiste” (naturist neighbourhood) it is also often described simply as the “naked city”. In the last few decades it has also been heavily criticised for the open sexuality and preponderance of swingers’ clubs. So is it naturist? We asked Nick and Lins of Naked Wanderings and Dan Carlson, also known as Naturist Dan, of the Meandering Naturist blog about their experiences.

The Naturist Symbol

In the fall of 2020, a collaborative project was launched on Twitter with the objective of creating a universal naturist symbol. Many designs were submitted and after several rounds of voting a symbol was selected. Linda Weber has been a very active and vocal proponent of both the symbol and the #IAmtheFaceofNaturism hashtag so we contacted her and asked her to tell us more about it.
