A trip to a nudist resort can be a great form of stress relief, as well as a wonderful way to experience nature. If this will be your first time visiting a nudist resort, there is much you need to prepare for such as knowing what nudism is all about, how to find a safe nudist resort, what to bring with you, and just as importantly, what not to bring. Also, itd be good to know what to expect once you get there.

If youre new to social nudity you must realize that it isnt about sexuality, erotica, or pornography. Its a lifestyle that proves to be surprisingly relaxing and freeing. Nudist living may also be an effective experience in self-acceptance. Youll find the atmosphere at most nudist parks to be very friendly and even family-like, with an absence of sexual pressure.

To find a safe resort you should consult the American Association for Nude Recreation. They have a list of over two hundred and thirty clubs, camps, and resorts. So, its likely that there may be a resort in your area. Contacting the resort is the best way to get directions, airport information, and rates. Each club has its own specifications as far as clothing, activities, or if families and pets are welcome. If this happens to be your first time, it would be advisable to visit a resort where clothing is optional, so you can become accustomed to the nude lifestyle at your own pace.

Obviously, youll be going nude for most of your time you wont need much on your trip! But, be sure to remember photo identification for registration purposes, comfortable sandals or tennis shoes, large towels as these are used on seating for hygiene purposes, sunscreen, hats, and sunglasses. Also, you may want to bring your favorite book, a flashlight, and clothes for cool nights. For resorts that dont provide food, youll also want to bring an adequate food supply for your stay. Most importantly, bring an open mind with you.

What not to bring, or consider doing, while at a nudist resort is just as important as what you should bring. You dont want to bring camera or video equipment unless youve checked with your particular resort. Many resorts do not allow cameras, as they may add to the inhibitions of other guests who do not wish to be photographed, even incidentally. You should also check on the resorts pet policy before you assume you can bring your pet. Fireworks, firearms, and weapons of any kind are also not permitted on most nudist resort sites, regardless of it being outdoors. Illegal substances and toxic materials are prohibited, as well as anti-social and predatory behaviors due to intoxication. If you will be bringing any unrelated minors with you, you will have to provide written consent from their guardian. As in any public place, littering is prohibited.

When you first arrive at the resort, allow yourself some time to become accustomed with the area. Dont force yourself to undress until you are ready, which may be sooner than you anticipate. Many people find they feel more out of place dressed than they do nude once they arrive. If youre expecting people to stare at you, they wont, everyone is nude so your nudity comes as no surprise. Dont stress if you dont have a perfect body, no one does, and youll notice people will look into your eyes more than they do at your body. Weve all heard stories of overt sexual behavior at nudist resorts, they are just that, stories. Most nudist resorts take steps to insure the safety of its guests by weeding out any potential sexual predators.

By the time you are ready to leave the nudist resort for home its likely youll be relaxed, rejuvenated, and looking forward to planning a return trip! Each person comes away from the experience with something a bit different. Those who didnt share the experience may not appreciate your new understanding of nudism. Remember in your dealings with non-nudists that nudism is legal, safe, and natural. If anyone challenges you, remind him or her that first Olympics in Greece were played in the nude! Nudity is natural.

If you are interested in planning a trip to a nude resort but are unsure if you are ready, you can experiment. Try walking around your house, eating, watch television, or do your household chores in the nude! If you want to attempt something more public, try a nude beach! A nude beach is the perfect place to experience safe and legal social nudity! If you enjoy being nude in your home and the atmosphere of a nude beach, chances are youd enjoy a nudist resort of some type.
