What it involves

Naturism, often called nudism, has as many definitions as there are naturists. Naturists practice social nudity, aimed at encouraging self respect, respect for others and the environment. Anyone can be a naturist. Your background, age, shape and race are irrelevant when it comes to enjoying the freedom of naturism, which is why it attracts people from all walks of life.

The International Naturist Federation, which represents millions of naturists around the world, describes it as, "A way of life in harmony with nature characterized by the practice of communal nudity, with the intention of encouraging self-respect, respect for others and for the environment.". A good place to start looking to meet fellow naturists is to browse though the local chapter of International Naturist Federation or American Association for Nude Recreation.   Any location that is affiliated with either of those would be an excellent place to meet other naturists

In the outdoors

Nudist Parks and resorts in and around your town or city are some of the best options for meeting men and women who subscribe to the same lifestyle. Keep in mind though that some parks require single males to be a member of AANR for at least a year prior to joining. Before you go, call the park you want to visit for more information. If you are already a member of a nudist park or resort, you know what the rules are. So be yourself and look forward to making new friends and who knows, one of them could end up being that special someone too. If you have the resources and the time, you can also make a trip to nudist resorts in other states and countries. Europe has a healthy tradition for naturism, especially in countries like France, Germany and Holland. Their respect for liberty, freedom and tolerance also extends to naturism which is why you can find singles and groups from across the world flocking here at the nudist resorts, clothing optional campsites, or other places suitable for nude recreation .

Nudist beaches are especially popular since the balmy coastal wealther, lots of sunlight and refreshing waves provide the perfect backdrop for celebrating naturism. In Europe, Australia as well as Central and South America, you can find many such beaches while closer home, Florida attracts naturists with its warm weather and hip sights. However it is always a good idea to check with civic department of the town before arriving at a beach and going au naturel only to realize that nudism it is not allowed. Overseas beaches, especially may have strict rules about full or partial nudity.

Indoors options

If however you are still testing the waters of the naturist lifestyle, you may be hesitant to go Full Monty in the outdoors. In such a situation, you can explore indoor venues to come across other naturist men and women. Look for saunas and baths in your town or city which cater to naturists; if there aren’t any devoted exclusively for the use of nudists, perhaps they allow so every once a week or on certain days. Skinny dipping in the pool is also a good way to start when just getting aquainted with the naturist way of life. Go through naturists resources until you come upon a naturist non-landed club in your area. These groups usually organize functions like renting a pool for nude swims and are great for nudists still feeling their way about.

Attend nudist events

Most nudist parks and resorts have fun social activities scheduled all year long-even during the winter season; sign up for their mailing list and attend a few events. Think about trying bowling, horseback riding, or dancing in the nude. Not only will you have a great time, you might even meet find yourself a date in the process.

Go online

With naturism getting more takers as an alternative lifestyle, dating sites which cater to naturists have sprung up in the last few years. Sign with one for which you have references from friends and other naturists or look closely at their privacy and payment policies. Apart from connecting you with fellow nudists, some of these dating sites may also keep you posted on naturist events scheduled in and around your area, thus increasing your chances of meeting other nudist men and women. However like all forms of online dating, you need to be cautious here as well. Alternately you can explore naturist/nudist chats and message boards. These usually cover several different categories and topics, besides a chat room. Being a regular visitor will allow you meet and get to know people online to start making acquaintances and friends. When you find a naturist resort or nude beach in your area that you'd like to visit you can ask around to see who else will be attending. That'll give you an opportunity to meet up with people you already know so you don't feel quite so alone when you visit the resort or beach and find it filled with strangers.

Ask around

Family and friends, that are aware of your lifestyle choices, might be able to introduce you to new people. Again as you drop in at nudist beaches and resorts with greater frequency, you can ask few familiar faces for further references. However if you don’t wish to advertise your lifestyle presence in your daily life, that’s OK. Since clubs and their members keep membership lists confidential, other friends and acquaintances need not know about your naturist lifestyle unless you tell them.
