Running clothes left behind in readiness for the swim this morning at Longbridges. We’ve been neglecting Bluesky, which is a mistake because it’s SO much better than the awful X! We’ll rectify that! #naturism #nudism

With storms rolling into Bavaria we’ve moved south of the alps to Udine in Italy. We’ll spend a night here and then cross Slovenia into Croatia and head for Valalta naturist resort which we’ve not visited before. Anyone know it?

We hiked up to Weitschartenkopf today where - somewhere near the top- Nick clearly had a brainwave! What can he have been thinking about?? #naturism #nudism

Walking in Bavaria this morning amongst the forests and the wild flowers. It’s beautiful here with very well marked and maintained paths and plenty of mountain farms supplying milk and beer. Also naturist friendly, though I’m not sure I should have been picking the flowers! #naturism #nudism

We’re in Bavaria, hiking. Yesterday, we finally knocked off the relentless 6,000ft climb of the Watzmann, hard work but well worth it! Today we’re taking a rest by swimming in the Hintersee lake. Very refreshing, and we weren’t the only naturists! #naturism #nudism

We’re camping again this weekend, but in Somerset rather than Dorset. Btw we came last in the round the island race last weekend! But we won the trophy for ‘tenacity’ because, unlike over 300 other boats, we didn’t give up!

We’re sailing around the Isle of Wight tomorrow in the Round the Island Race. 850 boats….and a forecast of heavy rain and strong winds. Views like this are…unlikely, though a probability of zero is not, of course, scientifically permissible 😉

@oxfordcitycouncil.bsky.social have put in a swim ladder at Longbridges! That’s fantastic, thank you ❤️. Definitely a vote winner with us! #naturism #nudism

We’re very lucky to have a new oil on our wall - Amphitrite, queen of the seas, by the super-talented Karina Tarin - www.karinatarin.co.uk. Karina paints nature, gods and goddesses all in a unique and atmospheric style. And Karina’s not afraid of the nude, either. Worth a visit.

We were at Studland on Sunday when a scout troop with scoutmasters came along. They veered off the empty shoreline and plonked themselves down not 10 metres from us, the only people (and naked) on the vast beach. We thought they were going for their skinny dipping badge…but it was just lunch!

We’ll be on Studland nudist beach this morning. Come and say hello if you see us! #naturism #nudism

Just set up our tent at Studland Summer Camp and will be here for the weekend. Who else is coming down? Where else can you camp naturist with a view like that! Aren’t we naturists lucky…? #naturism #nudism

We have a cabinet at home for all the shells and fossils we’ve found on our travels (the only rule is that they have to be found by us and shells have to have no inhabitants). Here’s Nick sporting a small Queen Conch he’d just found on a remote beach in the Caribbean. Look at that smile!

Our naturist weekend: skinny dip at Longbridges on Friday; run to Oxnat for tea and sunbathe on Saturday; tennis and swim at Heritage on Sunday. It doesn’t get much better than that. Hope you all had a great weekend?

Apparently, it’s world naked gardening day today! Who knew! Not us… But luckily we do regular naked gardening, so here’s a pic. #worldnakedgardeningday.

Today we have been painting. And just look at that concentration! #naturism #nudism #painting

Swimming at Longbridges this morning. And the water was….warm 🎺🍾! Wild flower count was 57. Spent the rest of the day painting, but rosé in the sun now 😉

Well…. we don’t get many evenings like this in the UK - especially in April! So, after work, we trotted down to the Thames for a delicious dip. Absolutely beautiful!

This is the naturist beach in Piran, Slovenia. It’s the only naturist beach we’ve been to which has a cathedral as a backdrop - maybe that’s why I look so serious! Piran is beautiful and a visit is very much recommended!

The wild water’s beginning to warm up in the uk, but is still a long way from being pleasant! Still, a skinny dip at any time of year is a tonic for the soul!

We’ve been planning our summer trip to the Alps - and it’s looking like Bavaria or the Tyrol with an exit to northern Croatia if the weather turns against us. Any naturist camping recommendations in those areas?

We’ve seen a few strange sights on naturist beaches over the years, but this one, from a couple of weeks back in the Canaries, ranks as one of the strangest!

We swam at Longbridges this morning and had a long chat to two other ladies swimming. That we happened to be naked wasn’t mentioned, and this is just as naturism should be - unremarkable!

We ran from home to Oxnat - the Oxford naturist club, peacefully located in the woods just outside the city - this morning in just 50 mins. Happy with that, and deserved the cup of tea before the run home!

Very snowy overnight again in Megève - going to have our second day of powder 😍⛷️

There are few better feelings than wandering naked across a beach down to the water to swim. Such a simple way to bring a wave of happiness to one’s life. #naturism #nudism

Serious question - does anyone else play tennis naked, or is it just us? Be good to play doubles, but we seem to be alone!

Naturism: free your body, free your mind, embrace joy. #naturism #nudism

We throw out posts like we throw pebbles into the sea, with no idea how they’ll land or what effect, if any, they might have. But we enjoy the process, and hope to spread the positive message of naturism as we do so. Wishing everyone an exciting 2025. #naturism #nudism

Swimming this morning at Longbridges. Air temp was -3°c with a crisp frost underfoot. Very bracing! We just had a sauna to compensate. #naturism #nudism

Thinking about a New Year’s resolution? Why not make it: to try naturism in 2025? Naturism is easy to achieve and will bring great joy, happiness and liberation! Remember, you have nothing to lose but your clothes!

No other naturists on Studland beach this morning, but our swim did get a round of applause from the passing dog walkers (and some cheering!). #naturism #nudism

If you’ve not experienced the liberation and joy of walking naked on the beach and then into the sea to swim then you are seriously missing out. Make 2025 your year to correct that! #naturism #nudism

We’ve been turning our minds to New Year’s resolutions, and all we can think of is ‘more naturism’. Is that bad??

Happy Christmas one and all. Wishing you a peaceful holiday and a happy Nude Year! Wish we could all raise a glass together. Naturists United, wouldn’t that be great!

Started Christmas Day with an early swim at Longbridges. No better way of preparing for the Feast of the Consumption 🤣

We’ve been Christmas baking this morning- mince pies and a raised pheasant and pigeon pie. Now off for a short pub crawl around Oxford with some of the braver family members 🍻🍾🎄🤶🎅. Merry Christmas one and all x

Too cold to go out today, but not too cold to play Christmas carols on the piano while nick prepares the house for Christmas! #nudism #naturism

Swimming at Longbridges on the Thames at Oxford this morning. Air temp wasn’t too bad but the water was cold. Just us and the honking geese this morning. #naturism #nudism

The tree’s up. Let the season of merriment commence!

Buying ice creams from the ice cream boat on Studland beach where no-one’s bothered if you’re naked or clothed. We wish the whole world could be like that. Nudity should be unremarkable. Simple!

We have our first Christmas event tonight, which is a naturist Christmas dinner at a local naturist club. Can’t wait! 🎄🍾🎶🦃 #naturism #nudism

Think we’ll be mainly indoors for the rest of the day as the next storm approaches. We did run along, and swim in, the Thames this morning. The river has gone down a bit but everywhere is still a quagmire. There’s nowhere now for the rain to go!

Shadow banning naturists and mis-labelling their posts as ‘sexually explicit’ closes down the opportunity for non-naturists to even consider naturism as a concept. Happy to wear the label ‘nudity’ but ‘sexually explicit’ is plain wrong and, arguably, is in breach of our freedom of expression. 😡

We love food, we love culture…and we love naturism. So, where can you go to enjoy all three? Well, the city of Catania on the island of Sicily is a pretty good place to start… #naturism #nudism

Apparently you can buy something called ‘Naked Coffee’. We looked it up, they’re not it doing it right!

We love an early morning swim, especially where it involves a cliff jump into a clear blue lake, and is followed by croissants and coffee…heaven! #naturism #nudism #nudephotography

On our favourite beach in Antigua. The beach doesn’t have a name because the hike means it’s rarely visited. But, if you’re familiar with Antigua, it’s the beach beyond Rendezvous. Well worth the walk! #naturism #nudism#nudephotography

This wet weekend in the uk has felt like 48 hours standing under a waterfall. Definitely not naturist weather, so here’s a picture of me, err…, standing under a waterfall 🤣 #naturism #nudism #nudephotography

Women getting into naturism versus men getting into naturism? Cultural baggage - discuss…
