A nudist Day reader, Lawrence from New York state, submitted this moving account of how he came to be a nudist and how it completely changed his outlook on life [edited]:
“Nudism literally saved my life during an episode of depression. I felt lost, insecure, alone and for some reason. I did not like myself. [...]
There was a time when every nudist web site you came across offered the same things: a list of clubs and beaches, tips for newbies, links to other naturist sites, and a photo gallery. With the explosion of web content providers, standing out in the crowd meant finding niches, and this is no less true [...]
Try as we may to let the world know that “nudist” is all about a healthy family-oriented lifestyle, there are scores of misguided, if not unscrupulous, individuals that have indelibly tied the word to “sex”. Recently this author came across an article that spoke of a “nudist” suing such and such, written by a major [...]

Both Clothes Free and NetNude purport to espouse strict naturist standards, eschewing anything imbued with sexuality. This we don’t argue, however, both also sell [...]
Nudist Day’s mission is to bring you human interest stories related to social nudity. On this occasion, we bring you one of our own.
It happened in 2004, in Tenerife, one of Spain’s Canary Islands, on a stretch of rugged coastline frequented by nudists.
This author and his companion at the time, let’s call her Dee, were [...]
Nudist Day has interviewed a great number of people over the last year and a half who declared they weren’t nudists. Yet, many regularly frequent nude beaches and some even go to nudist clubs.
It would be ridiculous if it was because they’re ashamed to be nudists…whilst accepting to be interviewed by a naturist publication. It’s [...]
The Mexican Association of Tourism Developers reports that hotels and resorts in that country that cater to nudists average an occupancy rate of 80 per cent. Although the total economic benefits derived from that sector amounts to only 30 million dollars (US) annually, it’s regarded as a big success story and plans are underway to [...]
