**East Lothian nudist club to celebrate Christmas with naked festivities**
'If you are a regular, why not bring a friend for a half price first visit. What have you got to lose but your inhibitions?'
By Ben Borland & Nicholas Malizia, 22 NOV 2025
Scotland's two largest naturist clubs are planning to celebrate Christmas in the nude with festive events on Sunday, December 21.
Over on the east coast, the Forth Naturists will be holding their regular fortnightly get-together at the Aubigny Centre in Haddington, East Lothian.
As well as a 25m swimming pool, sauna and steam room, there is a sports hall for naked volleyball and badminton and a studio for naked yoga. Tea, coffee, cold drinks and snacks will be available, reports the Scottish Daily Express.
The club, which has been going strong since 1983, states: "If you are a regular, why not bring a friend for a half price first visit. What have you got to lose but your inhibitions?"
Not to be outdone, Glasgow's Sunday Swim club at Arlington Baths in the city's Woodlands district is also holding a pre-Christmas get-together on the same day.
Up to 60 members are expected for the weekly naked swim and to relax in the Turkish baths and sauna suite. Naked yoga sessions will also be running, and the club proudly states that it is the "only naked swim in the world with travelling rings and trapeze over the pool"...

**Nude saunas in Ireland: ‘I realise I will soon be naked among these strangers’**
Clothing-optional or nude saunas are becoming more popular in Ireland, but what does it feel like to get naked and sweat in a communal setting?
By Rosanna Cooney, Nov 23 2025
People arrive bundled up in winter layers. Dark jackets, gloves and scarves that stretch up to their chins. As they stand around chatting, I realise I will soon be naked among these strangers.
When the clock hits 9pm, the group moves from the lobby to the sauna’s changing area. It seems silly to use a cubicle to remove my clothes, but the act of undressing feels private, even if my body isn’t about to be.
Peeling off my socks, I can see bums, thighs and bellies, through the crack of the cubicle’s saloon door, as people happily remove their clothes in the open, stashing them away.
I’m joining a clothing-optional session at The Barrel sauna in Dundrum in Dublin. It’s open to anyone, but three of the four saunas are rented by the Irish Naturist Association (INA), a members-only group that comes together regularly to practice social nudity in a non-sexual environment.
Irish attitudes to naturism are still muted in comparison to many of our European neighbours, but our laws on nudity are perhaps surprisingly liberal. As long as there is no intention to cause fear, distress or alarm by exposing yourself, public nudity is legal...

The highly informative website for the WORLD NAKED BIKE RIDE BERLIN planned for 9 August 2026 is now online:
https://www.wnbr-berlin.de

Among other things, it shows the planned (and largely already approved) approximately 45 km long demonstration route.
Together we will ride through the streets of Berlin to send a message:
- for tolerance and self-acceptance
- for closeness to nature and protection of the environment
- for inclusion and diversity
and to cultivate our naked body culture
Whether completely naked, colourfully painted or lightly clothed: ‘As bare as you dare!’

**Bare Necessities Nude Cruise & Volleyball: Inside the Nudist Lifestyle with naturist, Eli Porr**
By Carmelia Ray, 21.11.2025
Curious about nudist cruises, nude beaches, or naturist volleyball tournaments… but a little nervous to ask?
In this honest, funny, and super real conversation, Celebrity Matchmaker Carmelia Ray sits down with Eli Poor, a third-generation nudist and competitive volleyball player, to talk about the Bare Necessities nude cruise, nude volleyball tournaments across North America, and what life is actually like inside the nudist/naturist community.
Eli shares how he grew up in a nudist resort, why volleyball is the sport of nudism, and how he met his wife at a nude volleyball tournament. They also dive deep into body image, confidence, safety for women, erections (yes, we go there), and what really happens on a nude Caribbean cruise.
What we talk about in this episode:
What the Bare Necessities nude cruise is and where it sails (Bahamas, Jamaica, ABC islands, leaving from Miami)
How Eli grew up as a third-generation nudist and what nudist resorts are really like
The difference between nudism/naturism vs. “lifestyle” (swinger) resorts
How nudist events handle phones, cameras, privacy, and safety
Women’s biggest fears: being gawked at, objectified, or secretly photographed
How the community protects women & newcomers (rules, consent, “good nude stewards,” safe spaces)...

**Naked in the dark, wrapped in steam: Inside Slovakia’s most theatrical spa**
At Rajecké Teplice’s Aphrodite Spa, jungle-sound rituals, mineral pools and medical-grade treatments merge into a wellness experience that blurs myth and medicine.
By Daniel J. Stoll, 21. Nov 2025
It is not often one finds oneself naked, in pitch-black darkness, sweating among strangers. Wild jungle sounds and soaring Peruvian flutes echo through the hut as a man in a toga steps toward a raised bed of stones. He ladles water from a wooden bucket onto the rocks, releasing a wave of steam and earthy, woody, floral scents that swallow the room whole. This is the start of the “jungle” sauna ritual at the Aphrodite Spa in Rajecké Teplice, Slovakia.
Rajecké Teplice sits beneath the Malá Fatra mountains, a region known for calcium- and magnesium-rich thermal waters that have long attracted visitors seeking relief and recovery. The Aphrodite Hotel and Spa complex exists to showcase these springs: part wellness retreat, part theatrical homage to imagined Greek and Roman grandeur. The expectation is clear — you’re here to feel something anew.
Inside the sauna, the sounds, scents and heat slow time. You’re not entirely naked, just wrapped in a white sheet that requires constant vigilance to preserve modesty. The sauna master circles the space, whipping a long towel through the air as thunderclaps and rain sounds rumble around you. By the third bucket of water, the heat feels nearly corporeal. Your breathing grows heavy in the dense dark. And then, suddenly, it ends — an explosive rush of sweat and relief as you step into daylight and the cool mountain air...

**Garry Starr to attempt nudity world record**
19th November 2025
With hit live show Garry Starr: Classic Penguins set to transfer to The Garrick Theatre, performer Damien Warren-Smith is applying for the world record for "longest cumulative time of full-frontal nudity in a West End stage show".
Classic Penguins, which most recently has been undertaking an extended run at The Arts Theatre, will move to the 700 seat Garrick Theatre in February for four performances.
The show sees Damien Warren-Smith performing without clothes (aside from flippers) for much of its duration, as he charts the character Garry's noble quest to save books from extinction by performing every Penguin Classic novel ever written.
His promoters explain: "In true Garry Starr style, ahead of the transfer he has officially submitted to the Guinness Book of World Records with the application for 'Longest cumulative time of full-frontal nudity in a West End stage show'. If verified, this audacious accolade will see Garry officially recognised for taking artistic exposure to entirely new heights in the name of great literature."
They add: "In the lead up to bringing the show to the Garrick Theatre, Garry Starr will patiently wait the required 12 weeks for Guinness World Records to decide whether his achievement merits recognition as the longest stretch of full nudity on a West End stage."...

**Call to ban naked bike rides after nude cyclist attacked by vigilante binman**
By Sara Odeen-Isbister, November 21, 2025
A campaigner is calling on naked bike rides to be banned in the UK after a nude cyclist was assaulted by a vigilante binman.
The victim was taking part in a World Naked Bike Ride in Colchester, Essex, on August 9, when Lee Turnage rode up alongside him on a motorbike and punched him.
The cyclist fell off his bike as a result and was left with a leg injury that, he says, continues to cause him a lot of pain.
Turnage was sentenced to 14 months in prison suspended for two years earlier this month.
His lawyer told Ipswich Crown Court he hadn’t realised the men he saw cycling were part of an event, and assumed they were ‘perverts’.
Those who take part in the World Naked Bike Rides – an estimated 10,000 a year across the globe – say the event is a protest against car culture, a call for safer cycling and a way of highlighting environmental concerns such as climate change and the dependence on oil.
They also see it as a way of advocating for a ‘more body-positive world’.
According to organisers, it does not breach the Sexual Offences Act 2003, which states public nudity is not an offence as long as its not done with intent to cause alarm, harassment or distress.
But some say the events pose a dangerous threat to the wider public, especially children.
Campaigner Emma Jane Taylor told the Daily Mail:’Allowing the naked bike ride simply allows perverts to be seen and normalises an already difficult conversation.’
She has started a petition calling for the London Naked Bike Ride to be banned...

An interesting Video from German TV, created in collaboration with https://www.GetNakedGermany.de:
(Unfortunately, the video and subtitles are only available in German, but perhaps there is a way to translate the video using AI.)

**The taboo of nudity – are we more prudish than our parents?**
Nudity is everywhere: on television, in advertising, on social media. But what about when it comes to ourselves? It's not so easy, says Y-History reporter Lisa – and wonders: Am I perhaps being prudish? Her parents were much more relaxed, even going to nudist beaches sometimes. But who does that nowadays? It's hard to believe that Germany was once at the forefront of nudism – Lisa finds pictures dating back to the 1920s. The question remains: where and why did we lose our nudity?
