My wife and I used to go to clothing-optional resorts; and indeed this was the case more often than not. Everyone is naked in the pool area because it's mandatory; but then women cover up whenever leaving the pool area in many cases.
But we were lucky enough to come across a "nude-obligatory" resort. I don't know what percentage of resorts have full nudity as a rule; but it's fairly small I think. It's more financially viable for resorts to be C/O because women don't feel "forced" to stay naked; as they might not want to come back afterwards if they do.
It was definitely a stretch for my wife at first because she was not used to hanging out completely naked all day. I didn't think she'd want to go back after our first time; but to my surprise she did. I think it was not only because she liked the resort itself, but mostly because she liked the fact that the people that could see her naked at any time were also all naked themselves - so there is no "imbalance." Now she doesn't care to visit C/O resorts anymore because she enjoys just leaving everything in the trunk of the car after checking in, and doing everything (socializing, paddleboarding, hiking) naked the entire time. I think there are a lot of nudists like us that prefer that "totally naked" experience and are not looking for a bunch of people hanging out covered up.
I've only been to one nude beach since Mazo closed; so I don't know the current state of them.
