I was looking at the threads, and it seems that the one about the saunas seems to be the most popular. Which surprises me a little. Is it really the best venue for nudity?

My wife and I have done all three. The experiences were very different.

The nude beach. I've really enjoyed my nude beach experiences. It's the variety of people (young/old, different races, shy newbies and experienced nudists) and their different approaches to nudity (topless, bottomless, openly naked), watching people undress, couples frolicking, etc... It's a great people-watching experience.
My wife didn't like it so much. Mostly due to the voyeurs trying to get a good look at her pussy. So now on the rare occasions we go, she just goes topless, which defeats the purpose.

The sauna. Granted, the one we go to is NOT coed. So the time we spend naked is apart; her surrounded by a bunch of women, and me by a bunch of cocks. She likes it more than I do; as a matter of fact she has requested we go back next weekend. But for me it's "meh."

The nudist resort. It certainly doesn't have the same variety of people as the nude beach or sauna. People tend to already be naked when they enter the pool area, and I do miss watching people undress. So it's not quite the people-watching experience that can be found elsewhere.
But my wife likes the fact it's behind closed gates, and not "just anyone" can walk in. The people there are mostly regulars (like us) or members; and since they've seen her naked several times, she's not as "pussy-shy" around them, as she figures they've all probably seen it anyway (which they certainly have). Because it's a social environment, there's a lot more interaction with other naked people, which can be a lot of fun.

In short, as a single guy I preferred the nude beach. As a married guy, I have to go with the resort because that's where my wife can be most uninhibited.

So...what's your favorite venue, and why?
