We had the pleasure of visiting Agde many years ago Pedro, when it was simply a sense of freedom to be naked in a semi-urban environment. Marvellous, it was. It appears to have been overtaken by swingers and gone very, very downmarket. Even if we accept the oft repeated claim (untrue IMHO) that it's just a small section of the 'city' where these sort of things go on, it taints and downgrades naturism as a lifestyle.

It makes it synonymous with 'sex', the very image we've fought hard to cast off for decades.

For me, naturism is a simple, personal freedom to be nude in a semi-urban environment, on the beach or in the sea. (We're long time Vera Playa users, in case you're wondering). It is a pleasure and privilege to understand 'pure' naturism, and with that comes responsibilities to uphold some sense of that purity of the lifestyle, and the freedom to swim and sunbathe without the restrictions of clothing.

Be not too liberal; it doth belong
to dogs alone to fuck the whole day long."
- Friedrich Nietzsche

In my time, I have visited most European naturist resorts, and the only one that seems to have gone this way is Cap D'agde.

As I mentioned once before, my first really big naturist experience was here (with my very young girlfriend, on her first ever holiday without her parents) when we stumbled on the nude beach whilst staying at the nearby campsite at Marseillan Plage. I doubt if she would have been quite so enthusiastic to spend the whole days naked with me, if that had been today!

Mind, you today there are these nasty old men with digital cameras, that were not around then either!
