Naked holidays might not be for everyone, but stripping off to relax is growing in popularity.

A number of nudist options are out there for those willing to let loose and go naked on beaches, bikes and beyond.

And, a naked tourism industry has sprung up around the desire to go clothes-free in both the UK and abroad.

In Spain, naturists can remove their clothes on plenty of sand beaches including the Vera Playa Naturist zone in Spain.

While in other areas in Spain going in the buff is frowned upon there is a “no swimsuit day” on many beaches in July – but, Vera lets you get your booty out 365 days a year.

Meanwhile Desire Experience is one travel website with an entire section dedicated to those Brits who are looking to bare all on their summer hols.

Described as “adult-only holidays where you can go naked if you wish”, the all-nude resorts and cruises include clothing optional areas.

And, people have been raving about their names holidays around the world – from bike rides to honeymoons.

Check out their experiences below…

Nude honeymoon

A couple who loves being fully naked decided to visit the largest “nudist city” in the word for their romantic honeymoon.

Cap D’Adge is a somewhat controversial French city by the seaside on the Mediterranean coast where people are permitted to live their lives fully nude.

Arthur O Urso and Luana Kazaki chose Cap D’Agde as the number one destination for their honeymoon.

They noted: “Couples should look for new experiences early in their marriage and not let it cool off!

“The city was elected the capital of sex and the experience is worth starting a marriage with adventures and new things, in addition to pleasure.

“We did this to get out of the sameness.”

Despite being a liberal city, which allows nudity, public sex is forbidden in Cap D’Adge.

You can be fined up to €15,000 (£12,860) if you are caught doing something inappropriate.

Naked cycling

Colin Unsworth, 52, and his cycling partner Sadie Tann, 32, were clapped along as they journeyed from John O’Groats to Lands End on a tandem.

Colin and Sadie embarked on the 50-mile-a-day journey to raise money for mental health charity Mind and Rewilding Britain, which aims to tackle climate emergency.

Colin explained: "I've been following the progress of Rewilding Britain and rewilding projects for a long time and I just think it is a fantastic thing that we should all be talking about.

"As naturists who are into nature connections and value mental health, we thought we can do some sort of stunt to raise awareness.

"The Rewilding Britain website says think 'big and act wild', well there's no bigger bike ride and it's a pretty wild day to do it."

It is not an offence to be naked in public in England and Wales, but it does become one if it can be proved a person stripped off with the intention to cause harassment, alarm or distress.

In terms of reaction from the public, "the vast majority of people beep and wave, video and smile".

"They say we've got some bottle," Colin said. "It's generally positive."

No Clothes Festival

Social media star Kate, known as @fullplatekate on Instagram, took to the site to share her experiences from Nudefest.

Nudefest which takes place in Somerset, is the UK’s largest naturist festival, where 600 people spend the week starkers as they enjoy a range of entertainment and activities.

Talking about the event, Kate, who is known for her body positive posts, admitted she found it "empowering".

Opening up to her 13,400 followers, the social media star said: "Being naked was remarkably empowering.

"I saw so many bodies. Completely unique, and ALL beautiful.

"I loved being around people who seemed to be so confident and carefree. It made me realise that a body is just a body. It's a vessel that we live inside of."

She added: "Also, EVERYONE had cellulite. This might not be your cup of tea, and to be honest, I didn't think it was mine.

"However, today has helped me with my deepest most subconscious body-image issues. I have been able to let go of that fear of judgement from others. Because really, who actually cares?"

She added: "I'm home from Nudefest with a changed attitude to nakedness!"
