Europe’s “first naturist disco” opens in Spain

Sunday, 14 Sep, 2004 0

The burgeoning naturist scene in Spain has moved on a pace in recent years, and it now claiming a European first – a nude discotheque.

 

According to The Guardian, the disco, in the eastern town of Corneall, will hold its first “boogie in the buff” night this Sunday, and hopes to make it a weekly event if there is enough interest.

 

The newspaper quotes the Catalan Naturist Society website as saying: “It will be a place to drink, dance, listen to music, chat to friends or meet new people. We will be able to enjoy going nude and, always with respect and naturalness, the company of other naturists.”

 

Spain’s nudists, The Guardian reports, who have already “claimed stretches of beach around the country for sunbathing”, are branching out into less-familiar nude activities.

 

The country boasted Europe’s first-ever nudist cruise last year, the newspaper states, and last weekend, 150 nudists took part in a 5,000-metre beach run in the town of Sopelana. Nudist sessions are also becoming increasingly popular at municipal swimming pools in Madrid and Barcelona, The Guardian states.
