Nakations Popular in Croatia
Croatia

Almost a century after a "royal skinny- dip" made it a nudist destination, Croatia is striving to attract more of the world's "Nakationers" with an island just for nudists at the location of the infamous "royal skinny-dip."

 

The Kandarola rock and pebble beach, on the Croatian island of Rab, is where Britain's King Edward VIII and his future wife, American socialite Wallis Simpson, went for a nude swim in 1936. Kandarola has been known as English Beach since and nudist beaches have become more prominent along Croatia's Adriatic coast and its myriad islands. Croatia currently has 11 naturist camps, as well as dozens of nudist beaches.

 

Nudists have visited Rab from the turn of the 20th century but the royal couple's dip sealed the location's worldwide fame and is considered the founding moment of Croatian naturism. The website of the Croatian tourism board proudly boasts that the Island of Rab is "the birthplace of nudism" and reports that US cable news channel CNN recently included it in a list of top ten world islands for tourists with alternative tastes. It is estimated that some 15 percent of more than 10 million tourists that visit Croatia each year are occasional nudists. There were no figures available for the number of tourists staying in naturist resorts.
