Nudity was legal on all Portuguese beaches, but recent legislation apparently restricted it to 2 beaches: Meco and praia 17, near Lisbon. I don't know for certain if problems had arisen in towns or smallvillages. Anywhere outside of towns should be fine. Queries can be
addressed to: Federac,a~o Portuguesa de Naturismo Apartado 3232, 1306 Lisboa - PORTUGAL fax number +351 44.37.608[Original from Fco.Javier Herrera Lotero <vax242@tidos.tid.es>]

Subject: SPAIN
The official version of this FAQ entry is located at
http://www.alumni.caltech.edu/~richard/naturism/Europe/Spain.html
Contrary to most extended opinion, nudism is not illegal in Spain. Total nudity is not recommended in the many town or village beaches around the large (in European terms) Spanish coast, although toplessis usual as it is in inland major town swimming pools. In the case
of total nudity, police officials just can ask you to put something on when somebody else claims to be disturbed, which only happens in the crowded and urban beaches. Accurate information on any area can be obtained from: F.E.N. (federacisn espaqola de naturismo) C. Mallorca 221, 30, 2a 08008 Barcelonatel. (+spain) 91- 4540508/4548732

public nude beaches, so it should not be difficult to find one. They
are open to any person. Call the NFN, or ask a police officer or a
local inhabitant. In addition there are 38 official public nude
recreation areas, often alongside lakes. Also these are open to the
general public. For example, you can visit some beaches on the North
Sea coast, approximately 50 miles from Amsterdam. Zandvoort (a few
kilometers south of the town), Bloemendaal aan Zee (near IJmuiden), Wijk aan Zee, Castricum aan Zee, or Bergen aan Zee. RESORTS -------There are 52 naturist resorts, all over the country. Most resorts
are owned by a club, and to be allowed on the resort one must be amember of a naturist club, or a member of NFN. Some of the resorts
allow camping, some are for recreation during the day only. Often a
daily fee applies. Some resorts are commercial, and allow anyone who
pays the fee. Six of the resorts are on a farmyard. Some examples:
Amsterdam (1. north shore of the Nieuwe Meer; 2. a small isle in Sloterparkbad), Oostzaan (Het Twiske), Buitenhuizen (east of the parking lot at the farm Zorgvliet) PUBLIC SWIMMING POOLS IN AMSTERDAM ----------------------------------These have some days for nude recreation. I don't have a schedule,
so ask when you are there: - Openluchtbad Sloterpark, Slotermeerlaan 2; - Floraparkbad, Sneeuwbalweg 5; - Marnixbad, Marnixplein 9; - Brediusbad, Spaarndammerdijk 306; - Sportfondsenbad-Oost, Fronemanstraat 3; - Zuiderbad, Hobbemastraat 26.[Original from Gary Pence <gpence@ocf.Berkeley.EDU>,

Subject: ITALY
The official version of this FAQ entry is located at
http://www.alumni.caltech.edu/~richard/naturism/Europe/Italy.html
Generally, Italy is not a good country for naturism. Nudity, even in
an out-of-sight beach, can be still a problem. Topfree was made legal
on all Italian beaches on 1981. In 1985, an appeals judge ruled that
"discreet and natural" nudity is OK, "as long as it is not done in ashow-off or provocative way." Caution is still advised, as this is a
hot issue there.
