Naturism

Naturism is a lifestyle in harmony with nature, expressed through social nudity, and characterised by self-respect of people with different opinions and of the environment. Naturism can also refer to a cultural and political movement practising, advocating and defending social nudity in private and public spaces.

Several other terms ("social nudity" as well as "public nudity", and recently: "clothes-free") have been proposed as alternative terms for naturism , but none has found the same wide-spread public acceptance as the older terms 'naturism' and in the United States 'nudism'.

 
 
 

New Zealand has naturist clubs nationwide which welcome new members and their families into a safe, healthy and relaxed environment.

New Zealand has around 11 recognised nudist beaches, including;

North Island

Tapotupotu Beach (Northland)

Karawa Beach (Northland)

Waitata Bay (Northland)

Uretiti Beach (Northland)

Pohutukawa Bay (Auckland area)

Little Palm Beach (Auckland area)

Orpheus Bay (Auckland area)

Opoutere Beach (Coromandal)

Papamoa Beach (Coromandal)

Pekapeka Beach (Paraparaumu)

Breaker Bay (Wellington)

South Island

Mapua Leisure Park (Nelson)

You will notice more nudist beaches towards the top of New Zealand. This is because the climate is much warmer year round the further north you live.
