Lets Get Naked!

Getting naked in a public place (or even a private naturist club/resort) can be an understandably daunting prospect for many people. Some would like to do so but don't because they just feel too uncomfortable. If that's you, then we'd love to help you - so please read on! Others overcome their fears and go for it. To date, I've not yet heard of anyone that tried it only to change their mind. Indeed people that cross that barrier tend to continue to practise naturism from that day on (usually as often as they can!)

Most people describe the pleasure they feel from being nude as a wonderfully liberating and natural sensation. Not only do they enable their senses to better enjoy the natural elements of the sunshine, breeze and water on their bare skin, they often also feel another almost unexpected benefit. Their mind itself seems to relish the feeling of freedom and "back to earth roots" reality. That sounds "Hippyish I know, but it's what I've heard from so many people.

Another important factor is that being a naturist is not about how you look with your clothes off. You do not have to have a perfect figure to feel accepted and respected by other naturists.

We're keen for more people to experience these benefits. New Zealand is an ideal country for naturism, both because of the climate, beautiful surroundings (which enhance that feeling of freedom) and its relaxed laws regarding public nudity.

If you already "Get Naked In New Zealand" then I'm sure you'll agree with what I'm saying. If you're considering "Getting Naked In New Zealand" then I strongly encourage you to "take the plunge", you may well find it more refreshing and enjoyable than you expected!

To those new to naturism/nudism:  Many young adult nudists, or those curious about nudism, feel isolated; unable to find others who share this common view. You may be a little nervous about being naked in front of others. We do understand your fears. So, here at Let’s Get Naked we are happy to team you up with one or two genuine naturist friends who can accompany you to a nude beach or take you on one of our naked tramps. They will be able to explain to you everything you need to know and what to expect, as well as provide you with a sense of safety and security as you take the first steps into a rich and rewarding lifestyle. We think this may be an ideal and more comfortable way for you to be gently introduced to naturism.

Here (in brief) for your interest is what some of our members had to say about ...

A.  What they enjoy about being nude, and ...
B.  How, when and why they became a nudist/naturist.

(Their names have been left out as this is a publicly viewable page).

Member 1 (Male)

A. It makes me feel more relaxed and that I'm definitely not "at work". I love the feel of the sun, breeze, water on my bare skin.

B. My Dad took me to a lovely nude beach when I was a kid. As an adult I often revisisted that beach and now I go to various nude beaches all over New Zealand.

Member 2 (Male)

A. Hard to say. Never thought of myself as one, nor took on that lable. It's always been a way of life for me.

B. Everything! It makes me feel connected to, and at one with, the earth, Papatuaanuku, God's Creation. I love exploring the beaches and forests naked, and feeling the sun and wind and waves on my skin. I love the company of others who also like exploring the feeling of being naked in the wild.

Member 3 (Female)

A. I went to a nude beach with my boyfriend. He'd been many times before so was fine with it. I felt a bit apprehensive but soon got over it. Once the clothes come off you kinda just forget about it.

B. Chilling out in a beautiful location on a sunny day with the warm breeze and feeling at one with nature, splashing in the waves without the hassle of wriggling out of cold wet clothes. Meeting like minded people who enjoy the same things as me without any of the complications of money or status. I love strolling along the beach with a feeling of freedom and tranquility. Nothing beats being on a beach on a hot day completely nude :)

Member 4 (Female)

A. Well, I officially became a nudist last year but I've always gone skinny dipping.

B. I love the freedom ... nothing is better than lying on the beach in the hot sun completely naked. Who would want clothes on here?! Being in the sea naked is amazing - love it! And I love how comfortable/relaxing it is! Lying together with a friend, talking, it's just great!

Member 5 (Male)

A. I recently became a "Naturist", I used to laugh at that term.

B. I LOVE being nude on the beach especially. It's the most relaxing thing I've found to do yet in my life (and I've tried lots of things to unwind after a week of hard work). I can't reccommend it enough. If you haven't tried it, don't knock it, just do it yourself and you'll soon see!

Member 6 (Female)

A. I've always enjoyed being naked. I grew up close to a nudist beach in Northland.

B. I love the sense of freedom that it gives me, I couldn't stop being a naturist if I tried, not that I'd want to! I wish that more people would understand naturism and enjoy being naked. I only have a few other friends that go "natural" at the beach, I think everyone else is seriously missing out! I mean what's the problem!? just get your kit off folks! By the way I'm female, in my early twenties and proud to be a naturist. We're not all old nudies in New Zealand these days you know.
