Do You Need Clothes in a Naturist Resort?

Technically, walking around without clothes is obligatory. In practice, though you often notice people who are walking around with clothes on as they walk to the beach for example, or back to the hotel.

Most people wear clothes when it is cold or and in the evening times.

It can get a fair bit cooler in the late evenings on some days although generally speaking, the temperatures are very pleasant in the main summer months up until midnight and whatever you choose to wear or not wear is usually fine.

In the daytime, once you reach the beach area, you will see very few people wearing any clothes at all.

The main need for clothing will be a hat, a pair of sandals, and a towel (for when you want to sit down in public areas such as the cafe’s or bars for hygiene reasons).

What To Wear In the Evenings

The resort is a place where you can be without clothes 24 hours a day.

Most people though do get dressed in the evening as they go off to the bars and clubs within the resort.

You could if you wanted, wear nothing and go to the bars and restaurants but you might feel out of place because most other people wear clothes in the evenings.

You will always see one of two people still dressed in their birthday suits at night, but not many (except for on the campsite).

It can actually be a lot of fun seeing what people wear in the evenings because some people, particularly women, wear some unusual and interesting outfits.

These outfits are sometimes designed such that you can see pretty much all the person has to offer.

You can also find some nice evening wear from the shops on the resort although the items can be a little pricey.

There are around 30 or so shops which are based actually within the enclosed village and which satisfy literally every taste.

General Dress Sense

In terms of actual style and dress sense, there is no real correct or incorrect way to dress if you are putting something on in the evenings.

The general rule really is that anything goes and you can wear as much or as little as you want.

Just get create and reveal whatever you wish. There is not a style of dressing that can shock anyone at this resort.

What to Pack

The great thing of course about a trip to Cap d’Agde is that you really do not need to pack many clothes!

The list below though gives you a guide to some of the things you might wish to pack that you can wear at the resort.

• Hat (to protect against the sun)
• Sunglasses
• Warm top (for the late evenings as it can still get cold on some evenings when it is late)
• Sandals
• Evening wear (for men you will need shoes to get in some clubs such as Le Glamour).
• Your everyday wear for when you leave the resort at the end of the holiday.
• Towel/s (you will need these for sitting down on in the bars and restaurants (if you are not wearing on your bottom). This is for hygiene reasons.
