The Chihuahua beach, one of the best beaches of the world for nudism, is located in Uruguay, in a natural enviroment of sand, sea, forest, and streams and with easy access by car, being at only 1KM away from the route.
A mandatory destination for nature lovers. This area has a temperate climate with four seasons, and because of the climate change, cold is declining, reaching occasionally 25º in winter.This extends the time where beach is enjoyable.
There's a great variety of wild birds on the shores of the El Potrero stream: herons, storks, ducks, black-necked swans, etc and the sound they make during sunset is amazing. A real paradise for those who like to observe birds. El potrero gets his water from The Sauce lagoon which is fed with water from the hills.
We are a married couple,Marcela and Ricardo,that since late 2001 began a new life away from the big city, welcoming passengers from all over the world. Our goal is that those who visit us, enjoy our inn where the concepts of simplicity, comfort and good service come together for our guests.
We invite you to visit El Refugio and rediscover the pleasure of living without haste, enjoying naturism and the small pleasures of life.
According to the International Naturist Federation (INF), "Naturism is a way of life in harmony with nature, expressed through social nudity, linked to self-respect, tolerance of differing views together with respect for the environment". In nudity there are several social activities that can be practiced, like games, sports, warm conversations between friends or family, etc. All activities that are usually performed dressed can be performed in nudity without it being an obligation rather than an individual preference or option.
According to a compilation work by K. Bacher, you have 205 observations and arguments in favor of nudity widely documented with citations, references, scientific research and other resources for further study. You can find the original document at http://www.naturist.com
Naturists are not exhibitionists, or they get naked with the intention to have sex, but because they enjoy being as they came into the world, without any cultural additions.
Naturists do not want to challenge anyone, or exhibit, or feel observed. What they want is to fully enjoy the freedom nudity and contact with nature gives. In the end, they want to enjoy life in a healthy and natural way
The nudity may bother some people, but this is not what naturists desire. This is why naturists in countries that have not yet sufficiently widespread this philosophy, prefer to go to places where nudity is expressly practiced, and where they warn it is tolerated so those who are bothered by nudity will know where not to go.
