3. Three Seas Cruises

This nudist cruise departs from Rome, Italy, on its way to Sicily, Croatia and Slovenia.

The ship resembles something from a Pirates of the Caribbean movie rather than a modern cruise liner, thus increasing the adventure.

The five-mast Royal Clipper can accommodate roughly 230 passengers.

The trip is organized by the Bare Necessities travel company and is certainly a once-in-a-lifetime experience.

4. South Pacific Escape

Enjoy a two-week cruise across the Pacific islands aboard the Paul Gauguin and visit exotic destinations every day.

The boat is small, but has clothing-optional spots and many little luxuries, giving you the impression of being on your own private yacht.

Start in Tahiti and cruise to the Cook Islands, Bora Bora, Rangiroa and other paradise-like islands, stopping at some of the best nudist beaches along the route.

5. Carnival Victory “Big Nude Boat”

A cruise on the Carnival Victory’s Big Nude Boat is a must.

The cruise, organized by The Bare Necessities, sails across the Caribbean, stopping in the Bahamas, including at Half Moon Cay’s nudist beach, and Cuba.

Stay in a suite with a balcony viewing the sea or visit one of the ship’s 13 decks.

Carnival Victory has lounges, world-class cuisine, bars, shows, casinos and more to keep your days exciting.

Do you enjoy watching sports?

The SkyBox Sports Bar is fantastic for that, while the Alchemy Bar is ideal for watching the ship’s magicians work their magic.

    I am a bit confused . It is not understood that where and when we can remain nude.

      When you go to the terminal you remain dressed. On the ship you stay dressed as well at the beginning. When the ship gets out to international waters they will announce that it is time to strip it all off. Dining rooms and certain activities will require clothing for safety. Including when you disembark the ship, even if you are on your way to the nude beach. Temporary dress and then you can take it off again. Other than that, enjoy being nude!

  2. My wife has never been “not dressed” among strangers. Is there a problem if she keeps herself covered until she warms up to the atmosphere? Also, once announced “ok to strip” are there areas on the ship other than dining that remain clothed?

  5. This sounds like a wild way to get away from it all. The experiences on these cruises sound completely unique, especially the chance to visit those beautiful nudist beaches. Definitely adds a whole new meaning to “freedom on the seas.”

  6. This post really got me thinking about how liberating a clothing-optional cruise could be. The idea of lounging in a hot tub under the sun without a care in the world sounds so freeing, and the mention of stops at nude beaches just adds to the whole vibe. I’ve always been a bit of a wanderer, and hopping on a ship like the Bliss Cruise sounds like the perfect way to explore some beautiful places while also stepping out of my comfort zone. It’s tempting to shake up my

    I didn’t think there were so many options for nude cruises! The idea of lounging on a warm beach with no clothes sounds liberating. The Three Seas Cruises from Rome really caught my eye; it feels like a totally different vibe sailing on that five-mast ship. What an adventure!

  8. These sound pretty wild honestly. For someone who has never done a nude beach, do people actually feel awkward the first day on something like Bliss Cruise out of Fort Lauderdale, or does it all just start feeling normal after a couple hours on deck?

  9. What if you are single or widowed? can you still take a cruise on Bliss?
