Would you consider a naturist holiday this summer?

Naturism holidays are growing in popularity, and while it may not be everyone's cup of tea, it's a sure way to reduce baggage fees at the airport.

Earlier in July, the Irish Naturist Association called for some of Ireland's beaches to be designated nudist, saying that the move could provide a boost to tourism as 2.5 million people in the UK alone take nudist holidays.

Angela Russell, President of the British Naturism Association, agrees that interest in naturism is on the rise.

Commenting on the launch of a new "naked night," she said that "naturism is becoming more and more accepted and there is a growing desire among people with no experience of naturism to give it a try."

This week, flight comparison site Skyscanner has picked its top five destinations for an all-nude holiday.

Among them is La Jenny naturist resort in France, which boasts Europe's only naked golf course, and Spain's Naked Village, where 200 apartments make up a settlement of naturists who enjoy the freedom of roaming the streets in the nude.

Travel blog GoGirlfriend also picked its favorite nudist destinations this week, selecting Hedonism, a risque resort in Jamaica and the upscale Sea Mountain Rance Resort and Spa in California among others.
