This is a B&B www.labergerieducap.com just a 5 minute walk from the Village Naturiste entrance. For other places in the area you will need some form of transport.

What is vibe in October? I will be in south of france on business second week of October and plan to stay a few days at Cap D'Agde. I suspect most of it is shut down after the peak season ends in September, but it there still some life left in the place...or is it a ghost town?

Hello I'm new here, just joined today,
This topic, this place is very interesting, is what I have to say. I've always wanted to go, but alas, I currently have no funds to take me that far, and I don't speak French.
The only world traveling I did was in the US Army, and there were no Nudist places in Turkey, well not where I was stationed.
Being laid off from Government Service over the last 13 years, has left me with little income. Security Jobs, are hard, because most want you to do the duty of Law Enforcement, without the extra pay, no medical, no dental, so you work yourself to death with little or no money to show for it.
Being a writer, and curious about the world I'm never going to see, I have affored a few various Naturistic Documentaries, some from Russia/Ukraine, Czech/Slovic Republic, France/Cap De Adge, all showing me how other cultures experience Naturism, outside the US.
I am a former Naturist of (1991-1996), I needed to escape some serious Harrasment from my female Boss, while I worked for the Government, and I found Harbin Hot Springs, in Middletown, CA, to be the place to do it. After losing my job, I was never able to go back due to lack of funds and just to far to drive.
So here I am, searching the internet, looking for people to speak with, that hold no taboos on Naturism.
I hide my interest in Nudism, from everyone in my family, and I have been doing that for many years now, I will never be allowed to share any of my feelings with anyone in my family, at all.
I guard my mothers house, when she is out of town, I do the Naturist thing then, I play my Videogames, and I work on my book, all within the confines of my home.
With the loss of my brother at a young age, I have become an introvert to many things, Naturism, took some of that away, but for now, I can only watch the Documentaries, read the forums, and dream.

My wife adn I have 3 kids 2 boys ages 10 and 13 and a daughter age 6. We have raised the kids in the naturist lifestyle from the start. Each summer we take a 2 week naturist vacation in either Croatia on the beach, in Corsica ( La Chiappa resort) or in France at La Jenny resort. All these places are really family frinedly wiht lots of kids of various ages which is great for our crew. i always have to laugh at my guys becasue on the few occasions where we do go to textile beaches in the US, they will not wear anything more revaling that board shorts. For me if I have to wear a suit it is a g-string or at most the briefest mens bikini I can find and get away with. But my guys...DORK SHORTS no flexability AT ALL. However when we are on our annual eurpoean trip (or at our own pool for that matter) as soon as we are within 10 miles of our chosen resort all the kids are stripping off their clothes as fast as humanly possible. By the time we drive through the resort gate the kids are totally nude and in most cases they bail on us as I stop the car to register before we go to our cottage. They are out of the car and headed to the beach the pool the game room, the shops wherever in search of their friends. (another good thing about the palces we go..they are totally safe for the kids. ..we have never had any problems and are ttally relaxed with having them strike out on their own at each of these resorts, can only say that I have not had similar comments from those of our friends who take their kids to a textile resort) If the weather is nice, and it usually is during late July and early august when we take our trip, my kids will not put one a stitch of clothing for our entire 2 week stay (yet another thing my wife adn I LOVE about naturism...even with my kids packing for vacation is so quick and easy MY WIFE LOVES IT!). Last summer we went to La Jenny and a week into our trip some of our more conservative midwestern realitives came for a visit. They are nice people and my kids LOVE their cousins but this was my brother and his wife's first trip to a true naturist resort. SOOO I decide to ease their transition by asking the kids to at least put on some underwear when our guests first arrive. My daughter...no problem but the guys? I had to bribe both of them just to get them to agree to put on the one pair of bikini briefs that each of them begrudengly brought for the trip. They gripe, they complain but I finally get them into their bikinis just before our guests arrive. So I think this is gonna work rihgt? NOPE it lasted a gradn total of 10 minuites. Guests arrive kids greet their cousins I talk to my brother and his iwfe and next thing I know I look up and see 2 pairs of boys' bikini briefs: one light blue pair (10Y)) and one pair white with thin red stripes (13 YO)balled up and thrown on the sreened porch floor. All I see is my guys 2 tanned and totally bare butts heading out the screen door with their cousins in tow yelling "Dad we just could not take those stupid bikinis any more...we're taking Will and Chas to the beach to meet our friends..see you later!...SLAM" that was the last I saw of the bikinis, they stayed in the boys' dresser for the rest of the trip. The kids did everythign and went everywhere nude. My wife adn I decided that this is as it should be...and pledged no more textiles not for family not for friends..if the kids want to be nude they get to be nude..period. All in all I have to say that naturism and our natrist vacations have been fantastic for our family. My kids are well adjusted wonderful people and I truly believe that naturism has played a big part in helping htem becoem the truly wonderful kids that they are. They are totally comfortable with their bodies and have no problem seeing each other, me, their mom or their friends in the nude. They never and I mean NEVER even consider wearing bathing suits in our pool at home and because we run a totally clothing optional home they are nude more than they are dressed. never a problem. We can and do talk about everything with all of them inluding my 13 year old son. I thought and have long feared that as the kids got older they would start to ask to bail on our naturist vacations or to switch the destination to a "normal" resort. My oldest is 13 and I keep waiting for him to bail on our naturist lifestyle. However I have been totally wrong there. Last summer on the flight back home he asked if when we go on vacation next summer if he could bring a friend. I asked him "do you want to go naturist or textile next summer Josh? When I said the word textile he looked at me like I had gone totally insane adn said" Clothes? Dad that is so uncool, who wants to spend their vacation buried under all those stupid clthes? I wanna go back to Corsica...and I can we bring Jack?" (Jack is Josh's best friend and fortuantley Jacks parents are naturists too so it is cool and I was so happy he asked that I agreed on the spot). Corsica it is Josh! NATURIST FAMILIES RULE!!!

Hi everyone. 2 guys here wondering where a good place to stay in Cap D'agde is. Must be clean and comfortable, but doesn't have to be five star. We prefer to go when there's a big crowd in the town so when would be the best time of the year to go for a good atmosphere. We think sometime in July or August, but not sure when the best time is. Probably stay a week. Thanks.

Just go the the main entrance and there is a couple of rental offices. tell them what you are looking for, price range and they'll show you the properties. If you go in August, the prices triple
Live love and have fun

Naturists families DO rule! Thanks for sharing your experiences, my son is 9 fun loving and well rounded... Which I think naturism helped foster! Thanks for giving me a little window into Corsica, we r very excited too be visiting florida next month, and I think if our experiences with naturism here in the Midwest are indicative, we should be able to expect some truly different naturist experiences than we r used too here, closer to home,

Bonjour d'une France très froide!
I'm French and I live just three hours from Cap d'Agde. I've been there numerous times, by myself, with my wife and with friends. I can't tell you how it compares to American sites because I've never been to one and I can't tell you how European attitudes differ from American ones because I'm not American.
So, I'll just tell you honestly what I know. Is that best?
Cap d'Agde was built on an area of land cleared of mosquitoes after the war. It became a naturist site in part because German soldiers stationed by the Mediterranean during the war used to bathe nude there and came back after the war to continue. This was a poor area and an opportunity to bring in money was spotted.
From the start, Cap d'Agde has never been like other French sites. That was never its purpose. The intention was to bring in as many tourists as possible and more tourists than simply wanted the ordinary beaches nearby.
The accommodation was built in the style of the era and probably looked decent then. Now it looks weatherworn and as though it were designed by architectural students from East Berlin. Nevertheless it is proficient. There are three centres, all just two hundred metres apart, all with small shops and restaurants, some centres smarter than others.
You can walk nude wherever you like and whenever you like, in and out of the shops - anywhere. You can walk nude to the long beach. The nudist centre is at one end of the nudist beach. For most of its length, it is conventional and you'll see no overt sex. Walk far enough, though - and it's not a walk you'd embark on in error - and you'll find a section which is much more densely populated. The difference is marked. This is the swingers' section.
In school holidays, little happens. There is a police post nearby and word has it that policemen patrol naked to catch those who go too far. Nobody actually knows that, of course, but the rumour is enough.
Outside school holidays, that section of the beach - and only that section - is libertine. You wouldn't find yourself there by mistake and you wouldn't stay there long even if you did. Touching is permissible, oral sex is permissible, and so is complete sex. In the afternoons, a wave of emotion runs over this part of the beach and many people have discreet but open sex.
Elsewhere, that would be illegal. It doubtless is at Cap d'Agde as well. But since the only people who see it are those who want to see it and those who want to do it, it doesn't panic the horses. It isn't hidden, however, and as ever there are exhibitionists who make a point of sex close to the water's edge where others may be walking. Again, you know why you're there if you go there.
Beyond the swingers' beach is a smaller gay area. I have seen contact there but not full sex. I suspect that happens more discreetly in the dunes but I'm a straight guy and so I haven't been interested enough to look.
Everywhere else, behaviour is perfectly normal. You will be aware that some shops sell vaguely kinky clothes and that the clubs cater for a sexual market, but you don't have to go into the shops (they're pretty tame, to be honest, and more amusing than shocking) and the clubs are closed until late evening.
Almost everybody dresses in the evening. Some dress conventionally, especially men, others more fancifully. It is not considered sinful for a woman to wear a see-through blouse. It is not a sin to wear a short skirt with nothing underneath. It is not a sin, although it's certainly in doubtful taste, to wear a skin-tight, nylon, leopard-print wrap with scarlet high heels. You'll see all that and it doesn't offend, even when it's revealing or just silly, because "liberté" is part of our national motto along with "fraternité" and "égalité".
You can have a wholly blameless time at Cap d'Agde but your freedom to have that equates to someone else's freedom to dress in S-and-M gear late at night and to go to sex clubs. You don't have to do what they do and they don't have to do what you do. "Égalité", remember!
By the way, if you drive to the next village east and park there, you can walk into the nudist centre free. The beach is public and free and there is no fee to enter the centre from the beach side. It's about a 1.000m walk. The only trouble is that there is nowhere to sit in the nudist centre expect in bars. If you stay there, or if you take your car, you can at least have a rest and a change of clothes!
If I can tell you anything else, please just ask.
Salut

hi everyone,
I'm a 31yo male. I have tried some naturist trips for a short time period. I mean each of them 1 or half day short trips. this summer I want to try Agde for 1 week. but I wonder that if it is strange or unacceptable to go there as a single man??? I have to do that, because my wife doesn't want to join me. she doesn't like nudity. we will go a seperate holiday for a long term. this is my own time (and her ofcourse) my aim is not sexual activities (I'm not gay) but only be naked whole days. is it suitable to go there as a single man?

Leo, to your post of 22/01, bravo! I've read too many judgemental criticisms of Cap d'Agde from US naturists who have never visited the Cap. It seems they are unaccustomed to the thinking of a mature society. I visit Cap d'Agde for the naturism and the joy of being nude on holiday without a care in the world. Libertines do not bother me or other naturists who go there. All of it represents freedom and you have put the whole issue of both philosophies at Cap into perspective. Vive La France!

We moored in their Marina for two nights: Definitely interesting - and decent shopping too. Lots of "goings on" of quite an erotic nature on the beach as indicated above, and we were forewarned re. the "adult" nature of the night clubs! First night we stayed on board the boat, second night we decided to have a look first-hand, and it certainly was different - some completely naked, some with exotic (but artistic) body paintings, and some with rather risque "club wear" (or in some cases "club not much wear"!) If barely suppressed eroticism floats your boat, then Cap D'Agde is worth a visit!
Bearing in mind the purpose of the short visit was to reprovision the boat, and effect some ninor repairs / adjustemnts, our stay was definitely not a holiday in the conventional sense, rather a working visit during which we were all able to remain naked at all times.
From what we noticed of the inhabitants, everyone was perfectly normal, and it was interesting to note that everyone seemed to be fairly OK from a body shape viewpoint - so maybe those who visit the Cap are a bit more careful with exercise and diet than the non-Naturist? Also, as expected, everyone was quite brown - even though we visited early in the year (April).
In conclusion - a great place, ace shopping, really good Marina facilities, and very well-behaved clientele (from a public order viewpoint). The girls all found the overall atmosphere very erotically-charged and had a great time in the nightclubs! I slightly missed out since I was single at the time and had added responsibilities of piloting a rather large yacht (chartered) out of their modest Marina entrance (necessitated a good night's sleep!)
The Wife has been keen on visiting during the Aussie winter, and depending on how well our investments perform, maybe 2010 will be the year! DEFINITELY worth the visit, but be open minded about the place - you'll mee the World and his Wife there, and the population encompasses everything from the almost closet Naturist to the out and about rampant sex on the beach (and everywhere else) exhibitionist type. Just like everywhere else I suppose (except that the population is slightly clothing - challenged!). Try it - you'll probably really like it!

Hi Parrotile
There are fat people here in France and there is the start of an obesity problem among young people. But there are many more people in good if not athletic shape. Much of that is that French people do not eat between mealtimes - it is hard to get a meal outside what your mother recognised as Proper Times To Eat - and that French meals are not big. Food and the quality of food is important to French culture and, while you can eat badly in France as anywhere else, it's probably harder to. And chains like MacDonalds are more infrequent than elsewhere.
Yes, there is en erotic charge at Cap d'Agde. For some it is the reason to go, for fewer it is a turn-off. A lot is the freedom. For many there appears a mischief in what they wear and how much they show. They perhaps reason that there's no point in worrying how much you show in the evening if you've been showing it all all day anyway. If you've wondered what it's like to wear a transparent blouse with nothing beneath it, this is the place to find out. If you want to wander topless in a tiny sarong tied so it hides nothing, this is where you try.
That doesn't mean that everyone does or there's pressure on those who don't care to. I concentrate on those aspects because they are how Cap d'Agde differs from conventional clubs, perhaps from what you know. It is not a nudist club and so the rules are different. There are no rules. And that's what makes it so refreshing for many.
happy days

Cap d'Agde naturist resort ("Naked City") - France
