Good To Know
Everything you need to know about naturist etiquette…
If you’re new to naturism, there are a few simple points of naturist etiquette that are helpful to know. Much like in the textile world, there are shared social norms that create a comfortable, respectful environment for everyone enjoying a naturist setting.
Yes. Many of our guests are first-time naturists. We offer a calm, respectful and supportive environment where you can ease into naturism at your own pace.
No. Naturism at BHH is strictly non-sexual. It is about comfort, wellbeing and respect. Any inappropriate behaviour is not tolerated.
Yes. Naturism is legal in Spain, including the Canary Islands. Fuerteventura is particularly well known for its relaxed attitude to social nudity.
No. Clothing is always optional. You decide what feels right for you, especially when you first arrive.
Very much so. Solo travellers are warmly welcomed and make up a large part of our guest community.
Pack as you would for any warm-weather holiday: sunscreen, a hat, comfortable footwear, swimwear (optional!), and something light for evenings out.
Towels are a MUST to have. There are various sizes and types of towels you can use to sit on for hygienic reasons. Where ever you go, if you are going to sit anywhere you should sit on your towel. Especially if you are going to go to someone’s house or visiting a resort. You will be required to sit on your towel regardless if you just had a fresh shower.
Yes, the resort is clothing-optional throughout, including communal areas and swimming pool.
Some weeks include optional activities or social events like BBQ or Sailing, but participation is always optional.
No. BHH is relaxed, friendly and peaceful. Guests come to unwind, not to party. Swingers are strictly not welcome.
Yes, they can happen. especially if you are new to nudism. The best way to deal with this is to either turn over on your towel or if you are at a beach, you can stay in the water until your situation comes more under control. However if you see someone with an obvious erection and is purposely drawing attention, let a lifeguard or authorities know about this and in most cases, they will be kicked out and banned from coming back again.
When you are at a nude beach, just because you are allowed to be naked does not mean that the facilities are accessible in the nude, so keep your clothes close or wrap yourself with your towel when visiting the beach cafe for example.
It does not take verbal language to be able to know what you are not saying. Body language can sometimes speak louder than words. You don’t want to be sitting like the barn doors are wide open. Sit properly and keep your legs together. We all know you have one. Nobody wants to see your legs spread open wide.
Body jewellery and tasteful piercings are acceptable provided they are not worn in a sexual context.
