I think there is a few, the best known one was Falkirk Dan, but I don`t think he has been on the forum for a while..

Does it really mattwr? The great thing about naturism is you really can't tell wealth, social status, job, religion or nationality. Why have Scottish naturists and Irish naturists and. . .?

I'm Scottish, been to Jandia 5 years in a row, but I have to agree with SheilaW that it doesn't matter where fellow naturists come from. When I go on holiday I prefer to mix with different nationalities and mindsets, and not hang around with lots of other Scots, I get enough of that at home!

Did bigcountry have any particular reason for asking this question?

Sheila.  A Scottish naturist must be an incredibly hardy individual.  Try walking down Union Street in the middle of January. Even with long johns & a duffel coat its touch & go. Then there is the issue of spontaneous combustion when they step out into the Fuerte sun.

My ancestors where from Ireland, so I also carry the toast gene. I can burn under a 60 Watt light bulb if I don't put on factor 50. So yes, I thing we deserve a special mention.

Hi I am Scottish and have been to Fuerteventura about 10 times. Was there last month when weather wasn't great believe it or not.

Looking to head somewhere in the med for a change in June so would welcome any ideas of places worth going to.

mickboy,

I've mentioned it several times before on this forum, but we always alternate between Fuerteventura and Formentera in the Balearics. June will be idyllic there, and naturism common on virtually every beach.

Playing your bagpipes is fine, but tossing your caber can land you in hot water!

Falkirkdan is back!!!!!

Yes been while since last on forum but does not mean given up on Fuerty and will be back in El Cotillo in Sept for couple of weeks.   Not usual gaff El Caleton but in the village so suppose will be wearing clothes more.   
You will be surprised how many naturists there are in Scotland, with some very active clubs.   To the east is Forth Naturists with swims in Haddington 1st and 3rd Sunday evenings of the month.   To the North is Sunnybroom near Aberdeen who have their own site.   In Loch Lomond there is a site on Inchmurrin Island.   Been there two years ago with crowd of Forth friends what must have been that summer's hottest day.   We spent a while swimming in the Loch.   In Glasgow there is a swim every Sunday evening in the Arlington Baths near Charing Cross.  Each year British Naturist Association run a weekend during April/May in Dunoon at which I host the famous Burns in the Buff.   Last year I organised in July a boat trip on the Forth which attracted much attention and we were blessed with the most fantastic warm evening.
So naturism is very much alive in Scotland.  And of course we have some lovely open spaces and beaches to get the kit off.
See you all in September.
Big Country pm me if you want info on Inchmurrin.

Yes but she is worth it. 
Mind take waterproofs and dress warm for Tattoo.  You can take off if too warm.   Of course just go naked.

Will pm my phone no and we may be able to meet up.

I was in Aberdeen at the Altens Thistle correctional facility a few weeks ago, you don't see many nudists down Union Street.
