Nudist Travel Agencies
What travel agencies are you aware of that arrange nudist travel? There's one that's called Bare Necessities, right? I will look, but if you have a link, please send it to me privately. Also, of course, if you know of others, please email those links, too. I really need a winter getaway to some place warm. It's been a stressful year!

Thanks!
Why not just google search nudist or naturist travel.
I am, but that doesn't give me members' experiences. I found one, Castaways Travel. It occurred to me that I should look at the Florida Panhandle, too. I wish there was something similar on the Texas Gulf Coast, although that's a long way away from me, too. Texas is a very big place, of course. I'm going to look at AZ places, too. New Mexico doesn't seem to have any resorts.
You really are better off picking a place, make your own
reservations for accommodations at a nude place and book your own
flights and car rental. If you're looking for Bare Necessities or
Castaway to book something that's low end ... you're gonna be
disappointed. BN deals in cruises mostly and Castaway deals with
high end resorts. There was a naturist travel agency that did deal with mid range resorts and clubs but they are no longer in business; Internaturally Travel. Do yourself a favor and do the research yourself
... you'll safe yourself time and money.
I don't use travel agents either but if what you are looking for is
some sort of group travel, check out some of the bigger naturist
groups. For instance, British Naturism organizes several
trips each year to assorted destinations, Bev Price (from AANR)
organizes nude rafting trips through the Grand Canyon, the Naturist
Society promotes its own naturist festivals, someone at Bare Oaks
(one of the larger Canadian clubs) is organizing a trip to Cuba -
and in the past there was a trip to France. I have seen some
of the non-landed groups plan trips to sunny destinations in
winter.
If I was planning a naturist holiday somewhere, I'd probably start
at the International Naturist Federation. They list member
organizations from around the world and once you link to those you
have info for most of the organized naturist clubs within those
countries. It's a great way to find out info for Australia,
France, South Africa, Chile, Israel, Slovenia and so much more.
Once you know where you want to go you just book a flight,
buy a guidebook and make a reservation at the club you want to
visit. Done.
Also, and I cannot stress this enough, join the organization within
your own country. If you are American, join AANR or the
Naturist Society and actually read the publications you'll receive.
There are lots of travel ideas in there. Jim, I know you're a member but I thought I'd throw this in for anyone else reading for info.
Hopefully you find something that strikes your fancy.

That was very helpful, Karen, and I am a member of AANR SW. I had totally forgotten about INF for some reason. I am working on the state or local travel/non-landed groups, too, and I hope to start one for my own area (the Texas Panhandle). The closest ones I am aware of now are Albuquerque and Austin.

I might actually do a cruise, if it's not too loud and too busy. The problem for me is that none of their cruises originate off of the Gulf Coast, like Houston or Galveston...only the Gulf Coast of FL, if there.
I have another idea, too, for FL or France. I belong to a textile travel club, and they offer 3-4 day trips to Orlando and hundreds of other places yearly. I would take their trip and then just extend the vacation, rent a car, and go where I please on 'my own time' after their trip or weekend getaway and take a later flight home.
Jim, flights is part of the challenge most all have doing BN cruises unless your in driving distance of the Florida ports. Here in the polar north it's recommended to fly out at least a day early if not two in case of flight cancellation or delay. That means a hotel or resort stay pre-cruise if no flight issues. We envy those that live near the ports and can just jump on the boat. It cost us another $1k for the trip just for flights and the extras.

We flew in one day early for our first nude cruise in 2013 and got
the last flight out of Boston before the airport shut down due to a blizzard, so it
is two days early in winter for us now. We met up with people in
our first port on that cruise that missed the ship and were just
getting on.

I know, huh?! Texas is a big place, but if more nudist cruises would port in Gavleston or Houston, then I could at least get there cheaper and more comfortably by air. With my disabilities, I would always leave couple of days early, if I was going to FL or abroad. Just the flight there might kill me. JK. It could put me in significant pain, though.
I'm pretty sure flights and trips to Mexico would be as easy for me.
