Nudist Day at Inch Beach

Nudist Day at Inch Beach

Things were free and easy in West Kerry last Sunday so to speak, as a group of naturists from Kerry, Cork and Waterford came together at Inch Strand to let it all hang out, as they celebrated World Naturism Day on one of the county's most beautiful and popular beaches.
The event, which takes place every year at various beauty spots around the country, is organised by the Irish Naturists Association who believe that nudity should be celebrated and that displaying the human body in public is a natural right.
"We had a bit of a slow start in Inch this year because of the weather" explained President of the Irish Naturists Association, Pat Gallagher.
"We always try to do something in Kerry to celebrate World Naturism Day each year, we encourage people to come together on designated beaches and enjoy the freedom nudity affords."
"We like the freedom to express ourselves and to be at one with nature" Pat explained.
Ireland is the only European country that does not have officially designated nudist beaches and public nudity can be considered a offense, even if one is seen naked on private land.
