Guide to Nude Beaches &
Recreation - Dr. Leisure

Dr. Leisure has become the number one provider of information on nude beaches
and recreation on the internet with links to other informational sites
dealing with family nudism and naturism all over the world. Dr. Leisure
is committed to having the most comprehensive information on clothing optional
beaches and resorts on the net. If you are, or want to become a nudist/naturist
this is the site for you. It may be a cliché, but nude is
natural, and there is no better way to experience the human condition.
Get in touch with yourselves and others with the help of Dr. Leisure and
the information on this web site.
Dr. George R. Harker wrote the book on public nude
beaches. The classic work entitled Creation
and Management Guide to public clothing optional beaches and parks
was first published in 1990 by the American Sunbathing Association. An
extensively plagiarized version was published in 2000 by the American Association
of Nude Recreation.
Dr. Harker has been called as an expert witness
or been involved in most every case involving nude recreation in the last
fifteen years.
