Recommendations for Koh Samui

I had no idea, but will have a look, even participate, when I have a chance.

I thought public nudity is not only prohibited, but also not culturally accepted. In my experience, most guests in gay saunas change under towel.

A high percentage of the Thai population live in some very remote areas as I'm sure you know - sometimes nestled in thick jungle settings where nude swimming and even bathing naked outdoors are commonplace.

Being naked "outdoors" in a secluded and/or private setting is acceptable in Thai culture as long as it's being done mindfully and not offending others. Being naked at a public beach which is not private or secluded is a no-no.

Fortunately, for us, SEX is another element of Thai culture that's influenced heavily by their connection with "Nature" - where most Thais are totally uninhibited when it comes to getting naked, even with a complete stranger during sex, but blush the minute you try to hold their hand in "Public".
