naturists
Bare-bodied sun seekers
Naturists are people who practice nudity, typically in designated social settings like beaches, resorts, or camps.
The philosophy emphasizes that nakedness is natural and healthy, distinct from exhibitionism or sexuality.
Naturism is more common as a term in British English; Americans tend to say nudists.
The beach was popular with naturists.
