Other potentially nude beaches are quite remote and, according to some reports, unsafe. Apart from them, there is a growing number of naturist clubs and resorts all around the country. They range from 100% naturist resorts to naturist friendly places where nudity depends on the guests staying at that time.

Their objective is to promote the practice and general acceptance of naturism and to represent naturism to local government and international organizations. There are four provincial associations:
