Summary
There are no designated "clothing-optional" beaches in Sarasota County, Florida, but the idea for a "Euro-style" beach was born after a group of friends visited a nude beach in another area. Their experiences led to the formation of The Suncoast Naturists, who are working to create a clothing-optional beach and are advocating for the economic benefits it could bring to the community.
