Summary
In 1972, Sergio Cossu discovered nudism during his solo holiday in Santa Teresa Gallura, leading to his involvement in the Italian naturist association and efforts to develop Sardinia into a nudist tourism destination. Despite obstacles and opposition, nudist beaches have been legalized and established in Italy, with naturists advocating for acceptance and challenging outdated laws.
