In Pasco County, Florida, Lake Como and Caliente Club represent different aspects of naturism: Lake Como embraces traditional nudist values, while Caliente is known for wild swinger parties. At Lake Como, residents strive to dispel the misconception that their lifestyle is sexually oriented, while Caliente has shifted its focus from traditional family-oriented nudity to attracting outsiders with sexual events. Despite their differences, both communities share the common goal of normalizing naturism.
