In a bold twist on luxury travel, Miami’s much-anticipated Nude Cruise has officially set sail for the Caribbean, inviting hundreds of guests to enjoy a carefree, clothing-optional adventure at sea.
The cruise, operated by Bare Necessities Tour & Travel, offers a judgment-free, body-positive vacation experience that blends tropical luxury with the freedom of going au naturel. With a strict no-clothes policy in designated areas, the voyage caters to nudists, naturists, and open-minded travelers looking to unwind — literally — without the baggage of outfits.
“It’s not about shock value,” says Laura Banks, a spokesperson for the company. “It’s about freedom, acceptance, and community — in a stunning setting.”
- Duration: 7 nights
- Destinations: The Bahamas, St. Thomas, St. Maarten
- Activities: Nude beaches, pool parties, fitness classes, workshops, and formal “undress” dinners
- Dress Code: Clothing optional on deck, formal wear discouraged
While the ship follows international nudist guidelines, it maintains strict etiquette: no photography without consent, no suggestive behavior in public areas, and towels required for seating.
The cruise has seen record bookings, signaling growing demand for unconventional, experience-driven vacations that prioritize self-expression and community.
“This is our third time on the nude cruise,” said returning guest Michael O’Connell. “It’s the most relaxed we’ve ever felt on a vacation.”
With interest rising from travelers in Europe, South America, and Asia, Bare Necessities is planning expanded routes for 2026, including nude cruises through the Mediterranean and South Pacific.
For those tired of packing — this may just be the ultimate getaway.
