Beachgoers in Vera, Spain, may have caught an eyeful on Sunday as a
large group of exhibitionists went for a swimsuit-free dip in the
Mediterranean Sea in a bid to break the skinny dipping world record. The 729 nude swimmers were apparently successful, surpassing the previous world record set by 506 festivalgoers last year, local news sources report.gu According to the Europa Press, about 600 people were expected at the
event. Vera Mayor José Carmelo Jorge was pleased with the turnout,
calling the mass nude swim a “tremendous success.” Organized by the town of Vera and the Spanish Naturism Federation,
the swimmers showed up to Playa El Playazo beach in throngs Sunday
morning before disrobing and taking a collective dip in the
Mediterranean around noon. Though funds raised during the event will be
donated to charity, the record-breaking attempt was meant to bolster
tourism in the small resort town of Vera, which is home to several naturist beaches and residential zones.
