Gay Naturism in The United Kingdom
A community website www.nakedmates.co.uk offers social networking for men looking to connect with other men also interested in male naturism. Naturism is a component of meetings of a UK grouping of the Radical Faeries called Albion Faeries. In addition a number of naturist swims organised by heterosexuals and documented by NUFF have a strong gay following.
Websites such as Meetup contain listings for a number of gay naturist groups in the UK. These include massage and tantric massage sessions and visits to naked clubbing venues.
A number of gay naturist organisations have existed in the United Kingdom. Gymnos offered social get-togethers for members only in and around London, and regular nude swimming (closed down in March 2010) together with Gay London Swimmers (GLS) at a public swimming pool in Camberwell, South London (closed down in 2009). Certain nudist beaches have areas which are informally used by gay men.
