Barcelona, a photo a day

A nude beach


Yes, public nudity is legal in Spain. No, you can’t walk naked through Barcelona anymore. Or cycle.

In Barcelona public nudity used to be regarded as a recognized right, although there have been successful prosecutions for public nudity even there and a local ordinance by the local council in May 2011 empowers the authorities to impose a fine for nudity and even being bare chested.

Basically, you want to be naked, stay on the nude beaches. No worries, there are plenty around!

  4. public nudity was legal in our town, too, until recently when the law was amended. now it is illegal to be nude in public in the town center. personally, i'm keeping my clothes on even when i reach the edge of town.
