How naturists celebrate Christmas (and navigate cooking dinner naked)
Share:
Naturist Karie Jane turned her ex’s holiday home into a nudist resort. A naturist resort owner has said she celebrates Christmas with Twister and dinner cooked in nothing but a napkin. Karie Jane, 57, a former theatre producer from Derbyshire, first visited a nudist beach in 2000, inspiring her and her then-husband to embrace the lifestyle and purchase a property in Costa Calma, Fuerteventura, the following year.

Following their divorce in 2013, she relocated permanently to the island, moving into one of their five apartments on the property while running it as a regular holiday destination, and in 2020 she transformed it into the BHH Naturist Resort. At Christmas, Karie loves hosting guests and this year will be her largest festive celebration ever with 10 unclad guests – with whom she plans to have a picnic, sail and go dolphin-spotting, all in the nude, before a New Year’s Eve midnight skinny dip.

Karie believes being a naturist is a “simple lifestyle” that has made her less materialistic, particularly over the festive period, helping her realise “it’s not all about gifts”. Karie told PA Real Life: “I might don a Santa hat at Christmas if I’m lucky, but I won’t be wearing anything else!.

“I don’t wear a Christmas jumper, my skin is more than suitable!. “When I go back to England for Christmas, having to put on so many layers of clothes, I feel restricted. “Here, we might have a couple of napkins on us so we don’t get gravy in places where gravy shouldn’t be.
