Worldwide Guide to Naked Places Paperback – December 18, 2009

I have no problem with the packaging for the photos. However, the publishers have not kept their listing of nude beaches up to date.

I've read a number of these reviews and they have been accurate. When I've run into folks online looking for naked places, I've sent along information from this book as well. Useful and playful.

My 5 star rating is based on what this book WAS not what it is today.I travel frequenetly - much of it as a travel writer. At one time, this guide was useful. I've been using the 2002 edition. But if the last time this was updated was 2009, I can almost guarantee that much of it is out of date. It appears that the publishers have lost interest or their efforts were not profitable.That said, even if specific areas mentioned in the book are closed or changed, even an out of date volume provides a sense of areas where "Naked Places" can be found. The writers did a great job. So use the book for some keywords for a Google search and you'll probably find it useful.And, if you are like me and you prefer paper over computer screens, Naked Places is a great place to start your travel planning.

I have heard bad things about this publisher - and he simply seems to copy erroneous information from the internet and from Michael Boyd's old Naked Places guides (which are better, even though out of date). The whole thing reads as a scam and feels badly amateur. Don't waste your money!
