Where I live is a tourist attraction, our modest resort gets quite a few overseas visitors every year. Naturist holidays are a fairly "normal" thing in Europe, and they look for same when they come here.

That sounds interesting. Something we as normal South Africans don't normally do....or are we also changing?

Well, we have about 3000 visitors a year (that stays over) 1500 dayvisitors a year, and about 400 First time visitors per year. (2022 Figures) most of these are South Africans. From talking to the guests, some of them have been coming here for more than 10 years for holidays, but for most not even their kids, close friends, nobody knows they come here, they just "go camping in Dinokeng" once in awhile on a weekend and leave the kids at gramma's house. :o)
