About the camp

The camp is a Prettig Bloot location, a label agreed with the naturist organisation NFN Open & Bloot around the values safety, freedom, respect, openness and hospitality, so recreating without clothing is the normal thing here rather than a tolerated exception. Members of Geminat, of sister clubs and of NFN are welcome for a day visit or a stay; grown-ups who are not members yet can come with an NFN introduction ticket, and members may invite friends and family. Everything else is easygoing: the host meets you at the gate and picks your pitch, the Pinkestal has warm water, a fridge, a freezer and a wood stove, and the social day turns on the terrace and the boulodrome, where a game starts around 16:00 if the weather allows.

  • Prettig Bloot naturist ground with the host living on site
  • three free showers with hot and cold water
  • electricity at every pitch
  • a short ride from the North Sea naturist beaches
