Florida county to spend funds to promote nude tourism


Pasco County, Fla., home to a dozen or so nudist colonies, will fund promotions to attract sun-worshipping Europeans who don't want to bother dressing up – or dressing at all, for that matter.

County commissioners voted on Tuesday to approve funding to help develop a "Eurobird" season in July and August, an otherwise slow time for visitors, Tampa Bay Online reports.

The central Florida county has a history of clothing-optional hangouts dating back 70 years. It is so rife with nudists, it has spawned an organization, Pasco Area Naturist Development Association – or PANDAbare for short – to promote the naturist lifestyle.

"We will be focusing on France, Germany, Netherlands, and Britain," PANDAbare president Paul Brenot told the local ABC News affiliate. "There are over 19 million practicing nudists in there. So heck, if we just garner a hundredth of one percent, that's a lot of tourism coming in."
