SPAIN

From: richard@West.Sun.COM (Richard M. Mathews)

  Contrary to most opinion, nudism is not illegal in Spain.  Total nudity
  is not recommended in the many town or village beaches around the large
  (in European terms) Spanish coast, although topfree is usual as it is in
  inland major town swimming-pools.  In the case of total nudity, police
  officials just can ask you to put something on when somebody else claims
  to be disturbed, which only happens in the crowded and urban beaches.

  Accurate information on any area can be obtained from:
