Sardinia earns its place on any naturist holiday shortlist. Sardinia has the clearest water in Italy and a string of remote coves where clothes-free swimming is the quiet norm.
The draw is simple: turquoise water and white sand, remote coves down dirt tracks, naturist campsites in the south and long, warm autumn. Start with Piscinas dunes and Porto Ferro and work outwards.
