Daily news from the Canaries and the islands' biggest English language newspaper on-line

Bare necessities

The issue of nude sunbathing made headlines in Tenerife recently when the council at Granadilla de Abona appeared to be trying to ban the practise at La Tejita beach, though there was something of a u-turn when the matter was challenged with some stating that no council had the right to regulate what people wear on the beach.

But should there be some rules or a basic dress code for public beaches? How do you think nudism on Spanish beaches should be regulated?

Eugenia y Lucky, Puerto de la Cruz

My owner says my photo is much nicer than hers and we share the same opinion. We both think it is much ado about nothing. If someone wants to take his clothes off, why not? We don’t mind. My owner likes topless sunbathing and would not take everything off, but if someone does, who cares? We don’t and to be honest, I personally can’t understand these human beings, making trouble about something natural.
