Here here for Ancient Greece. And somehow they still seem to keep that basic attitude in tact. From what I can tell, there are few countries where nude recreation is as widely accepted as going nude on a Greek beach. Definitely a healthy attitude on what is/should be perfectly normal behavior.

Sorry Nudkin, your information is absolutely not correct. Nudity is most certainly not normal or acceptable on Greek beaches, barring a relatively few exceptions where it has become established by foreigners. For places where nudity in public is common and widely accepted even where not officially sanctioned you need to go to countries like Spain, France, Croatia, Germany, Portugal.

I stand corrected...
