Man went on UK’s only nude cruise and said there was one ‘golden rule’ everyone knew to follow

A man who attended the UK's only naked cruise has revealed all, including one key rule all passengers on board abide by.

While some folks head on 'spicy' cruises where signs such as upside-down pineapples suggest you're up for sexual shenanigans, this naked cruise is actually far more PG, if you can believe it.

The naked cruise, which travels alongside the River Exe estuary in Devon, is simply a three-hour trip where naturism is celebrated, and it's been going on for the past 13 years now.

While there naturally might be an assumption that nakedness leads to sex, there's certainly no hotwifing or cuckolding or any other strange sex trends going on during the boat trip, at least.

Rachel Wick, 50, a local authority administrator who has organised the annual boat trip alongside her partner Nigel since 2012, told the Sun: “It’s really sad that a large percentage of the population equate being naked only with sex - it’s not.

“If they came to our event, they would see it’s clearly not what it’s about.

“If somebody misbehaves, they will be on our banned list. Not that it’s ever happened, but we’re always mindful that this has to be a safe environment because you can feel quite vulnerable when you haven’t got your clothes on.

“One of the things I love about it is you can’t tell from looking at all of us whether we are rich or poor, working or retired. When you can’t judge people’s status, we’re all on a level.

“People think you have to be beautiful, but we're all normal people of different shapes and sizes.”

While people might meet their soulmate during their three-hour trip, they'll have to save any of the fun stuff until after the cruise has finished, as it's something of a golden rule that it remains a safe space for everyone on board.

Nigel added: "The nudist world is a real mix of people, from prison officers to barristers and doctors.

“It is the sense of freedom and being relaxed in your own body that draws people in. It’s a very friendly environment.

“If we go to a hotel, people generally don’t go out, they stay all day.

“We have never had any trouble at any event. It’s an older group, and if anybody started a fight, they’re likely going to break a hip.”

For those of you interested, the trip costs just £22 and also includes a free hot pasty.
