AN ESTIMATE INTO THE EXTRA INCOME FROM TOURISM IF SOME NUDIST RESORTS AND PUBLIC NATURIST BEACHES ARE ESTABLISHED.

Croatia generates approximately 15% to 20% of its income from tourism through nudist tourists alone (http://www.naturistholiday.info/a/1011/The_Top_Five_Naturist_Destinations_in_Europe.aspx) Given that Malta has a warmer climate than Croatia if not nicer beaches, we can generate similar figures here. A conservative 10% extra tourists for Malta mean that we could attract at least 150,000 more tourists pa. However if Malta advertised itself as an alternative Mediterranean nudist destination this figure will indeed be much higher. This would result in extra income for all of us! Even if one takes Muslim Turkey, this country has already established a foreigner only nudist hotel (http://www.independent.co.uk/travel/news-and-advice/turkey-gets-first-nudist-hotel-1954573.html) and has several unofficial nude beaches. In just one naturist zone, Spain has over 2,000 apartments & a 4 star hotel just for the sole use of nudists! In Cap D'Age, France one can even bank, shop and dine in the nude (http://gofrance.about.com/cs/nudismnaturism/a/capdagde.htm). We see no reason why Malta should shy away from the nudist euro! The times have changed! A relatively short time ago, many people thought that divorce would not be accepted! Today we are thinking of giving more rights to minorities and possibly introduce gay marriage! Nudism has got nothing to do with sex, so why not accept it for the benefit of all?!
