Larger holiday centres may have swimming pools, sports pitches, an entertainment program, kids' clubs, restaurants and supermarkets.

The usage and definition of these terms varies geographically and historically. The International Naturist Federation explains: Д®ach country has its own kind of naturism, and even each club has its own special character, for we too, human beings, have each our own character which is reflected in our surroundings. Current research has begun to explore this complex relationship. For various social, cultural, and historical reasons, the lay public, the media, and many contemporary naturists and their organisations have or present a simplified view of the relationship between naturism and sexuality.

Some recent studies show that naturism can help grow self-esteem, and thus have a positive impact on having a well-balanced sexuality, too.
