Desnudo Naturist Resort: Skinny Dip Day – Barefest
Once a year people across the world celebrate the simple thrill of freedom by doing something daring, playful, and unforgettable — skinny dipping.
On Saturday, 5 September 2026, Desnudo is turning that moment into an all-day celebration of sunshine, music, connection, and after-dark adventure.
Expect a high-energy daytime pool party, incredible people, DJ Mandy on the decks, floating cocktails, body paint, and the kind of atmosphere that only happens when everyone decides to let go of the ordinary for a day.
And when the sun goes down… the vibe shifts.
The pool party evolves into a Desnawty lifestyle evening where the energy becomes more seductive, more playful, and the connections a little more adventurous.
This is one of those events you will talk about long after the weekend ends.
From 10:00
The day begins with a vibrant skinny dip pool party where music, sunshine and laughter set the tone.
DJ Mandy will be keeping the poolside energy flowing with an uplifting daytime set while guests enjoy cocktails, floating loungers and a relaxed social atmosphere.
Throughout the afternoon expect plenty of fun with:
• Floating pool games and challenges
• Body paint & glitter station
• Poolside cocktails and Mojitos

The highlight of the afternoon.
Everyone gathers for the official Desnudo Skinny Dip moment.
A countdown, music pumping, champagne spray and then everyone jumps into the pool together.
It’s wild.
It’s liberating.
And it’s a moment you won’t forget.

As the afternoon drifts into golden hour, the atmosphere becomes more relaxed and social.
