Clothing-optional cruise part of 'nakationing" boom

Well this certainly makes packing easier.

Sunscreen will be essential but clothing optional on a cruise that sets sail from Port Everglades in November. Up to 3,000 people will float through the Caribbean in their birthday suits for seven nights.

Want to soak up the sun in the buff? Want to dance topless in the disco? Go for it.

The cruise, organized by Bliss Management of Coral Springs, is part of a growing clothing-optional tourism industry — everything from cruises and organized tours to about 250 resorts and clubs, according to the American Association for Nude Recreation in Kissimmee.
