Episode Details

In the heart of New River, Arizona, Shangri-La—a family-owned nudist park since 1959—hosts over 150 full-time residents who’ve traded stress for sun and freedom. With a five-year waitlist for permanent spots, it’s not just about the pool (which buzzes especially for International Skinny-Dip Day), but about shedding societal expectations to embrace authenticity.
