ISLAND OF RAB, Croatia — Three quarters of a century after a "royal skinny dip" made it a pioneering nudist destination, Croatia is striving to attract more of the world's growing army of "nakationers".

"At Kandarola nudists can find their own piece of paradise, with peace and a little space just for themselves without being disturbed," Nedjeljko Mikelic, head of the tourist board on the northern island of Rab, told AFP.
