Plot

Critical reception
Monthly Film Bulletin said "The 'story' is ludicrously naive, and the nudist content, filmed at the North Kent Sun Club, Orpington, consists of the usual lazing around and swimming, plus a slight novelty in a nudist beauty contest: it should be pointed out, however, that the entrants in the contest are filmed in close-up, so that judging is, apparently, on facial beauty alone."
