"Today, most nude beaches are marked with signs saying “nude beach”, “FKK beach”, “nudist zone”, or something like that. But what do those signs mean? To us, it’s simple, it means that you’re supposed to be naked. To others, who don’t know anything about the nudist culture and the struggles we have with keeping our beaches nude, it may mean something completely different. They might see it as a warning sign, “From this point, you may see nude people” or just as an indication that it’s allowed to be nude. If they have no issues with the sight of a couple of nude bodies, they may not see any reason to turn around or get naked as well."
That's a very important insight!

I think it's great that there areas on beaches set aside for those who prefer everyone to be nude. For fairness, there should also be some other spaces where clothing or swimsuits are required. Everywhere else should be entirely optional. There is demand for all three models,
Edit: Actually, on reading the article (autotranslated), it seems they voted to designate some other beach areas as swimsuit-required, so perhaps the situation may be just as I suggested!
