Water Minister Tim Holding says he wont be endorsing a nudist beach for Melbourne anytime soon.
"We are always open to new ideas,” Mr Holding said. "But I have to say I won't be frequenting any nudist beach.
"I think the slogan has always been if you've got it flaunt it and I am willing to recognise my limitations and I won't be encouraging the spread of nudism in anyway across Victoria.”
Does Melbourne need a nude beach? If so, where should it be?
His comments follow calls to legalise a city beach for nudists frustrated by the long commute to the state’s four nude beaches.
Victoria has four nude beaches in Mornington, Torquay and Werribee, but the Australian Naturist Federation claims they are too far away for citypeople who want something closer to home.

In The Buff is a community site, which aims to promote the naturist cause. Members are a friendly community of natursts, that enjoy practising naturism either at home, on the beach, on holiday, or anywhere the fancy takes them. They may have been naturists for a week, a year, or their whole life. What brings all the naturists here together is the fun and friendship.
