NEARLY half of Spanish women have gone topless at the beach.

Some 4.1 out of 10 female Spaniards have no problem stripping off at least their bikini tops, being beaten only by their Austrian counterparts.

An overwhelming 91% of Spaniards also feel skimpy speedo-style briefs are acceptable beach-wear for men, compared to a more reserved 40% of Norwegians.

When it comes to stripping off completely, Germans are continuing to dominate the Costa del Sol’s nudist resorts.

NOT just content with being the best footballers on the planet, the Germans also top the full-on beach-nudity league.

According to Expedia’s annual ‘Flip Flop report’, Germans were the most likely to sunbathe fully nude for the third year running.

Tied with the Austrians, 28% admitted to having spent a day at the beach without any clothing.
