What is "euronat"

Wikipedia
Euronat

EuroNat was an organisation of European nationalist political parties, formed initially at the congress of the French National Front (FN) in Strasbourg on 30 March 1997. It had a loose organisational structure, and was in practice based on coordination by activities of the FN. The organisation failed to attract much support in Western Europe, as FN leader Jean-Marie Le Pen was more successful in gathering support in Eastern Europe. NordNat was an attempt to form a regional organisation by Nordic parties. As of the late 2000s, only the FN, BNP, ND, MS-FT, DN and NR parties were listed as members of EuroNat.

Parties that at one point were part of the organisation include;

  • Vlaams Blok (VB)

  • Coalition for Republic - Republican Party of Czechoslovakia (SPR-RSČ)

  • Republicans of Miroslav Sládek (RMS)

  • Croatian Party of Rights (HSP)

  • Patriotic National Alliance (IKL)

  • National Front (FN)

  • German People's Union (DVU)

  • Hellenic Front (EM)

  • Hungarian Justice and Life Party (MIÉP)

  • New Force (FN)

  • Tricolour Flame (MS-FT)

  • New Right (NR)

  • National Alliance (AN)

  • Greater Romania Party (PRM)

  • Serbian Radical Party (SRS)

  • Slovak National Party (SNS)

  • National Democracy (DN)

  • National Democrats (ND)

  • Sweden Democrats (SD)

Euronat (naturist resort)

Euronat is a naturist holiday resort near the CHM Montalivet naturist resort, in Grayan-et-l'Hôpital, France. After the success of CHM Montalivet, it was apparent that there was a need for even more capacity. Euronat was founded by Hubert Lacroix (1931-1995) in a pine forest 1 km away from the beach. This is reached on a boardwalk through protected dunes or by a roadway where there is parking near the beach. The whole area is naturist. Euronat opened in 1968-9. It is 335 ha in area making it the largest naturist holiday centre in Europe. It is licensed for permanent residence.

Most of the area is taken up with chalets but are reserved for caravanning, and 30 hectares for camping. It also has two mobile home park sections. It has a covered indoor heated swimming pool, a new outdoor pool, an outdoor slide pool, a large conference hall, and boasts a Thalassotherapy centre. The center includes fitness classes, a weight room with machines and free weights, although they are about 30 yrs old. There are services like massage, mud baths, seaweed treatments and the other latest beauty treatments.

Located near the camping section are basketball courts and tennis courts.

There are 25 shops in the shopping centre. These include a bakery, wine shop, a grocery store, a fish market, and a general merchandise shop. Among its cultural offerings, Euronat has had a strong connection with Francois Malkovsky (1889-1982), a proponent of ' free dance'. Also in the center is a pizzaria, seafood restaurant, French restaurant and ice cream stand. A few bars complete the center.

According to the center's bylaws, users must adopt total nudity in all parts of Euronat, including the shopping mall. The two supervised beaches are 1.5 km in total and have two helicopter pads, for air ambulance use.
