X Nudism has a heavy emphasis on naked girls at the beach but there's also a few other styles of content to be found: 1. public flashing (not on the beach), 2. indoor galleries, and 3. a small bit of public masturbation and hardcore (on the beach). Considering the site has such a narrow "beach" niche, they've done a fine job of compiling a respectable amount of material - 368+ galleries and 125+ isn't bad at all. Of course you should take note that the video clips are quite short, at only around 1-2 minutes each. You can probably rip through a whole bunch of them in one sitting.
Let me break down the content sections in some detail, which should help explain what the site has to offer. The tour alludes to hidden voyeur content which is a bit misleading, in a lot of the content it's clear the girls are well aware of the camera. Here are the content categories and what they contain: "Candid Shots" (pics) and "Candid Videos" feature nude beach style action of naked girls sunbathing, swimming, or frolicking on the beach. Many times there's more than one girl in the shot. "Beach Videos" is more of the same, I'm couldn't really tell any difference between the vids here and the ones in Candid Videos. "Public Pic" and "Public Video" are girls nude in public places that aren't beaches. Lots of trench coats and sneaky flashing can be found in that section. "Exclusive" is picture galleries on the beach where nude ladies pose directly for the camera. "Nu Show" is indoor and outdoor pics of girls really showing off their bodies especially their pussies. Finally the only non-softcore sections are "Hot Pics" and "Hot Video" where girls masturbate and have boy/girl sex on the beach (FYI, the Hot Video section has all of 15 videos that are only 1-2 minutes each like all the others).
The quality of the pictures varies quite a bit, the worst of which are hidden-cam like at around 700x500. Those are greatly outnumbered by higher quality pics of around 768x1024 or larger. Overall I think the quality is very good, especially for a public nudity site. The same goes for the videos which are sharp DivX AVIs. The one annoyance is that they play in an in-browser player to start with. Only after that window is open is it possible to download and play them in a normal media player.
I'm not a fan of the design of the site. Some of the categories seem redundant and also the only way to browse each section is by date. There are only 6 galleries (or vids) per page which makes it a pain in the ass to get at older content. And if you leave a section and return later, you'll have to scroll through page after page once again just to get back to the spot where you left off.
Even though there's a bit of hardcore and masturbation in the "Hot Pics and Vids" sections and some generic public flashing content, this site is still just for softcore beach nudity fans. Everything in addition to the beach stuff is simply supporting material that adds some variety. There isn't enough of anything else except beach nudity to justify a membership. The $29.95/mo price certainly does seem expensive but I suppose it's possible to charge that much since it's such a focused niche.
