Uruguay

In Uruguay, it is allowed for women to be naked from the waist up in all beaches. If someone complains to the coast guard, the latter will ask the woman to cover, if she refuses she must abandon the beach. This is only true for beaches with coast guard, in other cases in the absence of competent authority, almost everything is done.
