Lara Croft opens women-only beach in Italy

Though you may have briefly interpreted the presence of Lara's scantily-clad posse as proof that the next Tomb Raider game would be "Pikmin with babes," the ladies were in fact there to compete in "Miss Muretto," a beauty contest coinciding with the opening (or closing if you're a guy) of "Pink Beach." Don't worry, we're sure there's a nearby lookout point that's ideal for surveying Italy's finest beaches. If being a pervert isn't your thing, there's always the superb Tomb Raider: Anniversary to keep you occupied indoors.

"pikmin with babes" would be fantastic

You will never see women like that there unless they are promoting something.

Never thought I'd say this, but in my opinion, "Lara Croft" is the ugliest girl in that pic.
That deaf guy @ Jun 27th 2007 2:37PM
Took the words right outta my mouth Fernando. Gonna be creepy for the ladies getting to the beach with hordes of perverts and gawkers surrounding the perimeter.

Damnit. My pants!
Jon @ Jun 27th 2007 2:48PM
Karima is one of the most average Lara Crofts out there. Give me Rhona Mitre or Lucy Clarkson again.

The two on the left look like their in love.

Isn't a women-only beach like putting a lot of food on a table and let no one eat it?
Squall @ Jun 27th 2007 3:07PM
actually, in italy everyone has a right to have access to the sea. so the whole women-only thing is kinda dumb cos they would have to let men through anyway
Megaqwerty @ Jun 27th 2007 3:12PM
Yeah, I was thinking of reading Italian discrimination laws and seeing if I would like to sacrifice my dignity for a whole silo full of cash. But, I don't think I could afford the flight over.
But how is this smart advertising? I highly doubt that women constitute the bulk of Tomb Raider's target audience.

At least at a women-only beach they can blame the fish smell on the fish.
GunForHire @ Jun 27th 2007 3:17PM
Pictures like that are going to do NOTHING for helping keep men off this beach...
Jake @ Jun 27th 2007 3:20PM
worst. croft. ever. All the other chicks are hotter than her.
Rob Accomando @ Jun 27th 2007 3:23PM
I agree, Lara isn't the hottest one. Also, who would be there for a 'man only' beach? Mario? :o)
Chris @ Jun 27th 2007 3:26PM
@Hirsbrunner
You've never actually been with a woman have you?
FrankTheCrank @ Jun 27th 2007 4:06PM
Oh GOD!!!
Get me out of this cubey and with that girl in the red/white striped bikini. She's so hot.
Chris @ Jun 27th 2007 3:46PM
@14
That's disgusting. You fail.
Jim @ Jun 27th 2007 3:52PM
Karima Adebibe is the best (girl in the photo).
Boss Tempo @ Jun 27th 2007 3:59PM
BEAVER ABUSE!
Seriously, Lara looks like she just banged boobs with one of them and from the chick's expression on the far left, I'd say you found your winner.
Mr Khan @ Jun 27th 2007 4:01PM
"Seeing Lara Croft with all those women makes me want to buy a Tomb Raider game"
That's their angle, although i agree that Lara is the least hot of them, and not just because she's the only one mostly clothed
Hirsbrunner @ Jun 27th 2007 4:08PM
@Chris
Unfortunately, yes, I have.
Chris @ Jun 27th 2007 4:25PM
Y'know, if I were a woman looking for a quiet beach to sunbathe on, away from pervs an oglers, a woman-only beach would be the LAST place on earth I'd go.
That's like opening a dogs only catnip farm. You know who'll be looking over the fence.
Oh by the way, when's the next google earth pass over Italy? I've got some, er, research to do...
Abscissa @ Jun 27th 2007 4:35PM
Fucking feminazis...
rasgueado @ Jun 27th 2007 4:38PM
Que?
zwarrior @ Jun 28th 2007 6:04PM
The one in red is the finest, second being the one in rainbow. The blond in black has a nice butt and the blond in blue looks like she works out too much. The one in the far left is also hot but I think I'd be barking up the wrong tree, and I agree with the others, the Lara Croft should move off aside so we can see the other 3.
Diskoboy @ Jun 27th 2007 5:00PM
The girl in the solid red bikini, 2nd from the right, is the only hottie in the entire picture.
Which is kind of weird - Italy is overflowing with hotties.
ackmondual @ Jun 27th 2007 9:41PM
I'll take the one in the black bikini on the right. Second choice, the one all the way to the left. Yeah, I didn't really read the article. Just looked at the girlies
Dave @ Jun 29th 2007 10:33PM
I envy women so much. They're saturated with self-esteem. At least the ones on this beach are. We men can't AFFORD to avoid the ogling and whistles of the opposite gender. It doesn't happen very often to us. But when you're a woman, you have the luxury of knowing that you'll always be desired sexually. Lucky gals.

Good! My husband (who was a single father of two girls for eighteen years) supports a women’s only beach as well. Now I have an excellent reason to visit Italy (besides the great food). We live in South Beach (Miami, Florida) and both of us are disgusted at the number of perverts that roam the beach taking videos and pictures of young girls and women with out asking! Um, I wonder if this is a flagrant federal violation of a female’s right to privacy? I would love to lay in the sun topless but as an elementary school teacher, I can't afford to have a picture of my chest posted on the Internet! South Beach needs a women’s only beach too. We Americans love to import all things Italian (Starbucks, Pizza …) why not this???
