In a recent survey, several women revealed that they let their hair down and get a bit risqué while on vacation.

A survey conducted by the dating site MissTravel.com showed some revealing statistics about the behavior of 30,000  female British members. The users were asked ten questions about their  sexual behaviors during summer vacations, the Daily Mail reports.

The survey found that women are more likely to let their wild side out during vacation. Women traveling abroad are more likely to have casual sex than when they're home.

As reported by the Daily Mail, CEO of Misstravel.com, Brandon Wade, said, 'It is clear that women become much more sexually liberated when they are out of their comfort zone."

'Once they get into their bikini or travel to an exciting new city our members' thoughts turn to sex. This has been true for many centuries - travel is a great aphrodisiac. It shakes up your normal routine and makes everyone, not just women, much more sexually adventurous," Wade said.

More than 40 percent of the women under the age of 30 admitted to having a one-night stand on vacation.  Thirty percent said that they like to spend their summer vacation nights getting close with a hookup in outdoor locations like the beach.

"Almost one in three of our members have had sex on a beach - this seems a very natural thing to do when you are on holiday and you have met someone exciting. But I think the same girls would be far more reluctant to have sex outdoors when they were back in Britain," Wade said.

The survey also asked how many partners women had during a week vacation. Ten percent revealed that they hooked up with five or more lovers within a weeklong trip. Most (35%) said that they only had sexual encounters with one partner. Eleven percent had four partners, 19 percent had three and a quarter had two sexual partners.

When asked where they find these hookups, most (48%) said they pick up men at nightclubs or bars. A quarter responded that they find men at hotels. Others find their potential flings along beaches or theme parks.

When asked about specific favorite locations and types of men, 33 percent of British women said that they find Italians the sexiest, but 40 percent would choose Greece as their go-to romantic vacation spot.

MissTravel.com is a site that connects wealthy men who are looking for a travel partner, with beautiful women who are looking for a free vacation. The site began in the UK in early 2013 and already has 50,000 members.
