By “Spas”, do you mean a hot tub, a sauna, or a day spa? “Spa” can be any or all of the three. None of those things do you HAVE to be nude for. I would recommend being nude, but you don’t have to. I get a little leary anytime someone states that you HAVE to be nude. In a day spa, if you are just getting a mani/pedi, there is no real reason to get nude. But if you are getting facials, or body treatments, it does make sense as access to the body is unincumbered when nude, and some of the treatments may contain ingredients that could stain clothing. Hot tubs and saunas do not require the person to be nude, but then again neither does showering! The process just works alot better when you are nude. I used to be a member of a gym, and they had a coed sauna, located between the mens and womens locker rooms. The sign on the door stated that swimwear or a towel must be worn while in the sauna. One time I wore a towel in the sauna, and found out later there was a complaint at the front desk…I dunno?
I do insist my friends go nude in my spa. I explain that the chemicals and hot water will shred the clothes they might wear and those shreds get in the filtering system.
Any clothing, including swim costumes, that have gone through a washing machine will carry phosphates from the detergent that don’t get rinsed out. Enough of these contaminate a hot tub, it will throw off the ph balance and allow algae to grow.

LikeDislikeThree good answers so far. The filtering system of swimming pools also benefit from people not wearing costumes just as Tomr describes. The phosphates that rabbitnbunny speaks of will also adversely affect the chemical treatments used in swimming pools. But first and foremost is that costumes are breading grounds for germs in a way that the skin they cover isn’t. This is especially true in a Sauna where the costume absorbs sweat instead of it evaporating.
