So sad to see a once fantastic nude beach disappear (Davis Park)
Due to the Fire Island National Seashore ban on nudity back on 2012 as a result of Sandy, my beloved Davis Park nude beach is no more. I know Lighthouse got shut down (horrible) but I hadn't visited the 2 other great nude beaches- Davis Park and Smiths Point. I still haven't visited Smiths Point but I'm imagining that it suffered the same fate as Lighthouse and Davis Park. How sad. Some of my best nude beach days (and my very first) were at Davis Park. Below is a pic I took when I hiked down there on Friday. This exact section would normally have hundreds of nudists on a beautiful day like Friday.

It's sad that they can use the damage from a hurricane to end the long standing nude use of a beach.

How true! It is regretful that such an innocent simple pleasure can so easily be taken away. I've seen pix & heard stories but unfortunately, I never got to visit there. If only I had discovered this wonderful life style a little sooner....
