RE: Nude infront of clothed and non nudists.
Any of us who routinely use CO beaches have by definition been nude in nude tolerant textile company. We probably have not even thought about it as long they don't care we don't. Baring all in front of friends and relatives who may be disapproving requires a level of bravado most us just do not have. Even if they know that you are a nudist and may say that they don't mind most of wouldn't feel comfortable. It would be different if you went as a group to a CO beach where some others went nude then I almost certainly would go nude though would feel more self conscious than with total strangers.
