I haven't made it to a nude beach...it might be kinda fun if it isn't 100' or so. That said, I believe it would be somewhat difficult to beat the pool, pool deck and hot tub at the resort.
Seriously, there is nothing to compare to the feeling of bathing naked immersed in the earth's greatest wonder, the ocean. No man-made, chemically-laden monstrosity could compare!To you maybe. Me, I don't like to go into the ocean. I'll take a pool over a natural body of water any day. I know what is in the water in a pool. Who knows what lurks in the ocean?
I am living on a tropical paradise island with hundreds of clean and beautiful and under-crowded sandy beaches - but none of them is clothing-optional. We have a very nice swimming pool in the condo where I live - but again not clothing-optional. No nudist clubs or other nudist facilities are available. Often when I swim in the pool I am alone there and itching to remove my swimsuit - but too risky in a country where any form of public nudity is strictly prohibited. So I do all my naked water sports when I travel overseas to more nudist friendly locations. I enjoy living where I live - but when I read here about how some TN members have not one but several nudist facilities within 1-2 hours drive I get jealous ...
Beach is great IF it is a sanctioned beach. We've been to Haulover Beach in FL and Orient Beach in St. Martin and enjoyed both. But here in MA we only have tolerated beaches. Which means if the park ranger is having a bad day, you are about to have a bad day getting harassed/fined/threatened with being put on the sex offender registry. No thanks, I'll stick with the resorts and their pools here.
I try to get to the beach once a month at least, but my yard is completely private, so I am always naked outside. Pool is still a bit too cold for me, but the hot tub is just right. I enjoy being naked absolutely everywhere I can be. Hate, hate, hate clothing!
Yes ;-)
I'm lucky in that a nudist friend has an acreage partially bounded by a small, slow moving, river with a small beach. I went skinny dipping there several times last year and hope to much more this year as well.
I also like to go to the year-round pool at the Willamettans nudist resort I belong to.
And when I can, I love going to Little Beach on Maui.
