Naked On Lake Michigan
A group for those nudist who enjoy the beauty of Lake Michigan in their natural state. With miles and miles of pristine shoreline, we all find places to get naked and enjoy the sun and sand. Post your pics, tell of your latest trip, coordinate with other nudist to join you in your favorite spot.
Kemil Beach, Indiana Dunes
Return to DiscussionsKemil Beach has been mentioned several times throughout this Naked on Lake Michigan group. I thought it might be helpful to centralize some info regarding it here on a new thread specifically for this area.
Kemil Beach, itself, is a part of the Indiana Dunes National Lakeshore federal property; however, the area where most of us have found the best locations to get naked are West of the main Kemil Beach entrance which means you've left the federal land and entered Indiana State Park property.
National Park Service information is here: Kemil Beach at Indiana Dunes National Park
To be clear, nudity is not legal on this beach. However, I have seen others naked here many times, I have been nude there myself many times, and there is an online petition to designate a part of this beach as an official nude beach (Designate Kemil Beach at Indiana Dunes as an official nude beach).
Currently, it seems that most nude activity occurs back in the grass behind the beach; however, friends and I have laid out nude directly on the beach and just covered for passers-by. My wife has been openly topless in full view of beach-walkers without covering multiple times. I have heard of people being ticketed for nudity here, but I have never experienced this myself.
What a gorgeous November day! I had hoped that with it being so late in the season that there would be no one on the beach so I could lay out directly on the beach down by the water, but the beautiful weather brought everyone out of the woodwork. There was a steady stream of walkers up and down the beach, so I had to lay out back in the grass.
I ended up hooking up with a regular who I commonly see there, and we spent the day naked. 3 other guys ended up joining us, so we had a group of 5 naked guys just standing/sitting around talking and relaxing in the November sunshine. By the end of the day, I realized that I had actually gotten a little bit of a November Lake Michigan sunburn!
