  when traveling, I make it a point to find really isolated spots where I never see anyone.  Or I swim out far enough that I can take off a suit underwater and hold it while I swim.  But this is a the beauty of having a private cottage on a lake to visit!

  I don't think it's wise to go nude at a non-nude beach; but I think it's time that each state open up areas where you can go nude and post a sign saying clothing otional so that no one is surprised. I live in New Jersey and I go to Gunnison Beach. I am not sure how much of the beach is open for nude sunbathing / swimming, but it's the only place to go in the state. I am sure that there is more than 100 miles of beach in the state, and Gunnison is the only place.
  The park has limited parking space and on weekends the lot fills by 9 AM. It's a shame they don't have parking areas (even if you have to pay) in the general area with a bus to shuttle you to and from the beach.
  There are some areas along the beach where no home are, example between Loch Arbor and Asbury Park, between Manasquan and Brielle. Find a parking spot in either of these towns and walk to those areas should be permitted.
  We also have Island State Park south of Seaside Heights. It has a few miles of beach, they should open 1/4 of it to nudity at the south end.
  I am sure other states have areas that can be opened up for nude sunbathing.

  [quote]I have been to a lot of nude beaches and have been nude on non-nude beaches. While my purpose for being nude on the non-nude beaches is not to offend those that are on the beach (I try not to be right in their face about it) I also feel that we, as nudists, have to stop hiding in resorts and secluded areas but come out and make ourselves known. We do exist and we should have areas (marked if need be) where we can be nude. To accomplish this goal we often have to push the envelope a bit.     Being nude should not be a crime[/quote]

  There are a few "legal", a few "tolerated" and even some "traditionally" naked beaches on Long Island NY.  Recently, we were at a traditionally naked beach on Fire Island where isolated couples and singles have been nude for near ever... however this trip, a park ranger stopped by and advised us that we were in an area "technically" we are to be clothed.  Even with multiple enforcement angencies we always see driving up and down the beach this is the first time anyone has said anything in the 20 plus years we have been going there.  The ranger was very cool gave us some pointers and told us to enjoy the rest of the day.  I think that the problem besides the obvious... is that there are just lots more people everywhere and as noted previously it only takes one to complain and make your day not so pleasant.

  Beach

  Sep 11, 2011

  I live near a beach that was part of a state park. The very far end of the beach that wasn't easly accessable was used by a small number of  nudist. The state park rangers policy was tht as long as it was discreate and they recieved no complaints they wouldn't bother the nudist. They made it clear they would act on any complaint. Well it went on like that for years with no problems until some of the local perverts discovered the area. The complaints came from the nudist about the perverts, but was enough for the park rangers to say they would enforce all laws and basicaly shut the nude use down.  So it's difficult for nudist to co exsist on a non nude beach even when the nudist do everything possible to cause no problems for other users. Good luck with the beach you are using and hope it works out but be aware that the there are likely to be problems that will be out of your control.

  In Denmark it is legal to swim naked at all beaches, but I think it's best to find one for nudists. Here you can read much more about being naked in Denmark: http://www.strandguide.dk/index.php?id=362&L=1 See you in Denmark

  [quote]Besides it not being legal, I like to relax...and if I'm constantly having to keep looking over my shoulder to see if someone is approaching, it would not be enjoyable to me.[/quote] I agree with free! I tried it with my wife where we heard people go but it is not legal. I was too worried to enjoy it and never tried again.
