first experience
was 22 and just arrived in Africa. Was very hot there compared to what i was used to at home. Near my house was a deserted Atlantic beach shaded by coconut trees and with golden sand. water was 2c. started skinny dipping and soon joined by some of the local people. never looked back since
I was used to being naked while at home but never in public although i always wanted to. While i was on holiday in Miami i visited Haulover Beach.
After walking for quite a while making sure i'd located to straight area and plucking up the courage to join them, I laid my towel down and just laid there for a few minutes thinking i daren't take everything off, but then i thought i'm going to regret it if i don't.
I then took everything off and just loved it. After a few minutes i was confident enough to go for a walk and join a queue to buy a drink. And now all i want is to have a holiday at a nudist resort.
That day changed my life forever.
I had no problem being nude in public, ie: nude resort. I knew that I didn't want to be a home nudist only. My first time as a social nudist was at Glen Eden . They give a tour of complex the first half clothed and the second half nude.I had no problem getting nude.Alex
First time socially nude was at Gunnison in '96. In my case I was initially in a little bit of shock being surrounded by nude people. But I had wanted to experience social nudity for a long time (after years of solo nudity I figured it was high time to take it public.) Even after I started getting used to all the nude people around me, I was still hesitant to be completely nude myself. I went off for a walk to think about it; was it something I really wanted to do?
- I was on the far end of the beach when I really felt compelled to try it. There was no way I couldn't try it. So I tossed my oversized T-shirt over my shoulder and continued my walk nude; feeling the sun and wind all over my body in a way I'd only experienced before "in hiding." I was elated. I walked back to my spot, where my best friend, who had agreed to accompany me "for the naked ladies", was utterly baffled by my naked happiness. I had arrived at the beach that morning with a lot of hesitations; and I was now "one of them." Now that the clothes had come off there was no way I was going to cover up again. My friend joined me a little while later when he realized that I was fully intent on remaining completely nude the entire rest of the day.
- That was it for me. I knew I was a nudist that day.
I had very occasionally been naked (alone) in very quiet areas where there was NO chance of being spotted. However on one holiday in Greece (1980), I was at a fairly remote rocky/pebbly beach and saw my first nudist standing on a rocky outcrop. I did go naked for a short time that day but it wasn't possible for the rest of the holiday (more public beaches)
The following year, I want to Mykonos (Greek island) and went to a CO beach where most folks were nude. I did strip down and admittedly for a time had "a stiffy" (lay on my fron) but within a short time, I felt fine with being naked and was going into the sea and walking along the shore as though I had done it for years!
Never looked back since and it is now a requirement for any beach holiday!
