Frequently Asked Questions

Q    What is Nude Recreation?
A    Nude Recreation is a form of stress relief as well as a fantastic way to enjoy daily living, holidays, weekends, and vacations. It is also a very good way to get a "seamless" tan.

Q    Is Nude Recreation Legal?
Y   Yes, it is perfectly legal in areas designated as nudist resorts, nudist clubs, nudist parks, clothing optional areas, and of course nude beaches.

Q   Where can I find places to go that I can be nude without getting into trouble?
A    Check out the American Association for Nude Recreation for a list of clubs that you can visit in your area. There are over 230 AANR clubs in the United States.

Q   Do I have to be a member to get into a nudist park?
A   No, not at most parks, and certainly not at Serendipity Park. Everyone is welcome to visit at any time. Some clubs have a policy that you must call ahead first. It is wise to call first before visiting a club in order to find out their particular policy.

Q   Must I be nude all of the time if I go to one of "those places"?
A    Common sense dictates that when the weather is not conducive to being nude, people should be dressed. Most clubs allow a person to get undressed at his/her own pace.

Q    Is there any way I can find out if I want to go nude without actually going to a nudist park or beach?
A    Sure, there are lots of ways. Try walking around your home nude, sleeping in the nude, doing your housework in the nude. Even watch TV while you are nude. Millions of people do just those things on a daily basis. Once you feel comfortable then it is time to try it around other people.

Q    I do not have a "Perfect" body. Won't people laugh at me?
A    No, nudists do not laugh at others. They accept you for who you are, and not for how you look. We all have blemishes, scars, and imperfections, and there is no such thing as a perfect "10". I like to think of the human body as a package. The package can be wrapped in gold foil, and contain a lump of dirt. Then again the package can be wrapped in old newsprint and contain a rough-cut diamond. Another words, it is what is on the inside that counts.

Q    Will people stare at me?
A    No. Nudists do not have a need, or the desire, to stare at others. Basically we are all the same and there is nothing to stare at.

Q    Won't I feel uncomfortable being around amateur naked people?
A    Maybe for the first few minutes, but then you will forget that you are without clothes. Many people have told me, over the years, that they decided to get nude faster than they planned because they felt uncomfortable being the only clothed person around.

Q    Are nudist parks only for single people?
A    On the contrary. You will find single people, married people, couples, and many children at nudist parks. They come from all walks of life, all ethnic origins, all religions, and from all occupations.

Q    What if I meet someone at a nudist park that I know? I would be mortified.
A    If you do meet someone you know, they are there for the same reason you are, and they will be just as surprised to see you there, and will think nothing about it. Just remember, there is nothing wrong in being nude.

Q    If there is nothing wrong with being nude, why has it been kept a secret so long?
A    It has not been kept a secret. It has taken this long to get people to understand that being nude is natural, and society in the US is finally accepting the fact that nudism is not wrong and that nudists are not weirdoes. Many years ago people used to say that nudists lived in colonies. Well, ants live in colonies. Nudists live like anyone else. Social nudism started in the US in 1929. It was brought to the US from Germany where nudism has been accepted for centuries. Europe has always accepted nudists and thinks nothing of it. In fact, the very first Olympic Games were played in the nude in Greece.

Q    Isn't it wrong to have kids see you nude?
A    Why would it be wrong? If it is simple nudity without sexual connotations, there is absolutely nothing wrong with it. In fact it has been proven that children who are nudists have many less hang-ups about sexuality, and growing up, than those who lead a "sheltered" life.

Q    I could never let my children see me nude. I would be too embarrassed.
A    If parents stopped trying to hide simple nudity from their children, there would be a better understanding, and more open communication, between parents and children. Too often children are uptight about the changes taking place within them, and are afraid to talk about it because they feel it is Young. Seeing each other nude tends to break down those barriers, and makes it easier to speak about one's feelings without fear.

Q    Don't nudist kids experiment a lot seeing others nude?
A    No, in fact there is less experimenting in the nudist environment than in the textile environment because children being raised as nudists have no need to peek, check others out, or to play doctor because they see it all without having it hidden. The mystery is not there. It is really a healthy way to raise children. They have more respect for each other, and for everyone else. They do not snicker or giggle when they see a nude body like a lot of kids do.

Q    My husband wants me to try it, but I think that he would spend all of his time looking at other nude women.
A    If he wants to try nude recreation with you, I would think that he is proud of you and wants you at his side.

Q    If I were to try it, what would happen if I started my menstrual cycle?
A    Nothing would happen to you. During that time of month all you have to do is wear shorts, a sarong, or whatever makes you feel comfortable. That is part of being a woman.

Q    What do I do if someone "hits" on me? Isn't that common?
A    No, it is not common at all. It rarely happens, and if by chance it does, all you have to do is report it to the park office and steps will be taken to insure that it does not happen again. That type of behavior is not tolerated.

Q    Do men walk around with erections all of the time like I have heard?
A    No, that is far from the truth. Erections are very uncommon because any man that is at the park is there only for the enjoyment of the sun and fellowship. If by chance a man gets an unexpected erection he will cover up with a towel, roll over onto his stomach, or otherwise hide it until it subsides. Any man flaunting an erection will be asked to leave the grounds and not return.

Q    What should I take with me if I visit a nudist park?
A    A towel is probably the most important item. It is used for a multitude of reasons. You should always sit on it whenever you sit on a chair or lounge. This is not only for personal hygiene, but also out of courtesy to others. You can use it to cover up with if you get too much sun on your shoulders, to dry off with after using the pool, sauna, or spa; and to lie on. A pair of sandals or comfortable casual shoes or thongs for walking, sunscreen and lotion, sunglasses, and of course clothes to wear if it gets chilly.

Q    My wife wants to visit a nudist resort, but I am afraid that I will feel inferior once she sees all of the other men walking around nude. How do I handle this?
A    Everyone is different in some ways, but in most ways we are all the same. There is no reason to feel inferior because she most likely will be looking more into the eyes of everyone she sees and will not be paying attention to other areas. It has been said many, many times that there is more eye contact at a nudist park than there is in any other place.

Q    What is the best age to bring children to a nudist type place?
A    Any age is ideal. Probably the only time that it may be difficult for some kids is just at the time they are entering puberty. It all depends on how open you are with your children.

Q    What are the ages that we will see at a nudist park?
A    You will find infants to great grandparents. There are first, second, and even third generation nudists at lots of the parks.

Miami Nude Beach Nudity, Please Read!

There's something liberating about the antic of being naked.  The freedom.  The exhilaration.  The lack of pocket lint.  Unfortunately, for most people the notion of nudity requires some rationale - no matter how silly that rationale may be.  Streaking across a football field. Skinny-dipping in a lake.  Mooning for the camera.  Photocopying your butt.  Playing naked Twister.  Flashing a nun after sixth-period class, hoping she didn't recognize you and isn't at this instant phoning your parents.  For most people, it's all about the naughty thrill of getting caught or exposing a private part.  But not for all.  No, for many it's perfectly routine, as normal and natural as, say, kissing hands or shaking a baby.

Nude beaches are the perfect denominators for these two groups, the puritans and the pure exhibitionists, the fakirs and the non-fakers. Think of it as a big game of strip poker where everybody has crappy hands.  The thing to remember is that nude sunbathing isn't about sex or exhibitionism - we'll leave that to the nudist colonies and Courtney Love.  Nude sunbathing is about elation and free-spiritedness (and avoiding wedgies and ugly tan lines).

I've made the trek to No Clothes Land many a time.  I've dropped trou in Europe, where it's no big deal - heck, even the Royal Family has displayed a boob or two (not counting Prince Charles).  Black's Beach in San Diego is world famous for nude sun worshipping.  And, of course, here in Miami, we have Haulover Beach.

One of the misconceptions about nudity is that every human body is beautiful (Right).  The key to inoffensive nude sunbathing is to do just that - sunbathe.  Do not play volleyball in the buff.  No grilling or barbecuing.  Even if your Playgirl's Mr. January, do not perform an oil and air filter change on your auto while naked.  An watch the jogging - you could poke somebody's eye out.

Nude beachgoers often have their social cliques and routines.  They picnic and fraternize, and they love to mingle.  Zoiks.  These people who sashay up and down the beach wearing nothing but a smile and a spare tire are the same folks you find in the receiving line at a wedding wielding a business card and a can of Binaca.

When I venture to Haulover, I stick close to my blanket or hit the water.  I don’t wander about.  It’s like you want to work the room, but there’s no place to put your hands and no appropriate place to hang your Walkman.  (Plus, you feel like you’ve gone to a party and everyone’s wearing the same thing.)  Personally, I happen to like being naked. It’s never bothered me.  I often get home from work, disrobe, and sit naked on my couch eating cereal.  (Did I just cross the line of too much information?)  Some people are uncomfortable naked.  I’m not.  What I do have a problem with, however, is being ugly and naked.  Statistics show that the number of people who enjoy nude sunbathing is proportionate to those who should put something on.  Like a tarp.  Or one of those tents that they use when they’re debugging a house.  That one of the reasons why I prefer the sanctity of my blanket.  I can feign sleep (or death, if necessary) should some naked old man approach me and start to discuss today’s undertow as he squats liberally in front of me.

Sunscreen:  I’d be remiss if I didn’t stress the importance of proper protection.  Those regions that rarely see the light of day are the first to succumb to the sun’s deadly rays.  Hence, watch your behind, or your buns will be toast.  As for – how do I say this politely – garnishing your weenie, yes, your little buddy needs sunblock, but remember, you’re in public.  There a fine line between safety and pleasure when applying lotion to Mr. Happy.  I’ve seen guys go at it like they’re greasing a fire pole.  So take it easy.  Don't make things hard on yourself.

When it comes to accessories, there are certain things you should and should not bring to a nude beach.  Telescopes and binoculars are definite no-nos.  You may think of this as a ball game, but I’m sure the Red Sox would beg to differ.  Likewise with a camcorder – carrying a video camera at a nude beach is the pervert’s equivalent of driving by a schoolyard with a van full of candy.  As for ready, avoid books with titles like Justice of the Piece.  Stick to Field and Stream, Reader’s Digest or the Gideon Bible.  Sunglasses are a must.  If you’re gonna ogle, at least do it behind your Maui Jims.

As for your random beach bump-ins, there are obvious encounters. Besides bodies that you’d rather not see naked, piercings are immensely popular.  Popular, I surmise, because they’re in places that wouldn’t necessarily be exposed at Publix (unless you shop at the new one by the bay).  I’ve seen nipples that look like parachute rip cords.

And below the belt, I’ve seen piercings that made me recoil.  (Come to think of it, I’ve seen coils down there, too.)  And little napkin rings.  And something called a Prince Albert.  I’ve seen less metal at a gun show.  And shaving.  Hmmmm.  Apparently trimming the hedges has become all the rage.  Some folks go for the close cropping; others like it smooth.  I haven’t seen topiary this creative since I was at the Botanical Gardens.

Nude sunbathing can be a kick, an exciting way to liven up an otherwise dull day at the beach.  For the ladies, it means being able to wear a sundress without worrying about unsightly strap lines.  For the guys, it means there’s no need to adjust the boys: it’s a wind sock now.  For all of us it means an escape, a break from our daily worries and cares, a moment’s freedom where less is so much more – except when it comes to that sunscreen.
