oAntiguao

o Hawksbill Beach Resort, Antigua. January 2002 My wife and I stayed for the third time. I am sorry to say that the hotel staff were uninterested in whether you were having a pleasant time or not. Some of the attitude was due to the fact that they had been put on reduced pay and fewer hours as the number of visitors had fallen due to Sept 11th tragedy. We also felt the resort was "tired " and needed renovation. We were directly comparing it to the previous week we had stayed in St Lucia at The Windjammer Landing resort, here the staff were happy and well motivated to providing every thing you could wish for, the facilities were superior, the food better etc. The only thing that is really going for the Hawsbill is its wonderful location and of course the clothes optional beach ( which the Windjammer does not have ). My wife is passionate about photography and one day took her large camera to the clothes optional beach to take a picture, not of people but of the seascape and palmtree leaning over the sea. She was confronted by an angry guest who said he would report her to the management, and then the security guard confronted her also, so be warned it will be very difficult to take any more pictures on the clothes optional beach!The food was not as good as 2 years earlier, less choice, it often wasn't possible to sit outside on the terrace under the stars for dinner because the tables had not been set. This is a simple joy if one lives in a land where the summers are cold! In Summary. They need to adapt to the fact that the resort is no longer providing value. It doesn't compare with similarly priced resorts. Dr Chris and Ruth. U.K. Thanks Chris and Ruth for the report.
o Hawksbill Beach Resort, Antigua. February, 2000. After doing a fair amount of Internet research, we decided on Hawksbill Beach Resort. We spent eight nights there in mid-February, 2000. Thank God for the beaches, because it’s difficult to say much nice about any other aspect of the place. What follows are some fairly detailed observations. We have tried to stick with the facts; where there are opinions, we’ve tried to identify them as such. Hawksbill is located on the northwest coast of Antigua, about 25 minutes and US$ 17 from the airport. The setting is beautiful -- the resort stretches along four beaches and is isolated from the rest of the island. There are 111 rooms on the property, most in multi-unit structures. The nationalities of the guests appeared to be approximately 60% British, 20% Continental Euopean (primarily German) and 20% American. While there were obviously some returning guests, most of the guests were on tour or package arrangements... (click link to read the rest of the report.)

o Cutlass Bay Club has been sold and is being renovated by the new owners.
o Nude Beach in Nassau Report. November, 2002. Note from Jan: I sent Louis this writeup, on the nude beach on Paradise Island, in November (from the World Guide to Nude Beaches and Resorts - published by the Naturist Society - if you wish to order it feel free to do so through the NetNude Store HERE) "For nude use, walk left on the beach past Club Med, and the Yoga Center where g-strings and topfree are okay, over and around some major coral rocks and boulders, to the open sandy beach close to the lighthouse on the northwestern tip, before the rock jetty. It gets very hot so bring sunblock and drinking water. Be wary of sea currents and thieves. " He sent me this report: Here is an update on the last trip I had in Nassau ( Paradise Island ) and visiting Colonial beach, supposedly the only nude beach around. The first day I was there I was able to get out there but it was very difficult as I had to climb 10 foot walls and walk over a quarter mile of lava rock ( bring some shoes ). To be honest, it was not worth the hike so the remainder of my time there I found some isolation between a few inhabited homes. In summary access is the pits, unless you have a boat ! He also said in his email: I am planning a new trip and this time to Cancun, Playa de Carmen and Cozumel. Do you know of any good spots in Cozumel or Playa Car ? If anyone has any information on those areas, please email him. Thanks LouisB for the report.

oBonaireo

o Sorobon Beach Resort. Bonaire (Netherlands Antilles) Report. Summer 2001. Bonaire is one of the ABC islands, Aruba, Bonaire, and Curacao, officially know as the Netherlands Antilles, even though Aruba is separate country with its own currency and national flag. The islands are noted for their almost constant year-round temperature, 80's during the day, just right for enjoying the Caribbean water. The islands enjoy an ideal location south of the hurricane belt, and are cooled by constant trade winds, which are strong at times. This summer (2001) we spent 3 weeks on the islands, 10 days at the Sorobon Beach Resort, a CO resort. During our 3 weeks, only one day had sporadic rain showers, otherwise we enjoyed constant sun...

oCubao

o Cayo Santa Maria Report. March and November 2002. Cayo Santa Maria is a new small island located north of the main island of Cuba not far from Cayo Coco and Cayo Guillermo. Since it is a new destination, the only hotel operated by Melià Group has been opened in December 2001. The nearest airport able to accommodated bigger jets is located at Santa Clara. After landing you have to spend a 90 minutes bus drive to get Cayo Santa Maria. You will pass through typical Cuban cities or villages like Remedios and Caibarién. FRENCH VERSION ALSO.... (click link to read the rest of the report.)
o Cayo Largo Report. February 2006. We left Toronto an hour late on Feb 25, 2006 arriving in Cayo Largo at 10:05 local time as the pilot must have known that we were in a hurry to get to the resort and scout everything out. Couldn't do much of this in the dark but believe me the staff at THE SOL CAYO LARGO made up for that. We've been going to Cuba for the past 5 years and by far this has to be the BEST one that we've ever had... (click link to read the rest of the report.)
o Cayo Largo Report. Cayo Largo Revisited. Jan & I went back to Cayo Largo this December 2006, and I’m sorry to say it didn’t live up to the last two perfect experiences we had there - 2001 and 2004 (see previous trip reports). A lot of our disappointment had to do with the weather; it rained several times, including the last day of our vacation. But some of it was due to the state of the resort - the Sol Pelicano - and the absence of many naturists... (click link to read the rest of the report.)
o Cayo Largo Report. December 2004. Since the last report of our trip to Cayo Largo, Cuba in February 2001 received many responses from NetNude readers, I thought it would be a good idea to write an update from our most recent trip in December 2004. Many will remember that the island paradise was severely damaged by Hurricane Michelle in 2002. Villa Cappricio, the collection of thatched huts and sand beach that was the gathering place for naturists on the resort complex, was obliterated by Michelle. When we planned our trip this time we were concerned about where we might be able to enjoy nude sunbathing. Our concerns were unnecessary... (click link to read the rest of the report.)
o Cayo Largo Report. April 2003. Cayo Largo is already renowned for its beautiful beaches, its warm blue-green sea and its very relaxing way of life. It is also known amount European and Canadian naturists as a friendly naturist destination. Once you reach the airport everything is located at minute’s distances like hotels, harbour, beaches, village, etc. So displacements are minimum time spending. You have choice of at least five different hotels depending tour operators offers. FRENCH VERSION ALSO.... (click link to read the rest of the report.)
o Cayo Largo Report. February 2001. We desperately needed to get away this winter, and the weather in Florida was not worth making the 2-day drive, so Jan found us a couple of last-minute flights to Cayo Largo, Cuba. Neither of us are great world travellers so this was going to be a new adventure. The hope was to be able to get a week of warmth and sunshine, with perhaps a little bit of clothes-optional vacationing, without breaking the bank. I had read about Cayo Largo in the various issues of Going Natural and thought it might be - just - okay... (click link to read the rest of the report.)
o Cuba Report. January 2000. My wife and I visited the Varadaro area in January 2000. We stayed at the Hotel Las Brisas del Caribe situated in grounds directly on the main 23km Varadaro beach. It has been reported elsewhere of the increasingly liberalised attitude of Cuba towards nude sunbathing, and this indeed may be the case, but we saw very little actual evidence of this during our stay. Whilst topless sunbathing was reasonably prevalent within the grounds of the hotel, and in the adjacent hotels, and on the beach, we saw no nude sunbathers on the beach itself... (click link to read the rest of the report.)
o Cayo Largo, Cuba, Report. January 3/2000 - January 17/2000. Cayo Largo del sur is a small Island off Cuba’s south eastern coast. It is a beautiful island with fine creamy white sand and blue waters. The Island measures 37.5 square kilometres and is the home of pelicans (you will see many on a daily basis), iguanas, small lizards, birds and the zun zun humming bird. There are 7 Hotels on the Island , and since your vacation on the island is all inclusive, you are welcome to use the facilities and restaurants at every hotel, regardless of which hotel you are staying at...

o Melia Cayo Santa Maria. November 2006. I just came back from a week at Melia Cayo Santa Maria, Cuba. The nude beach is supposedly at the far end of the next hotel to the left (West), but that hotel was closed for renovations, so I had the whole beach to myself. One other couple was there regularly, and by the end of the week there were 6 of us. When the Sol reopens, I'm sure they will rake up the seaweed on the beach and return it to the beautiful white condition similar to the Melia beach. The Melia property has 2 main pools, one kiddy pool, and a gazebo with a small hottub. They also have 6 tennis courts, squash wall, basketball court, rock wall, batting cage, and full fitness centre, none of which were used by anyone while I passed by. Each guest can also get one hour free at the spa, consisting of a dry sauna, steam room, warm tub (where they serve you tea), 2 hot tubs, a cool- down room, and another small pool. (Massages are available at a normal price). It is clearly stated that bathing suits must be worn. But the funny thing is that there is only one co-ed change room. While I was changing, a husband and wife came out of the shower. They were not amused. I guess the facilities make it the 4.5* rating, but it is Cuba, so don't expect perfection. Go to the briefing. The accuracy of the printed information, the tv info channel, and signs is not guaranteed. Make your own list of which stations are on what channels. If you try to book a dinner at one of the specialty restaurants, there will be "no space". You then need to use whatever trick works for you -- beg, sad face, give a tip -- then a "cancellation" may appear or other "reassignment" may take place. When I finally got in, of the 15 tables, 6 remained empty the entire time. The food is slightly better, but like typical expensive restaurants, the portions are extremely small. Fortunately there's a 24 hour snack bar you can go to afterwards. Overall, I'd say it's a good place to go to get away from the freezing temperatures, down to where it's around 31C/88F. P.S. If you're south of the .ca border, ignore all this; your "Land of the Free" government won't give you the freedom to go there. Thanks JohnQ for the report!
o Santa Clara in Cuba Report. March 2005. Had the pleasure of visiting this fantastic place the week of Mar 6-11. All I can say is it's Cuba. Resort is out of this world ...service a lot to be desired but still in growing stages and when they get that up to par it will be a great place to go. Beach is awesome you can walk for miles nude most of the entire beach. Not appreciated when you drift of into the textile area but for a nude stress free relaxing vacation I would recommend this place to everyone. As usual Cuba doesn't sanction this type of behavior but we were there and never once did we get bothered by the fact that we were nude. The people we meet were great nothing better than being on a beach where everyone can be textile free just having fun and doing what you wanted to do and not being bothered . Only issue that we had was the fact that the hobie cats and paddleboaters would always head towards the nude area so as they could let the gawkers see what was happening in the nude area. More fun on the nude side compared to what was happening on the textile area so I think that there was a lot of wannabees but were afraid to join in. Only other thing that we have to say is if you want a nice relaxing nude beach try it you'll want to return.. can't wait til next year. Thanks Freddie for the report.
o Sol Club Report. January 2005. Got back yesterday from Sol Club in Cuba for the week and altogether it was a fantastic trip. Squeaked out at 6:30am from Toronto just as the snow started to fall on the saturday and got down there to beautiful sunny weather. Here is the breakdown. Hotel - Is beatiful - well maintained and clean. Never had a problem with any of the staff and everyone was very friendly. Any problems that we had were quickly resolved - like the remote for the A/C was not working and it was fixed within an hour of me stopping into the front desk...

More nude weeks are planned for September 2003, December 2003, and next Summer / Fall.

o Eden Bay Resort. Dear Interested Guests, I've asked the webmaster of this site to remove old reports about the history of Eden Bay. We have a new history to be proud of since our reopening on August 15, 2003 and the old trials and tribulations of our homeowners in the accomplishment of this task although admirable, need not be dwelled on hear where people come to find out about vacation destinations. And ours is one of the best in the Caribbean. Outside the sleepy village of Abreu...(Click preceding link to read the rest of the report.)

I am happy to report that the resort looks better then ever. Air conditioning is installed in all the accommodations, all the rooms, all the furniture are upgraded, freshly painted.

o Eden Bay Resort Report. May 2004. This resort I understand reopened in the latter part of 2003. My wife and I went to Eden Bay from May 1st through May 8th, 2004. This has been by far the best trip we have ever made. The resort is one of the most beautiful places to spend a nude vacation. It is all inclusive and we can't say enough about the great food, drink and service this place has to offer. To start off with we were met at the Puerto Plata airport by a taxi, sent by the resort. The driver was outside with an "Eden Bay Resort" sign and when we approached he presented us with a short introductory letter from the resort manager. The letter identified the driver and explained how long the drive would take and even supplied us with refreshments for the 1 and half hour drive to the resort. We were met at the resort by the manager, Patricia Gordon, and a couple cold rum punches. Boy, were they good. She took us on a tour of the resort while our bags were taken to the villa where we would be staying. Our villa was right on the beach and in the lower section of the two tiered resort. The landscaping was so beautiful. There was two pools on the lower level next to the beach bar and restaurant area. There was also a hot tub that sat right on the edge of the resort next to the ocean that was out of this world. Relaxing in the tub with the surf splashing only a few feet away. One the upper level was the main dining room and another pool with a swim up bar. The food was varied and delicious. The drinks, never ending and the service received from the entire staff was the best. At the end of our stay, the manager secured a taxi to take us back to the airport and not once did we ever have to worry about making plans to go any where. These people truly made our stay a real vacation. The fact that it was a clothing optional/nude resort only added to the relaxed atmosphere. We cannot say enough about this resort and the people who run it. If you want a really relaxing nude vacation, you must try Eden Bay Resort, you'll never regret it. If anyone has any questions about this place we would be more than happy to answer any of your questions. Email Frank and Deb for additional information.

oGrenadao

o Grenada. 2006. We were in Grenada (Greeenada) in 06 for two weeks. This was one year after a hurricane demolished 90 percent of the island. The island had recovered quite nicely and everyone had great stories to tell. Most hotels were open for business with the exception of the larger hotels along Grand Case Beach which is the most popular beach. Grenada has lots of activities and sightseeing adventures and the people are very friendly. Not once were we hounded to purchase anything. We spent the first week just north of St. Georges which is the capital and main city. It is a beautiful waterfront city with plenty of shopping and restaurants. Make sure to find and drive thru the tunnel which divides the main part of the city and the north part where the open market is located. The open market was wonderful with lots of spices and fresh fruit and fish. Grenada is known as the spice island. The second week we spend in the north at Almost Paradise Resort. I only mention this as there are not too many resorts in the north and this was a really nice place. The north is like being on a different island. It is a beautiful lush area with lots of trees and vegetation. The beaches are mostly secluded and the best ones need to be walked to. Although nudity is not the norm on this island the beaches in the north are so secluded there was no problems. There was quite a bit of anti american sentiment, but directed toward the U.S. government Not U.S. people. This distinction was made clear on many billboards which thanked the American people for all their help and pointed out very little help was given by the U.S. government. One thing not to miss is Fish Friday. One little town on the west coast has a feast every Friday nite serving lots of different dishes mainly fish freshly caught. Also there are lots of side dishes with a local flare. As you drive into town it looks a little scary, but there are 4 or 5 elderly ladies whose job it is to welcome you and to make you feel at ease. Overall Grenada was a great experience and a friendly place to visit. Thanks grower53. If you wish to contact the person, post a message to that 'exact' alias on the message board.

oGuadeloupeo

o Guadeloupe and Terre de Haute Report. June, 1994. The following is a belated summary of our trip to two delightful isles in the French Antilles (West Indies). Both Guadeloupe and its out-island neighbor, Terre de Haute, (pronounced "tear dough") are French-speaking islands and a command of a few key words en francais are helpful-- not essential, but helpful, especially in Terre de Haute... (click link to read the rest of the report.) Update on January 2001: I had heard and now have been notified by email that Caravelle beach next to Club Med is no longer nude or CO. I also read a report a year ago or so that Anse Crawen on Terre d'Haute is no longer CO as well. (Click preceding link to read the rest of the report.)

o Firefly Beach Cottages in Negril, Jamaica. February 2002. On February 20th our smiles turned upside down as we packed our bags into the taxi and departed Firefly Beach Cottages in Negril, Jamaica. This had been our second visit and this time we extended our stay to 12 days, plus we took along friends from Canada to share the Firefly and Negril experience. They, too, fell in love and hope to return to Firefly again in the future. For us ... well, we already have our reservations for February 2003 at Firefly, so now all we have to do is count sleeps...

o Firefly in Negril, Jamaica, Report. February 2001. My husband and I just returned from a one-week stay at Firefly in Negril, Jamaica. We were there from February 10-17, 2001. We landed at the airport in Montego Bay and travelled to Firefly by taxi - $100 US return trip total. You can also fly from MoBay to Negril at a slightly higher rate, but you will not see the beautiful Jamaican countryside nor experience the wild car ride! Our cab driver stopped so we could get some ice cold Red Stripe beer for the 90-minute drive, and we were soon at the entrance to Firefly... (click link to read the rest of the report.)
o Firefly Cottages, Negril, Jamaica Report. January 2000. We spent the last week of January in Negril, Jamaica, for a getaway from some very cold weather back home (weather that had delayed our departure by one day but lengthened our stay by 2 days). It was wonderful to step off the Air Jamaica flight, pull off the sweatshirt, and experience the warm ocean breeze, a far cry from the freezing weather we’d left in the States. Upon landing in Montego Bay, the airport being right on the sea, we made our way to the Air Jamaica Express counter to pick up our tickets for the 20 minute puddle-jumper to Negril, located about 70 miles away on the western tip of the island...

o Grand Lido Braco Report. August 1999. This was our first trip to GL Braco. It proved to be "at least" everything that had been promised, and in most ways, more than we had hoped for. Everyone knows the basic trip report format, describing the room, pool and restaurants in exacting detail, so don't expect another rerun of the same old stuff here. I will try to highlight the good and bad experiences that are the most memorable to us. We arrived at Montego Bay airport about 10:30am on the 18th, and all our bags made it on the same trip, too! We had no problems, mon, clearing customs and headed toward the Superclubs Desk. They seemed to be a little surprised about our Braco destination, they were not ready for us and had to round up a driver.... (click link to read the rest of the report.)

o Hedonism II. What Hedonism Means To Me... Jamaica Jim's Views on Hedonism!! "The very name conjures up fantasies of ribald,raucous days and lewd, lascivious nights in a tropical paradise. The facts tend to be far less than that, but that is what a first timer expects. But, rather than being a wild bacchanalian orgy, replete with men and women sating themselves with wine and wild merry- making, the real Hedonism is quite different". Location report by Jamaica Jim Jordan - 1998.
o Jamaica, Jamaica Report. July, 1993. My wife and I went to Jamaica Jamaica this past July/93. We had a great time. Ja Ja is in Runaway Bay, east of Mo Bay but not as far as Ocho Rios. It took about 1 hour by the free hotel bus. We left on a Sunday, departing Toronto at 1:15pm and stopping at Turks & Caicos to pick up Club Med vacationers. We finally arrived at Montego Bay at 6pm, clearing customs at 7:15pm. Don't try to rush through the lineups... (click link to read the rest of the report.) Trip report by Fred B.
o Point Village, Negril, Jamaica, Report. January 2001. We went to Point Village in Negril last January. Negril is a wonderful 2 hour drive from Montego Bay airport, including a stop for Red Stripe Beer. The road is primitive and the trip slow, but it sort of gets you in gear for Jamaica. Type A people are mind-wiped during the ride and don't mind the definitely different pace of Jamaica for the rest of the trip... (click link to read the rest of the report.)

o Secrets, Jamaica, Report. March 2000. I went to "Secrets", Firefly's beach cottages adjunct in March. Not realizing that the entire month of March is Spring Break month in Jamaica, I was a little disappointed to find the entire "7 mile beach", as it's touted to be, liberally sprinkled with 20-something college students. Not that I'd object, normally, but I had been looking forward to a nude vacation... (click link to read the rest of the report.)

Visit this fine Eco Lodge and Health Retreat in a paradise setting. Back to Eden is possible! You can go nude or do the mud therapy on the small private beach that comes with the deluxe cabin. There are no nudist activities on the compound otherwise and we ask that the nudity be restricted to that beach only. Visit the website for additional information. (See our listing in TanPages.com)

oPuerto Ricoo

o Conquistador Hotel Report. October 2005. We just got back from a wonderful vacation at the Conquistador hotel in Puerto Rico. The hotel is on the expensive side but they offer two nude beaches on a private island that the hotel has. The beaches were somewhat isolated but just a short hike from the resort dock. These beaches are posted as clothing optional on a map/sign that you see once you step off the boat. The hotel does not note that they have nude beaches on the website. The two days we spent on the beaches we were there with 4 other couples and a handfull of single people who came and went. The beaches can be accessed by either following the trail marked on the map, or by following the shoreline around.My wife and I found the shoreline route the better way. Bring supplies unless you want to be hiking back and forth to the restaurant. The hotel ferry boat does not allow coolers, but a carry bag or backpack they don't seem to have a problem with. The cay next to Palomino (Palominto) Island seemed to be visited often by textile catamarans and other boats, so we just stuck to the designated nude beaches.The island offers two.One is very small while the other is about half the size of Haulover.All of us went to the larger one since the water there is clearer.Use some kind of beach shoe as the bottom has a lot of coral on it. Wonderful time there...happy nudeing!!! Thanks Ken and Mariel for the report.
o PUERTO RICO and its Nude Beaches. January 2007. We called it The Enchanted Island of Puerto Rico others called us The Continent of Puerto Rico but we the natives or Puerto Rico preferred being called “Borinquen” as the native Tainos Indians used to call us since before Christopher Columbus discovered our coasts way back Oct. 19, 1493. The island has a rich Spanish heritage that fascinates every visitor. Following the Spanish-American War in 1898, Spain ceded the island to the United States, and in 1917 Puerto Ricans were granted US citizenship. Today, there is a harmonious mingling of Spanish and American cultures. From laid back to beachfront deluxe, Puerto Rico is an island offering so many vacation experiences. In the busy capital, San Juan, you'll find sightseeing attractions, luxury hotels, superb restaurants, exciting nightlife, and dazzling casinos. Out in the countryside, the mood is quite different it's another world, several other worlds, actually. Spanish colonial towns, a lush rain forest, quiet seaside restaurants and golden beaches await you... (click link to read the rest of the report.)
o Nude Beaches of Puerto Rico Report. Basically we don't have any CO beaches, pool, lakes or falls. If caught you might go to jail because of indecent exposure. Now, I was raised in Fajardo which is just north of Ceiba where Roosevelt Roads Naval Base is and I did start skinny dipping in my hometown beaches with all eyes open... In Fajardo we have a couple of beaches where you may go nude being extra careful. First, Playa Colora and Convento Beach are at the township of Fajardo. They are the most northern beaches still on the town and pretty isolated and gorgeous as well. To get there you have to go to Seven Seas Beach by car, walk to the shore. Now at your right you can see the lighthouse. Walk to the left, near the rock formation their is a trail near a lagoon. Walk through it and you wind up with two trails a few feet away. The one to your right gets you to Playa Colora, (Red Beach). Nice red sand and high surf are found here. Go to the right, which is more isolated than the rest. I love this one. For more isolation climb the rocks to your left and enjoy the view. Do it nude as I did. Do not dive in the rough waters over the cliff.... (click preceding link to read the rest of the report.) October 1999.
o Puerto Rico Report. May 1999. If you do come down here, you must stay at the Conquistador Hotel at Fajardo. (The town I grew up and started nudism). COguy is right, The Hotel rents the Island or Cay to a very rich family here and that half the south section is for the guest at the Hotel. The north section where the owner has a house is CO but only on weekdays not weekends since a lot of people go there during a boating day and may accuse you of indecent exposure and you may go to jail for it...

o San Juan, Puerto Rico, Report. January 2007. Met a couple who saw one of my previous reports, which wanted to go to a nude beach in Puerto Rico and I told them I would take them. I was able to have time to take them and decided to take them to Fajardo and went to Playa Colorá which I have reported on a report previously. I always carry a cooler in my trunk, filled it with beers, ice and I took something to munch on. It was supposed to rain but as it turns out here in the Caribbean you never know. We got there around 11 AM after picking them up at their hotel in San Juan. Once there, we walked through the path to the beach. Instructions to get there are as follow: Take route 3 to Fajardo (east), once you hit Wal-mart on the right turn left on that traffic light, (route 194). About 3 miles down that road you will see a sign to get to route 195, make a left and when you reach the traffic light to route 987 turn left... (click link to read the rest of the report.)

oSt. Johno

o St. John (USVI) Caribbean Report. 1999 - 2001. I resided on the island of St. John in the USVI from Oct. 1999 to May 2001 and attended Salomon Beach an average of 6 times per week. Nude use was unhassled during that time until April 2001 when increased frequency of National Park Service patrols visited that beach. Ranger Steve Clark and a ranger, an NPS special agent badge 878, ordered nude and top free users to dress. The rangers said at first they would ask nicely then start ticketing-enforcing USVI territorial laws against obscene behavior. Since I left the USVI in May, contacts of mine state that rangers visit the beach twice a day and have issued 8 known tickets ($100.) to topless and nude beachgoers. I have been in close and regular phone and email contact with Bob Morton of the Naturist Action Committee urging him to broadcast widely through an NAC Alert that the USVI CANNOT be reccommended for naturist use at this time. Your (NetNude's) advisory is 1998. It improved from that as I stated but then deteriorated again. PLEASE advise naturists not to go to St. John but go to Guadeloupe, St. Bart's, St. Martin, etc. St. John is a waste of time at present. Tradewinds, St. John's newspaper, which is also online, as well as St. Thomas source, the online daily for the USVI, also have archived stories on this. Please email me if any questions. Email Miacomet for additional information.
o St. John Problem Anti-Nudity Enforcement at Solomon Beach, St. John.

oSt. Kittso

o St. Kitts. This information may be useful to cruise ship visitors or others. Although nudity is officially not allowed it is tolerated on several beaches, the best one being Sand Bank Bay beach on the southern peninsula. It's about 800 meters long with the far end being used for nude sunning and swimming. Quite nice. If it's windy the far side of Friars Bay beach may be used also, good swimming. From Club Orient to St. Kitts is an easy flight, about 25 minutes and 85$ (USD-1998 fare) round trip. This report is brought to you by Barry. Email Barry for additional information.

oSt. Luciao

o St. Lucia Report. 2004. We were in St.Lucia in January 2004 and nudity or topfree were only found in two places that we know of. We had rented a car and did get to most beaches and out of the way places. The hummingbird hotel in Soufriere did allow toplessness. This only occured at their very small pool and only on the last two days of our stay by 2 italian women, not on the beach. The second place was the beach that is assoiated with Ti Kaye village which is half way between Soufriere and Anse La Raye. It was common for women to be topfree on this beach. Usually on a daily basis a tour boat from the cruise ships would pull into the little bay and disembark. As soon as they saw topfree a number of them would also join in. One thing not to miss is Anse La Raye on Tuesday nites (I think). They have a street festival where the locals come and cook some of the best food from the sea available. A live band was there and a great time had by all, especially if you love fish or lobster. Thanks grower53.

o St. Lucia Report. April 2000. My wife and I stayed at the Royal St Lucian Hotel in April 2000. It is located on the Reduit beach and immediately adjacent to the Rex St Lucian [its sister hotel] and the all inclusive resort called Papillion. The Rex St Lucian has been closed due to hurricane damage for some months, but was due to re-open 22nd April 2000... (click link to read the rest of the report.)

oSt. Martin - Sint Maarteno

o Alamanda Resort. Fall 2004. For those looking for a piece of heaven on earth St Martin is it. Located on Orient Beach, on the French side of the island. It is definitely worth your time to discover. The Alamanda is just the perfect location for those who choose to be close enough to the nude beach. It is less that a five minute walk to Club Orient and the freedom of clothes. The beach itself is absolutely wonderful and picturesque. Note that while on the Club Orient side no photographs are to be taken. If you choose to be prepared to be confronted by security. If you wish to take pictures it is best to ask a member of the security team and they will advise you when the best time is for photos. Also be mindful that on Wednesday most of the cruise ships come in and a lot of tourists venture over to this side of the island. Some are nudists. But a huge majority come to just look at the nude sunbathers. Don't fret though security will move them right along. Once you are there it is advised to try the nude cruise for it is wonderful if you have the right group of people. For those who are looking for paradise you have definitely made a good choice. Thanks the St. Martin vacationer for the report.

o First Time - Orient Beach Report. May 2004. My wife and I arrived at Orient Beach in mid afternoon in May, 2004. I could not help but feel a little anxious during the cab ride to our first experience at a clothing optional beach. Prior to Orient, my only experience was skinny dipping with some old girlfriends in a private setting. Denise, however, had spent a week going topless in Europe. She told me that she loved the freedom that this gave her and the feel of the sun and water on her bare breasts. For the better part of the first day, she left her bikini top on. When she finally did take it off, she never wanted to put it back on... (click link to read the rest of the report.)
o Orient Beach Report. On July 1, 2003, the Disney Cruise we were on, docked in St. Martin. Although the Disney folks offer an excursion to Orient Beach, we thought it would be less expensive to go on our own. Going it alone also allowed us to make our own schedule. We took an island tour excursion in the morning, and after a quick lunch on the ship we followed the signs for taxis to find a ride. At the taxi stand, a gentleman asked us where we wanted to go, and directed us to a bench. The taxis are really vans and they try to fill them up with as many people as they can before they leave. The good news is that the more people who are in the taxi, the lower the price. If memory serves me correctly, the taxi filled, and I think the fare ended up being something like $6.00/person, one way. Most of those in the van were dropped off before we reached the beach. Only an older couple and we were left for the remainder of the ride... (click link to read the rest of the report.)
o Club Orient Report. Xmas week, New Years December 2001. Our first trip to St Martin / Club Orient was just GREAT, a few lesson's learned though. We left Miami with THREE BAGS OF CLOTHE'S, AND ONE DIVE GEAR BAG-- you need one bag and dive gear only and a cooler with frozen food. The flight was uneventful and immigration no big deal. Take a taxi to Club Orient $25.00 and keep your camera handy some great views as you ride over the mountains," being from Florida anything over 100 feet is a mountain...

o Club Orient Resort Report. Orient Beach is heaven! If you've never visited this beach, it's a must-do in the near future. The sand is fine, the water is so clear that you can see your toes, the sun is warm, and the fish are numerous and friendly. I must say it was a disappointment when I had to come home. The resort itself is quite large, with about 125 studios, mini-suites and garden & beach chalets. Each of these rooms has a bedroom, bathroom, and kitchen with all the utensils and appliances you'll need. Add to these your personal items and groceries, and you're all set for a great clothes-free vacation!... (click link to read the rest of the report.)
o Orient Beach Vacation Report. This is a short report on my recent trip to Saint Maarten. You can go to the other report I made last year for a little more description of places to go, dine and shop. This one was a total week of enchantment at Club O. Even though we did not stay at Club O, we did spend all of our days at the beach and met new and old friends from previous years. This is a view of where we stayed at The Sunterra Flamingo Resort. I have to clarify that this was the week before Hurricane Lenny and that as a matter of fact one of the couples that we know stayed during the Hurricane at Orient. I know it is a scary experience for anyone that doesn't live in the tropics like we do... (click link to read the rest of the report.)
o Nudist Experiences and Club Orient Report. I've always enjoyed the outdoors. In the 1970's I was working as a road musician. Working at night had it's advantages. At almost every location we played, I was able to find a secluded place to enjoy the out doors nude. I guess I've been a part time naturist for most of my life. When ever possible I'd go nude but never around other people. After I quit the road and came home my life became pretty stressful and quite hectic. I knew I needed something to relieve the stress and I started thinking about the great feelings I had hiking through the forests nude and skinny-dipping in secluded mountain lakes and ponds...

o Club Orient Report. On the French side it is called St. Martin. The Dutch side of the island is St. Martaan. Club Orient resides on the Northeast corner of the island. Accommodations are wonderful.

o The Island of St. Martin. A trip to the island is a short trip from San Juan, Puerto Rico. It's less than an hour to be on the beach from time of departure. It's about a 3 to 4 hour trip from Miami. I would like to let everybody know what to expect from the island. I will discuss all different aspects for your stay! First, let's start with a small map. Below the red line is the Dutch side and above it is the French side. My summary on beaches start from the first beach on the east border of the Dutch side and following south clockwise, to finish on same side but on the French side. Enjoy the tour!

o Jeff Berger's St. Maarten/St. Martin. This lush tropical island is in all her splendor and tourists are here by the thousands. Yet the island retains that special flavor that sets it apart from its neighbors - in part its genuinely friendly people, in part its world-class restaurants, certainly its breathtaking beaches. . . but in sum - it's certainly everything you could ever hope for in a great tropical vacation.

oTobagoo

o Tobago. 2007. We spent two weeks in Tobago and what a laid back and wonderful island. We stayed midway up the leeward side of the island in a little fishing village called Castara. The village is very quaint and two things not to miss are when the fishermen pull in their nets at about 2p.m. and snorkeling with the sting rays. The sting rays are constantly gliding the shoreline waiting for handouts from the fishermen. Although nudity is not allowed on the island, two beaches afford one an opportunity to go nude. Englishmen beach about 1 mile north of Castara is a very nice beach with topfree and some nudity at both ends of the beach. Also King Peters Beach about 2 miles south of Castara is very secluded and had topfree and nude beachgoers. The road to King Peters is narrow and steep so caution is needed. The lush jungles and mountain roads are beautiful and pretty well maintained. If you are looking for a quiet getaway away from the all inclusives, this is the place. Thanks grower53.
