We had skinny dipped in our own pool at home, but we discovered Orient beach and Club Orient while on our first cruise in the late 1990s. By the time we were heading back to the ship we were planning our next year's vacation for a week on St. Martin staying at club O.
Three years later we visited Avalon Resort in Eastern West Virginia and have been members there ever since.

We've lived as nudists for over 43 years. Skinny dipping just a part of our life. We discovered St. Martin, Club Orient and Orient Beach via the internet and then from people in the hot tub at the Terra Cotta Inn, in Palm Springs. We visited the island and Club O for the first time in 2001 and returned every year until 2010. Haven't been back since then but plan to return next year!
So far ... it's been the best experience of our extensive nudist travels. In 2009, our daughters, a SIL and the grandkids all vacationed at Club O for a week and they loved it! Last time we were there and it was the best experience ever, for them and for us!

First experience was in St. Martin, but not Orient. Rather, it was at Prune Bay. Happily, we've never looked back, and enjoy not wearing damp, sandy swimsuits.
I'm going where the weather suits my clothes.

jeepers said: I didn't think cupecoy was a clothing optional beach? Since our very first trip in 1973 we always knew Cupecoy to be the one beach on the Dutch side where clothing optional was never a problem. Times change and development has happened so while there may be properties there that frown on the practice, it's still done and mostly accepted without a hassle. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" />

It's been done and mostly accepted in our opinion as well.

January, I remember that. Of course, they weren't co-ed, and they were indoors then. I searched this, and the reasoning was that back then, swimsuits were woolen and the fibers clogged the filters.
I'm going where the weather suits my clothes.
