Nude Beach - 40 Years Ago vs. Yesterday

[JenniZinc]

A very happy 2025 to one and all! It's late morning here in southern AUS and trying to get into gear following a fairly big day yesterday.

My friend had a crazy idea to visit the same nude beach (naturist beach for the purists) that we spent New Years Eve at exactly 40 years ago to the day.

To those that have read my previous posts, you'll know that I spend most of the warmer months in a naked state working around my winery. Born with pale skin I am a sunblock marketer's dream, which goes some way to explain my pink zinc fetish.

So, what has changed in 40 years?

For a start, me. As an 18 year old I was quite slim, with big boobs. Now as a 58 year old, I'm quite chubby with even bigger boobs

And that's where I get the sense of deja vu ...... back in the 80's, nude beaches were the domain of the very young and the very old. Now they are just the very old. Almost as if the demographic of nudists has simply increased. There were around 200 yesterday and I barely clocked anyone below the age of 50.

Except for those that thought it was a great idea to bring their grandkids. Seriously? To those that believe that nudity is a natural and non-sexual environment, please pull your head out of the sand. It really lowers the vibe, even though there was no more than a dozen yesterday, it was a dozen too many.

Pubic hair, or lack thereof. In my day, our pubes were something to be proud of. I still have all mine, but I'm in the absolute minority. Lots of smooth penises and vulvas, and to be honest, to me it's not as pleasing to the eye. Just a personal opinion.

Fat, and lots of it. Like most I have let myself go, even though I do a lot of work around the farm I have managed to pile on the kilos. But yesterday I felt almost svelte. I would not like to get between this crowd and a buffet table!

Facial hair - I've never liked it, but it seems to be the rule that every male must look as though they work at a coffee shop.

Tattoos and piercings. Why oh why did I get the armband in 1997. Oh, I know, so I could experience the fun of tattoo removal sessions, only to back out at the fifth attempt and make it look worse. Tattoos on older people are a testament to what they thought was cool at the time. Especially tribal arm jobs for men that have no connection to a tribe other than the football team they follow. Nipple piercings = gross!

Tans, very few of them. I've never achieved a tan but I used to love seeing sexy tanned bodies, with our without the tan lines. I seems the good work the cancer council have done in the past in getting their message across has worked. Even as a straight chick there was nothing sexier than a fully tanned woman covering herself in baby oil. Yep, they used to do that!

Penises .... they seem to have become shorter over the years - maybe it's just my nostalgia kicking in

Boob jobs. They don't age gracefully, 60 year olds + with the tits of a 20 year old look just plain stupid.

Technology, what an issue. In the 80's it was something we never had to worry about, although to be honest there was probably the odd camera snapping here and there. But if you ended up on someone's camera reel, there was little chance it would be published anywhere. To be honest there's probably not a great market for nude pics of people my age, but I can understand why the younger crowd would be intimidated by the thought of what could end up being very public.

Same sex couples. Extremely rare to see 40 years ago. I was there with a female friend (totally platonic) as my husband thinks public nudity .... in fact nudity in general is for the vain or the stupid or both. Just an observation but the LGBT crowd don't hold back in public affection. Guys were dispensing handjobs to each other, and there was some very intense woman on woman kissing going on.

Don't get me wrong, I had a good time. I got quite drunk on my own wine, and now wish I didn't have that last bottle. But, I will always hold those 40 year ago memories more fondly!

I’m not one for the naturist scene but appreciated this post; then vs now… Although you might consider expanding more on the nostalgia elements of your adventure. I think that might be the most important part!

I'm one of those who believe that nudity is a natural and non-sexual environment and perfectly acceptable for children. If they lower the vibe for you, it just means that your expectations were more sexual than theirs.

Pubic hair, or lack thereof. In my day, our pubes were something to be proud of. I still have all mine, but I'm in the absolute minority. Lots of smooth penises and vulvas, and to be honest, to me it's not as pleasing to the eye. Just a personal opinion.

I agree with you there. I've still got my natural hair, which I keep trimmed. Bald vulvas on mature women look almost freakish to me. But if a woman is proud of the way her bare vulva looks, I'll support her right to show it.

Fat, and lots of it. Like most I have let myself go, even though I do a lot of work around the farm I have managed to pile on the kilos. But yesterday I felt almost svelte. I would not like to get between this crowd and a buffet table!

Me, too. So I'm not the one who should be throwing stones, so to speak.

Facial hair - I've never liked it, but it seems to be the rule that every male must look as though they work at a coffee shop.

I don't see much of that around here. More men are clean-shaven than bearded.

TTans, very few of them. I've never achieved a tan but I used to love seeing sexy tanned bodies, with our without the tan lines. I seems the good work the cancer council have done in the past in getting their message across has worked. Even as a straight chick there was nothing sexier than a fully tanned woman covering herself in baby oil. Yep, they used to do that!

My first steady girlfriend used to use a mixture of baby oil and iodine. She said it worked, and she did develop a nice tan. Nowadays, if I see somebody with a perfect tan, I consider it the same sort of body ornament as a tattoo, and hope that the wearer doesn't get the big C somewhere down the line.

Penises .... they seem to have become shorter over the years - maybe it's just my nostalgia kicking in

I see no difference. But maybe the more attractive ones stood out more in your memory.

Boob jobs. They don't age gracefully, 60 year olds + with the tits of a 20 year old look just plain stupid.

Again, I agree. And those fake boobs never seem to age well.

Technology, what an issue. In the 80's it was something we never had to worry about, although to be honest there was probably the odd camera snapping here and there. But if you ended up on someone's camera reel, there was little chance it would be published anywhere. To be honest there's probably not a great market for nude pics of people my age, but I can understand why the younger crowd would be intimidated by the thought of what could end up being very public.

It's an issue, all right. No guarantees that somebody with a cell phone won't be posting your image on the internet. It may be why the younger crowd doesn't frequent nude beaches. At the resorts, cell phones and tablets must have covered lenses, if they're allowed at all.

Same sex couples. Extremely rare to see 40 years ago. I was there with a female friend (totally platonic) as my husband thinks public nudity .... in fact nudity in general is for the vain or the stupid or both. Just an observation but the LGBT crowd don't hold back in public affection. Guys were dispensing handjobs to each other, and there was some very intense woman on woman kissing going on.

Not something you generally see here, except at certain areas of the nude beach where it's condoned. I've moseyed over to those areas out of curiosity, but it wasn't my scene. One thing, though: Too much of that stuff can get a nude beach closed down, so it's important to stay below the radar.

Don't get me wrong, I had a good time. I got quite drunk on my own wine, and now wish I didn't have that last bottle. But, I will always hold those 40 year ago memories more fondly!

I can relate. When we were young and had this idea of a perfect society where you could be nude whenever and wherever you wanted, there was a lot of skinny-dipping and experimentation with nudity in social situations. It's a different scene now.

I hope to get back to a nudist beach soon. The one I went a couple of years back was mostly older women. A few guys of different generations. Half dozen women in their early 20 at a guess.
Plenty of space around everyone. I enjoyed it.(without showing the flag completely)
I prefer the natural look myself although I do groom. When I manscape, everything is trimmed on the same length. Just so it looks tidy.
I was surprised on how many of the older women there had such great figures.
Long as I kept clean happy thoughts, I was good.

A good nudist community consists of all shapes and sizes and age ranges. You soon forget your nudity and go about your normal routine apart from wearing clothes.

No one judges you and it is great to be naked in nature letting it all hang out!

 

[Britva415]

if I see somebody with a perfect tan, I consider it the same sort of body ornament as a tattoo

That's pretty much exactly what I think when I see someone whose chest now looks like well-done cheese pizza. That's your permanent body mod 30 years later

Total agree with you said, prefer a un in hanced woman all natural good enough for me

Thanks for the memories of my Club Med (Bahama's) visit. I wasn't about to go naked but saw quite a few French men & women naked. I was between 10-12 at the time. Fun times, I kid I mad friends w/ would go up and down the beach asking topless (or more) women wait time it was. We just wanted to get a close up view of them. Oh how young and dumb we were.

Nice to know you're open minded about receiving oral sex from other males

Loved hearing this story about your visit and the then vs now comparison! Was a very enjoyable and informative read, and also just nice to hear your authentic perspective and experience. It is so nice to be able to enjoy life in a naked state!

Technology, what an issue. In the 80's it was something we never had to worry about, although to be honest there was probably the odd camera snapping here and there. But if you ended up on someone's camera reel, there was little chance it would be published anywhere. To be honest there's probably not a great market for nude pics of people my age, but I can understand why the younger crowd would be intimidated by the thought of what could end up being very public.

Same sex couples. Extremely rare to see 40 years ago. I was there with a female friend (totally platonic) as my husband thinks public nudity .... in fact nudity in general is for the vain or the stupid or both. Just an observation but the LGBT crowd don't hold back in public affection. Guys were dispensing handjobs to each other, and there was some very intense woman on woman kissing going on.

Don't get me wrong, I had a good time. I got quite drunk on my own wine, and now wish I didn't have that last bottle. But, I will always hold those 40 year ago memories more fondly!

It's a shame your beach hasn't evolved. I live in San Diego and frequent a beach you have probably heard of, Black's Beach. Like you I have been frequenting this beach since I was, ahem, 16 when I first got my drivers license, that would have been 1977. Back then it was extremely well attended with anywhere in the neighborhood of 5000 people would come on a warm summer weekend. There were all types of people that would come to Black's, some from far away as San Diego has always been a tourist mecca. One time it was on the national news for a parade they had one Fourth of July. Sadly, shortly after that the puritans started writing tickets to anyone that was naked, even topless. That went on for a few years and then slowly dissipated and nobody I knew would go. Eventually, over a period of a few years, it morphed into a mainly gay beach and still has that stigma to some. But about 10 years ago couples and college age people slowly started coming back to sunbathe au natural. and it's getting better every year. There are usually somewhere around 1,000 there on any given weekend. But it's a long beach and you don't feel crowded. There are straight, gay, lesbian, and trans people that all seem to get along well together, But like your beach the older crowd does tend to have gained a few pounds and the pubes are typically shaven, including mine.

There is the clandestine sex that occasionally happens but it's usually well hidden in a tent or sunshade. We don't want to give the aforementioned puritans another reason to start policing the beach again. We pretty much police ourselves in a way that doesn't seem invasive and people generally abide by the unwritten rules.

One thing has changed though, alcohol is a no-no on all San Diego beaches so you either need to hide it in some sort of thermal cup or drink water.

You should come up and visit us sometime, after all, your winter is our summer. August is best as the water temp tends to be at its peak, somewhere in the 76-78 degree range (Fahrenheit).

A very happy 2025 to one and all! It's late morning here in southern AUS and trying to get into gear following a fairly big day yesterday.

My friend had a crazy idea to visit the same nude beach (naturist beach for the purists) that we spent New Years Eve at exactly 40 years ago to the day.

To those that have read my previous posts, you'll know that I spend most of the warmer months in a naked state working around my winery. Born with pale skin I am a sunblock marketer's dream, which goes some way to explain my pink zinc fetish.

So, what has changed in 40 years?

For a start, me. As an 18 year old I was quite slim, with big boobs. Now as a 58 year old, I'm quite chubby with even bigger boobs

And that's where I get the sense of deja vu ...... back in the 80's, nude beaches were the domain of the very young and the very old. Now they are just the very old. Almost as if the demographic of nudists has simply increased. There were around 200 yesterday and I barely clocked anyone below the age of 50.

Except for those that thought it was a great idea to bring their grandkids. Seriously? To those that believe that nudity is a natural and non-sexual environment, please pull your head out of the sand. It really lowers the vibe, even though there was no more than a dozen yesterday, it was a dozen too many.

Pubic hair, or lack thereof. In my day, our pubes were something to be proud of. I still have all mine, but I'm in the absolute minority. Lots of smooth penises and vulvas, and to be honest, to me it's not as pleasing to the eye. Just a personal opinion.

Fat, and lots of it. Like most I have let myself go, even though I do a lot of work around the farm I have managed to pile on the kilos. But yesterday I felt almost svelte. I would not like to get between this crowd and a buffet table!

Facial hair - I've never liked it, but it seems to be the rule that every male must look as though they work at a coffee shop.

Tattoos and piercings. Why oh why did I get the armband in 1997. Oh, I know, so I could experience the fun of tattoo removal sessions, only to back out at the fifth attempt and make it look worse. Tattoos on older people are a testament to what they thought was cool at the time. Especially tribal arm jobs for men that have no connection to a tribe other than the football team they follow. Nipple piercings = gross!

Tans, very few of them. I've never achieved a tan but I used to love seeing sexy tanned bodies, with our without the tan lines. I seems the good work the cancer council have done in the past in getting their message across has worked. Even as a straight chick there was nothing sexier than a fully tanned woman covering herself in baby oil. Yep, they used to do that!

I feel the exact same way about pubic hair, piercings, and tattoos. I’m an older guy and I too reminisce about nude beaches 40-50 years ago. Slim tan girls with their baby oil. Many had tan lines, extremely white butts and tits, which would be red by the end of the day. Back then, I did have my porn star mustache, now clean shaven, not succumbed to the old man goatee trend yet, and about the same weight, but helped by a lot of exercise and trying not to yield to food temptations, but not always succeeding. From your description, I think I’ll do the world a favor and skip the nude beach.

I have been going to nude beaches and resorts for the last 55 years and still get the same thrill as I did when I first started. In fact, I have plans to go about 6 or 7 times this year.

I wouldn't suggest at all that you skip going, it was still a good experience. I just preferred the older day nude beach vibe!

I have indeed heard of Blacks Beach many times, but never thought to find out where it actually is. I get to San Fransisco up to 4 times a year for wine meetings (yes, the famous wine region needs to buy spare wine in bulk from Australia ) but I'm straight in and straight out, so no time for diversions

That's a shame. So close and yet so far!

 

[JenniZinc]

You sound amazing, chubby, big boobs, natural body hair

I'm about as 'mumsy' as you can get, even though I'm not a mum

I assume you’re talking about Maslins Beach 40 years ago it used to be crowded we used to go on a regular basis and used to meet up with a few swingers but also we seemed to attract single males hoping to join us amazing how many used to dig holes so they would be more comfortable while checking out the ladies. We met up with some nice guys there and my wife knew what she was getting, those were the days

No, it's Sunnyside in Mornington Victoria. My farm is in the Yarra Valley, so not too long to get there, even if it's 40 years between visits

Can’t say we’ve been there we used to go to a couple of quiet beaches in Victoria but they weren’t nudist beaches but nudists used them discreetly of course the voyeurs were always somewhere close
