It’s not like Black’s beach is a secret enclave, or that nudity would never be expected there.
Who planned their nature hike?
That is what I was wondering. I remember Black’s Beach and I have not lived in San Diego for over 20 years. It is not new and, certainly, not a secret.
That’s where the ‘outrage’ should be directed. These Nude beachers did not just pop up like a Jack in the Box at a Wal-Mart, they were at a Nationally known Nude Beach.
In my lifetime I have been to one nude beach. A few of us doing a long beach walk that had no idea there was a nude beach near us we quickly turned around because we were over dressed of course.
I've also stayed at a Hotel that had a "clothing optional" adult pool and it was the only one with the bar.
Both times I can tell you most of the people engaging in the serious communing with nature that goes on at these places are people you absolutely do not want to see doing so.
However there were a few roses nestled among all those thorns.
Indeed, Black's Beach is known nationwide.
Who planned their nature hike?
Someone with a devilish sense of humor.
No kidding, Black’s beach has been famous as a nude beach for decades, I used to do my night time, solo cliff climbing there by the hang gliding area.
“Black’s Beach in San Diego is the largest nude beach in the United States and is popular with Southern Californian nudists and naturists. Originally including the current Torrey Pines State Beach, Black’s Beach was the first and only public nude beach in the country for several years in the mid-1970s. Because Black’s Beach was traditionally recognized as a clothing optional beach, nudity is tolerated for the portion of the beach that is managed by the state park. Until 1977, the city portion of Black’s Beach was posted as “swimsuit optional”; in that year, nudity was prohibited on that part of the beach.”
Who planned their nature hike?
Either a straight scout leader or a gay scout leader who wanted the boys, and himself, to see ding a lings.
“It’s not like Black’s beach is a secret enclave, or that nudity would never be expected there.”
Exactly! Black’s Beach is very well known all up and down the California coast. Just like Davenport, just above Santa Cruz.
