Nude Sunbathing in Baja

ckiefer - 2-15-2009 at 11:30 AM

Anyone know what the regulations are on nude sunbathing on the beaches in Baja?
How about partial nudity? As in top-less, g-string, thong, or any combination thereof.

Bet you thought there would be a photo attached here, didn't you? :lol::lol::lol::lol:

Tecalote beach La Paz you will see topless, Mexicans or take your pick.

Talk about setting yourself up for a sexual assault- probably by the police back at the station. I do hope you meant for tourists- I really do appreciate that most Mexican women swim fully clothed.

shari - 2-15-2009 at 12:04 PM

it is rare here to even see a bathing suit...yup...women if they go near the ocean are fully clothed...you can get thrown in jail for nudity so only nude sunbath where you are sure there are no mexicans around to report you or be offended....remote areas recommended. Wonder if I can get busted by my all over tan?

Bajaboy - 2-15-2009 at 12:12 PM

I know of a great beach in Asuncion that is known for epic nude sunbathing:yes::yes:

shari - 2-15-2009 at 01:11 PM

yeah thanks for asking permission this time....that photowas before I had my hair cut and Juan lent me his thong!

Years ago we were camped on a beach at Conception Bay. It was Easter week-----lots of Mexicans and gringos camping along the shore that week. A young gringo couple just down the beach from us was sunbathing nude----------5 Mexican men from a camp next to ours walked down the beach with machetes in their hands to "talk" to the couple. Next thing we knew the gringo man had his swim suit on, but the women was still nude---------I think we observed a "double standard" here. :lol:

Whew..... thought you were gonna drag out the thong pics!:lol:

Hey Shari, what do the local hombres think about yer man wearing a thong?

:o

Bajahowodd - 2-15-2009 at 01:34 PM

Bringing this back full circle, just want ckiefer to not get lost in all the frivolity. Shari is correct. It is illegal. And it is mostly culturally offensive. Never understood how it could be so universally embraced in Europe, and reviled in Mexico. Anyway, if you try it, make sure there's no company around. There's no shortage of empty beaches.

Bajafun777 - 2-15-2009 at 03:04 PM

It depends how many people are doing the nude sunbathing, partying, in public view of children, etc. If there are no children around, a large number doing it, and nobody being involved in inappropriate things on the beach while nude have seen nobody screaming about it. It is not very oftern that you run into total nudity it is usually the topless thing for the women and thongs, thongs, thongs, are always OK<OK:OK!! Now, that doesn't mean that if you are by yourself with your girlfriend off on a secluded beach that if soldiers or federal cops come upon you they won't take you in. So, I guess the best answer is do so at your own risk but if you do so try to do it with a very large group. Now, I use to, I said use to, have some pictures of these nude sunbathers that people emailed me but I did not look at them that closely to see what beaches they may have been at:lol::O Later----------------------- bajafun777

BajaGringo - 2-15-2009 at 03:17 PM

I fail to see where the big difference is anymore between the tiny suits some women wear and total nudity. I mean it's only about 4 or 5 square inches of material anymore.

Not that I would be complaining, mind you...

:lol: :lol: :lol:

Timo1 - 2-15-2009 at 03:21 PM

4 or 5 square inches of material
$300
The view
priceless

vandenberg - 2-15-2009 at 03:29 PM

Been a few places were nude sun bathing was considered normal. Lots of European topless beaches. Still found that most folks who shed their attire would be much more pleasing to the eye if they stayed fully clothed, as not to embarrass the regular populace. Some could even improve on that by wearing a nun habit.:no::no:

To try to get an eyefull of the candy usually portrayed in magazines, you would have to travel far and wide.:biggrin:

On Saint Martin Island and St. Bart all of the beaches are nude and I can definately say the whole run of each beach. I say that because I was just astonished when these young hard bodies walked out to where I was sitting drinking a cold one of course, stripped off and layed out right by me and me without a camera the world just isn't fair sometimes. I got up after watching them to see if they were going to stay in such undress by me without even a word of excuse me do you mind. I then walked the the whole beach and sure enough everyone just about totally naked and running into the ocean jumping up and down laughing etc., well something like that to the best that I can remember. Yes, the next day I took my camera but when I got home these pictures disappeared off my camera. I have a strong guess I know someone that I have been with for 34 years had something to do with it:light::spingrin:!! Later-------- bajafun777

Vandenberg-I know what you mean. What comes to mind for me is on the Black Sea. While I'm totally blown away by the amazing beauty of young Ukranian women, their mothers had to labor under the old Soviet regime, which took its toll. It is absolutely mindblowing to see those 50-something Ukranian women in the buff. Nightmares.

Bajahowodd - 2-15-2009 at 04:37 PM

No one called the policia?

ELINVESTIG8R - 2-15-2009 at 04:38 PM

Nah Shari was cool and did not notify the local Jefe on the poor dope.

Bajahowodd - 2-15-2009 at 04:40 PM

Sounds like voyeurism to me.

Bajahowodd - 2-15-2009 at 05:08 PM

Trouble is that out on the beach, there's no pixelation.

Steve&Debby - 2-15-2009 at 05:56 PM

Several years ago I went on a trip to Spain.In Spain it is no big deal,right in the hotel at the swimming pool there was topless bathing.At first it was pretty exciting,but after a while it is just another beach.You could tell which one were the American women,they were the ones with the red boobs.:biggrin::yes: It's like looking at a magazine "YOU CAN SEE THEM,BUT YOU CAN'T TOUCH THEM":o:rolleyes::wow:;)

Santiago - 2-15-2009 at 05:58 PM

Hey Pomp - where's that picture??

Bajahowodd - 2-15-2009 at 06:04 PM

Had an even weirder experience in Martinique. We were at a hotel that was designed in a U shape. Pool was in the center of the U. Hotel restaurant was there, too. It was sort of like a floor show! No beach in sight.

Mango - 2-15-2009 at 06:05 PM

I've been all over Mexico and I have rarely found a "nude" beach. As Shari pointed out.. Nudism is illegal in Mexico.

If you are really looking for a nude beach in Mexico.. find a remote one.. or got Zipolite beach on the mainland.

I've been to several beaches, Playa del Carmen, etc.. etc.. where European tourism is frequent where toplessness is not frowned upon.. in fact.. it is usually smiled upon. If your a guy.. keep your shorts on or get a hotel room.. :lol:

Bajahowodd - 2-15-2009 at 06:08 PM

That is true. The Cancun area, by virtue of relative distance, attracts many Europeans. Although I must comment that having been to many beaches in Europe, the topless thing is not universal.

shari - 2-15-2009 at 08:08 PM

FYI....Juan only has thongs for me!!!! on a very very very private beach....where i go thongless....ahhhh baja...and for the record, I have never been a thong fan but I admit...Juan looks some good in one....keep an open mind amigos and put yourself in my thongs....

vacaenbaja - 2-15-2009 at 11:34 PM

Juan, thong time no see.

Bajahowodd - 2-15-2009 at 11:57 PM

Auto-wedgie.

BajaGringo - 2-16-2009 at 11:28 AM

Nude beaches sound "interesting" but my experience has been that you find more overweight / over 50 on those beaches than hard bodies younger than 30.

Maybe I just went to the wrong beaches...

Bajahowodd - 2-16-2009 at 02:59 PM

Depends on where. In countries that are more liberal about public nudity, you will find a vast array of sizes and genders. Seems like most of the unofficial nude beaches in So CA attract old gay men. IMHO

BajaGringo - 2-16-2009 at 03:00 PM

Not touching that one with a ten foot pole...


:wow::wow::wow:

Bajahowodd - 2-16-2009 at 04:33 PM

Are you bragging?

So thong....

Mexray - 2-16-2009 at 04:47 PM

....it's been good to know you...:P


I've always wondered why it's such a big to some about seeing nude sunbathers at a beach! I'm talking about 'sunbathing' here, not socially unacceptable activities.


IMHO, if you don't like looking at 'nude' bodies - don't look! That seems to be the 'European' attitude, as you'll see a mixture of clothed and non clothed sunbathers on many beaches there...now what's wrong with that?

Oso - 2-16-2009 at 04:56 PM

Not beaches but at the hot springs of my wife's tierra, Hidalgo, indigenous Otomi don't have a problem. Men often bathe nude. Women usually keep a skirt over the lower body but don't think twice about going topless. This is my memory from 40 years ago. Today this is probably only true of the remoter springs used only by Indians. The biggest one, El Tepeh, has been developed and attracts many mestizos from Pachuca and the DF. Since it's not free anymore, the natives probably don't even go there now.

Hey, ELINVESTI8--- How u do that animation? It's cool.

ELINVESTIG8R - 2-16-2009 at 05:53 PM

Thanks Doug. I found it on the internet and did a little colorization.

BajaGringo - 2-16-2009 at 09:08 PM

My question is why you look for a nude beach when there are so many around that are 99% nude???

I could look at this all day. If I wasn't married of course...

:rolleyes: :rolleyes: :rolleyes:
