Sydney already has at least two official nude beaches that I know of - why not go to one of them? Beaches have been provided for nudists - and people have the right to go to the others without seeing your spotty dick and skanky arse if they don’t want to!

The simple solution is to patrol the beach and arrest people who are engaging in lewd conduct. People have such ridiculously prusdish hangup about nudity — they assume if anyone is naked there’s sex going on. And that’s just immoral. *rolleyes*

They were going to crack down on the beach here in Christchurch, every one knows it’s a nude beach and they don’t mind it like that, it’s the dune stalkers that are going to ruin it for all, just like your beach. We have been told if we want to be nude we have to put up our Naturalist yellow flag. Until recently I had never heard of it, I just like to be naked in the sun.

Just to clarify this: is nude bathing illegal because it is deemed to be obsene exposure under law, or is the status of beaches a grey area? If it is illegal, then you have no defence at present. It is not about “saving a beach”, it can ony be about changing the law.
Probably the local government is on a fundraising drive. If there is any chance this can be a reliable source of revenue, they will be treat it as such. The only option is proactive lobbying.

Would you engage in civil disobedience in order to “save” the beach?

Yep, it’s the Christians again. A happy-clappy was voted onto Randwick Council a while back, and the crack-down is the result. Given the “behaviours” that michael mentioned normally go on in the bush, it is unlikely the reason for the council action. It is more likely a sad little person who considers his own naked body to be dirty. Who knows how these people breed……….?

I enjoy the same nude beach Brenton, but am honestly not surprised by this. This beach is a regular cruising ground, and sexual behavior is often visible both on the beach and more so on the rocks on the headland side. I’ve seen blowjobs, rimjobs, fucking and group action all occur out in the open for all to see and then complain about. I’ve even see two guys going for it in the water right in front of the beach in full view of the carpark and road, and in front of the people fishing off the rocks. It regularly features on squirt.org as a cruising area.
Add to this the condoms lazy guys leave behind and the dirty old men constantly prowling and jerking off.
I’m disappointed by the closure, but am not surprised at all. It’s a beautiful little beach, but too exposed to the broader public. As per usual, ruined for all by a few.

Oh no! So much for your beaches being the stuff of jealousy if you do nothing. Organize and fight for nudity now! Something must be causing this crackdown; if it is sexual behavior then it has to stop.
