On Friday 4 May 18, I visited Eastney beach, Portsmouth for my first nude experience away from home.
It was a beautiful sunny day and the weather was very warm. I made my way from the car park, walked along the nudie beach and found a suitable gap.
I placed my groundsheet on the pebbles, and without hesitation or embarassment just took my clothes off. There I stood, completely naked for the first time away from home. I felt completely at ease and relaxed.
I thought to myself, if this is what naturism is like, then I'm hooked.
I've heard there is a gay/lesbian area somewhere along this part of the beach and I could have been sat amongst them. Well if I was, I didn't know it, they didn't bother me and I didn't bother them.
There was a sea wall right behind me, and I was laid out flat on my sheet. People were walking along the wall to and fro naked and clothed, and I couldn't have cared less. There were clothed people passing by walking their dogs taking no notice of anyone nude. The only thing that drove me off the beach was the heat.
I had factor 50 suncream on, but still didn't want to get my bare bits burned after three hours in the sun. I'd felt completely at home and I plan to go there many more times.

Thanks for sharing this good reminder of the simple joy of naturism.

Well done Codge. Eastney is indeed very nice. I tend to use Meon Shore more these days simply because it's quicker to get to.
Hopefully see you on one of those one day.
Boundaries are there to be stretched!
A lovely report, Codge.
As far as gays, etc. on mainstream naturist beaches are concerned, they are there to enjoy the naturism and not for sexual or hook-up purposes and the genuine naturist gays will soon tell the transgressors where to go.

Sounds like a really positive experience Codge, it's always a great feeling to just be naked outdoors. I find it very relaxing. A couple of weeks ago I did my first naked walk, that was really liberating.
Good to hear you enjoyed it. Most of my naked moments are at home, now weather is improving it's going to be great to get out.
Being naked is one of the simple joys of life.
Thanks for sharing your experience Codge and I'm glad you enjoyed it. It was useful to read your account as Eastney is on my list of beaches to visit this year. Who knows I might see you there on a nice day if you are planning to go again even though we are unlikely to meet.

Many thanks for all your lovely comments on my first public nude experience.
Since my last trip out, my totally textile Wife actually suggested we visit Studland beach, which we did on Tuesday 8 May. I stripped off as soon as we arrived in the designated area, then we put the beach tent up.
It was the very first time my Wife had ever seen naked people, which was an eye opener for her. As predicted she kept all her clothes on.
We had a very pleasant day there and both went into the sea to cool off as it was so hot, her in a swimsuit.
There were the usual merekats at the edge of the dunes, but they were not any problem. One of them seemed to have a permanent erection (at least an hour) while he stood around. Another first for my Wife. She couldn't believe how he kept it up for so long, it baffled us both.
We are off to Studland again tomorrow 15 May, again at my Wifes behest.
She has certainly had a change of heart, since last year when she said I could only go to a nudist beach over her dead body. Now she actually suggesting more visits. No pressure from me at all.
I'm loving it of course, and dont mind at all if she comes with me.

A family friendly place then. Must take my twelve year old daughter there.
Great post Code
I managed to get to Easterny beach once, Being a male on my own I still felt very welcomed and not uncomfortable in any way, I have a lovely few hours in the sun there and hope I can get to go back there one day.
Jealous of you going to Studland it's been on my wish list for years
Happy travels 👍
Codge - great that your wife at the moment will not strip off but is OK going to nudist locations - almost in almost all you will not see any erections or mere cats. Being able to go to such locations is very important and I suggest many other places than just beaches including Abbey house check the events page for the CO days.

There are many more as well listed on BN website (and here), including beaches, swims and clubs - but walks and garden areas I like the most.
