Interesting info. I remember when you could stroll the entire length of Orient Beach in the buff first thing in the morning (like before 8 a.m.) All the way up to Mont Vernon and back. But, several years ago as the number of beach bars and restaurants grew and construction was ramped up, even that was frowned on. I never did this north of "the rocks", but there were many people who did and enjoyed this. With the newly constructed beach bars returning this past year they appear to be set back further than before. So, why not let people strut their stuff in the early morning hours before the cruise ship guests arrive? Has anyone out there given this a try lately?
