You know I wish I knew what your name was, as I feel silly addressing a post to Hdrdr. But there unfortunately IS no Club O at the moment, only the Perch Lite. And, as far as I know, no security at this point. And again, I will state that French law says that no one can take your picture without your consent. No one will confiscate any camera or delete photos unless the person is taking pictures of people that don't wish their pictures taken. I frankly don't know what authority they ever had to confiscate cameras, probably only that the gendarmes said they wouldn't do anything about it if they did. But regardless, it's a moot point UNLESS someone is taking pictures of people who don't want their picture taken.

We've been going to Club O beach since 1989. I'm sure that someone who didn't have anything better to do has taken my picture on many occasions and I really couldn't care less. But more importantly, I don't GET this 'me versus them' mentality that some folks--not necessarily you--have about the Club Orient beach. The beach and Club O were always clothing optional. Which means that anyone can walk there on the beach or sit down on the sand or rent a chair or bring their own chair. And that's fine with me. It's a beach, a beautiful beach, where people should relax. If going to that beach or talking about it makes someone so uptight, they aren't getting what the place is supposed to be.
