I've only gone topless. Have always kept my bottoms on except maybe walking into and out of the water. That's just what I'm comfortable with. Hubby is always nude. Not an issue either way. If you're facing the water on Orient we go all the way up to the right. Usually NO ONE there. We take our towels, a cooler, music and that's all you need. Always a fun afternoon. We might make small talk with people walking by, but it's no big deal at all. Don't overthink it. Just have fun!
