Will be there in a month. Was wondering about the condition of the sand on the beach. Can you walk barefoot? Is there any debris around?

Beach along the water edge is great, you can go barefoot but be cautious, there is debris and have found some glass. The sand does seem to be filling in as there are less rocks in the water than a week ago but that can change quickly.

Anybody find any nails, with or without boards. Id like to walk AN the length of Orient with my metal detector. I wonder if they have metal detectirs with Carib cup holders? Maybe have to get a beer hat.

I wonder how long nails would last before being completely dissolved by the salt water?

Someone beat you to it with metal detector last week. Sand very good shape, we've been up & down it for days & had no problems personally.

What can you comment on issues between nudists and textiles and Club O?

We spent most days of the last 2 weeks on club o chairs. Club O has had the only chairs on the entire beach. Chez .Leandra has chairs & will have them out shortly & others will follow but for now, Cedric & Alain from club o are trying to keep about 5 umbrellas at Pedro's end for textiles as there are no other chairs. All the rest of the chairs are clothing optional. There are lots of chairs to sit on. You will be welcome by Cedric, Alain, everyone at Perch Lite & Roseo at massage booth with open arms,hugs, kisses & handshakes. Club O beach has never been more friendly to nudists & textiles & families. You will NOT be disappointed whether you are nudist or textile. We are not textiles.
