timmycs said:pat said: While I wasn't thrilled with his post either, technically he is at least partially correct. The accepted norm these days for nudism is at Club O and not the entire length of Orient. Thus the 8:30 gendarme walks. Times change and so does the island, whether we like it or not! <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/handshake.gif" alt="" /> -- and the reason I thanked Jaybird. I still maintain Scubamans opinion "but I don't want to get that visual on the other part of Orient where I go to" was not required nor did it add any info to this topic. My question is valid as to why anyone would visit a beach that at specific times of the morning you might see a nude walker when you are intolerant of the body, and there are plenty of other beaches on the island. So why should a small percentage of the people make a larger percentage uncomfortable? <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/duh.gif" alt="" /> Nudity has it's place but not on the whole stretch of Orient Beach. Read the signs.

Scotty said: This is an old thread so I wondering if there is a newer one I missed on this topic. We are planning on going to Orient tomorrow and if there is a place that a person can eat at and get their chairs free if they eat? If not, where do people recommend sitting and eating this year? Thanks. We just returned from a stay at La Playa. Chairs are $10. Not sure if eating there lowers that. But I can say the chairs, service, drinks, and food are great.

That's funny on the arrest Scotty!!!<img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Clapping.gif" alt="" /> My wife wasn't beach ready either when we first started visiting SXM, but now we stay at the Club, and she even does the early morning beach walk, sans top <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Joy.gif" alt="" />

No, that's not correct at all. Many people use the Club O beach and wear some clothing, full bathing suit, bathing suit bottom, pareo. It doesn't matter. No one cares, and regardless of what you wear, you will not stick out like a sore thumb by what you are wearing. If you do weird stuff or gawk openly, that's a different thing. Wear what you like on Club O beach. All are welcome.

Carol, I'm joking with my comments.
Carol, we didn't see too many people wearing clothes yesterday. No problem here. People can do what they want to. I had sunglasses on so they couldn't tell if I was gawking or not. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/Grin.gif" alt="" /> As for weird stuff, I always do weird stuff. I guess it's just what you consider weird. <img src="http://www.traveltalkonline.com/forums/images/graemlins/noevil.gif" alt="" />

Scotty--I knew you were joking. I was referring to chief's comments.
