Momof 2 boys Posted September 6, 2006 #1 Share Posted September 6, 2006 Okay how topless are theses Beaches? Have 2 children, but want to go to one of these. Have been to Curasao and some topless there and my boys paid hardley any attention. Boys are 12 and 10. Has anyone seen any nudity on these beaches? Can deal with my boys with some topless but not nudidty,although they would probably laugh at first than ignore it. Also are there any jet skies there....:D Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Barflymon Posted September 10, 2006 #2 Share Posted September 10, 2006 The restaurants you listed are all on Orient Beach, the clothing optional beach. Orient has several watersports operators and one or two of those floating trampoline things. As you said they harldy paid attention, don't worry be topless!

As for nudity, the occasional nude person will walk by (there is a Naturist Resort at the extreme south end of the Orient beach). I have been to Orient Beach many times and I have never seen child upset by the occasional nude person strolling by. THey may gawk at the first one, but then they ignore the rest. There are lots of things to do on Orient Beach - including jet skiis. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We took our daughter two years ago. We saw an older couple walking hand in hand, completely 'au natural'. She kind of giggled, and then said "boy, I bet that feels good feelin' the breeze everywhere". I bet she's right, but I'm not about to try it! She was 8 at the time. I would think 10 and 12 year old boys will notice... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's she's too young to know or consider is the joy of topless swimming at the warm ocean waters (love that bouyancy factor--now that feels nice). And don't count yourself out of "trying" it sometime. Perhaps not until your DD is grown and on her own and one day you decide to be brave.:D It really does feel nice to sunbathe topless (when we're on a beach that allows it of course). beachchick Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the very bottom of the page are some disclaimers, including: "Please be aware that St. Maarten's beaches are similar to those found in European countries, where swimwear and other attire are optional. Nudity or topless bathing may be observed." http://disneycruise.disney.go.com/dcl/en_US/ports/excursionListing?name=StMaartenExcursionsLandingPage Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
