What are your recollections about skinny dipping?

I am collecting stories about swimming naked.

So far, this is all I have found:

Do a zity search for "skinny dipping"

When you are young and it is you first time skinny dipping with a date there is usually a bit of apprehension. Then surprising l that that melts and your swim gets better. Seems natural and little has changed. We were both were more play full and , some body exploration crept into the mix. The memories are so good because it felt so right and free and that chance of jeopardy that crossed your mind every so often made skinny dipped' that much more exciting. We did a lot of that summer at night and later found spots for the day. Comes back plain as day. Still love nude beaches and resorts makes you feel as if you have been some place that you want to come to very soon.Always enjoyable. Club Orient was a favorite because it was so convenient

Have done that many times over the years. Some are comfortable with it, many are not and won’t participate. I have just never been shy. So, I have many times, including daytime.

I used to teach young adults. I remember (after having forgotten!) that I was once invited out for a drive late one evening by a young married guy - one of the students that I had befriended - and his equally young wife, and that eventually we stopped beside a darkened, deserted beach. The couple saw fit to strip down and plunge into the surf for a frolic. I said that I would just wait for them - but they started pressuring me to join them! The outcome was that I, too, stripped off and briefly joined them. I felt that my own self-image of ‘Ken, the good guy’ required me to obey them that night. Note: I haven't done anything quite like that since then!

My dad and step mother had a pool in the backyard and even at like 12 once we were allowed to swim alone my best friend and his sister 10, and I would remove our bathing suits and skinny dip. I can remember getting out nude to use the diving board and my step mother walking out and saying OMG! She just turned and went back into the house and then I got a stern talking to later and we had to be more discreet and only do it when she was not home. Later all the neighborhood boys would skinny dip and one day all the girls grabbed our bathing suits and we all remained in the pool for awhile until they went inside. Once we were older teens it was usually boys and girls.

I come from a long line of skinny dippers, back at least to grandparents, at the lake.

Minnesota is filled with lakes, and those lakes are filled with skinny dippers. Not this month, but come summer!

Not nude beaches, although we have those. Just any cottage with waterfront, especially a dock, has skinny dippers. Overstatement? Okay, some. Still it would be a rare cottage dock that at some point hadn't been host to skinny dipping and lots of docks would host every summer.

With my wife, during a holiday in some naturist villages, in France, we always bathed naked. First experience of naturism and first experience of bathing naked. Very, very pleasant and stimulating.

A few years ago, in Italy, we were in a dinghy and we reached an isolated beach, reachable only by sea and we were alone; we took advantage of the opportunity to stay in the water naked for almost an hour. Then other people arrived and the magic ended...
