Best place to skinny dip?
 
Okay, I'm going to try and liven things up here on a Sat. evening. Where is the best place you have ever skinny dipped? (warmest, most scenic (in terms of natural surroundings or other dippers) best romantic moment etc.) Tell us your stories!

The Four Seasons in Jimbaran Bay, Bali is a series of private Villas, all with their own plunge pool. A pretty good spot for a honeymoon if I do say so.

My grandfathers lake in NC on a hot summer night, with just fireflies to provide the light.
No romance then, just fun :)

This Michigander loved Hippie Hollow at Lake Travis, Austin, TX

{Hey... Texas is good for something!}

My family's lake/pond on a hot summer night in Upstate NY -- in Mitchellsville -- a bunch of friends all went in late at night...no romance, but so much fun.

Haulover Beach in Miami is a nude beach so I'd imagine they don't make you put your bathing suit on to swim.

If you swim in unfamiliar pond or stream then beware of leaches. They can cling where you don't want

ethaete Jun 21st, 2003 05:58 PM

Leaches??? Aww... they're nothing! Just make sure you do a full body check post-dip! Yes, I am a tiny bit of a hick....!! ;)

The pool in my backyard....

The geothermally heated ponds on the Big Island. About the size of 10 hot tubs but surrounded by Palm trees and under the all the stars.

Can't tell you because then you will see my white moon in the moonlight.

I do want to know where the BI pools are though.

jumped off a boat and swam around while we were in a cove in British Colombia. There were a few other boats around but I don't think anyone really noticed. Good thing too...the water was cold in B.C. Also, my summer job is a bartender on the beach in GA whenever the servers and I survive a crazy night. we run straight into the ocean from our deck bar stripping as we run..but only a few get completely naked..what a shame...good post idea!!

puddin Jun 22nd, 2003 04:57 AM

hey blueaguave, thanks for the compliment on the post idea...I had been reading some of the other post replies and many people were saying that things were getting boring, so...call it my attempt at spicin' things up! As for my own answer to this question (I should give one, in all fairness) I have decided that my husband and I should do more night swimming...I could only think of one time at a very nice B&B in Vermont...we had the pool all to ourselves late at night, heated and everything...but that's it! Maybe when we go on vacation in a few weeks...I think the water in Florida is warm this time of year....

The BI pools are around Kapoho. We rented a house and leave in 9 days!

At your nearby AANR club, of course.

When in Austin...

Hippy Hollow

In the mini-Tivoli fountain at the Olive Garden on South Road in Poughkeepsie, while high on cheap white wine and endless breadsticks.

When in Scottsdale, at my condo pool.

Bootman4U Jun 25th, 2003 06:23 AM

If you're as hot looking as you THINK you are then my pool is open 24 hours a day/night!
