Gotcha. We are not necessarily interested in resorts, nude campsites, or things of that nature. Just a spot or two where my wife and I could swim around naked for like an hour once in a while. I once again read posts this afternoon on a website (not this one) posted by skinny dippers that much of the fun for them is the thrill of risking getting caught. As said before, that's not us. To the contrary, we wouldn't necessarily mind being *seen*, but getting *caught* would drain all the fun out of it for us. If people look our way, happen to see us nude (in or out of the water) and say, "Oh, look, they're naked. Okay, whatever," then great. I mean, heck, for that matter, we might even invite some friends of ours with us to join in--solidarity. But risking a run-in with a trooper, park ranger, etc. is off the table. I looked up "Iowa swimming holes," too, but judging from the photos posted on a lot of the hits, they seem to be way too highly populated to allow for somewhat discreet, no-big-deal skinny dipping.
i would think that once you're in the water, you should be pretty safe. assuming iowa water looks more like ohio water than caribbean water, you can't see much of what's below the surface anyway. if someone shows up, just stay in the water until they're gone.
There may be swim nights as Daretobare mentions- good luck in finding somewhere. Once you have swum naked you don't wish to swim any other way.
If you find a place I suggest being nude before entering the water. Undressing while in the water just takes something away from the experience.
Why not a resort? You’d be amongst like minded people and I guarantee you’ll be a nudist for life. It’s a truly wonderful experience.
yes, our friends have a boat and we all get naked on it, three or four couples and we find a quiet bay and swim naked there
Seems to me that the Leo's here have larger concerns than skinnydippers. Keep away from contraband, you will be good
True, we belong to a 'non-landed' club that rents out a pool twice a month during the winter months for nude swims. The wife is often one of only two or three naked women there with about 20-30 naked guys. She loves all the attention she gets at them.
From how you're describing yourselves, I'd say that you should just get a pool. Even if a neighbor did get a glimpse, you can't be arrested in your own back yard as long as you've taken reasonable precautions. We've skinny dipped many times in various houses we've owned with pools, both just the two of us and with other couples. And, if you ever vacation to Florida, the Canaveral National Seashore has one area (5) that is, legally, clothing optional. And it's a really long stretch of beach so you can usually find a fairly private place to go into the ocean. And, if someone does pass by, they're there for the same reason and won't bother you. Also, someone else mentioned a boat. We've done that before too. Just find a secluded spot in the river or lake, turn off the engine, strip down and jump in. If someone does come by just don't get back into the boat until they're out of sight.
We have gone to some friends houses that have pools and swam naked with them, naked cookouts and games. It's better to have friends with pools and boats than to have one myself - and besides, they love seeing my wife naked, and she loves it too
I always are amazed how many of you guys have own pools or friends with some. Here usually only very rich people have private swimming pools. So we need to go to some natural possibilities like lakes, creeks or the sea shore. Anyway, usually it's not a problem to find a spot where skinnydipping is possible, you just have to go through the worls with your eyes open (ar ask a local).
whereabouts are you? it definitely has to do with location. like in florida, a pool is practically part of any house, like a bathroom. here in ohio, it's definitely a minority that own them, but a lot of middle class and even some on the poorer end have those little above ground pools in their backyard.
