 User Description: Gunnison Nude Beach in NJ Re view edGunnison Beach - When New Jersey Senate Bill 1912 effectively outlawed nudity on the state's public shores in 1999, naked beach fans in the tri-state region were dealt an important blow.One notable exception to the law, nonetheless, was Gunnison Beach. Situated on the Sandy Hook peninsula just a couple miles south of New York City, Gunnison Beach is part of the Gateway National Recreation Area that is owned and managed by the National Park Service.Gunnison Beach is formally split into two places clothed on the northern half and clothes-optional on the southern half (it's likely a surprise to no one that the clothes-optional side is far more popular). The clothes-optional side is further subdivided (unofficially) into a straight area and a gay area (at the southernmost end of the plage). On any given sunny summer weekend, 3,000 or more bathers can be located on Gunnison Beach.Gunnison Unclothed Beach NJ [Source: http://gunnisonbeach.org]The setting on Gunnison is dynamic and pleasing. The regulars say the level of conduct is preferable to most clothed seashores. Part of the reason could be that Gunnison (along with the remainder of Sandy Hook) is continuously patrolled by Park Service Rangers. While harassment of naturists by textiles and sometimes even fellow nudists is a rare occurrence, the Rangers have little tolerance for it and immediately react to any reports of difficulties.That is an active group on the strand as well called Ranger World, whose leaders monitor the region for unwelcome conduct. Also, even with several thousand people in attendance, there's still a boatload of open playa. This allows everyone to sp read out and minimize any disturbance to fellow beachgoers. Those who wish to drink and/or listen to music in groups may set up camp far from the bulk of the bunch.The under-40 age group is also well-represented, easily making up between one third and one half of the weekend bunch on average. There exists also a noticeable presence of younger children and families. In terms of ethnicity, on a just percent basis, the majority of people who come to Gunnison are White.But individuals from other ethnic backgrounds also make a good show of force. Recently, on Gunnison Beach on-line forum, an African American girl inquired whether or not she should consider coming to the plage. She was worried that she'd be the only African-American there, but nothing could be further from the truth.While public bare beaches can often be the Wild West of nudism, I advocate Gunnison to anyone who is thinking about going, regardless of age, race or background. If your impression of the Jersey shoreline comes from your television show of exactly the same name, you are really missing out on one of the pearls of naturism on the east coast. The water is clean, the people are great, and with the New York skyline visible in the distance what more could you request?Naked Gunnison Beach NJ Sandy Hook Bare Beach [Source: geologycafe.com]IF YOU GO: The bare beach is easily accessible from New York either by car or the aptly-named Seastreak ferry. There is certainly no admission fee to the Gateway National Recreation Area, but there's a $15-per-vehicle day-to-day parking fee. An unlimited-visit season parking pass can be purchased for $75.Vehicles arriving outside of those hours do not have to pay (the place is open from 5AM to 10PM). On http://wildaboutmars.com/__media__/js/netsoltrademark.php?d=nudebeaches.xyz during summer time, it truly is best to arrive at the park by 11AM. On fine days, the entry is frequently closed from 11AM to 3PM or after. Lifeguards are on duty from 10AM to 6PM. At 6PM, everyone is required to escape the water before the lifeguards go off duty. But once the lifeguards leave, everybody is welcome to return to swimming (at their own risk, obviously).Alcohol is permitted, but not in glass containers. There is certainly a snack stand on the playa that sells a limited selection of hot dogs, chips and non-alcoholic drinks. There's a similar bite stand at the entry to Gunnison.If you want a sit-down meal, there's one restaurant on Sandy Hook The Sea Gull's Nest. They serve great standard plage/pub fare. They're often full during peak hours, though, so a late afternoon/early evening visit is recommended. There are other restaurants quite close to the entry of the park if you desire to dine before entering or after leaving. http://denver-rtd.org/__media__/js/netsoltrademark.php?d=nudism.buzz is a bit of a walk from the Gunnison parking lot out to the strand (about 350 yards or so). If you're bringing quite a lot of items (coolers, totes, etc.), you should consider bringing a proper beach handcart with wide wheels to haul things.The path out to the playa is about 50 yards long it's loose sand the remaining portion of the way. Normal handcarts with narrow wheels will quickly get stuck. Tents and umbrellas are allowed, and since there's no other shelter on the plage it really is strongly suggested that you bring something other than merely sunblock!This Unclothed Beach Website About Gunnison Beach in NJ Was Published By -Links:NPS Fee Schedule for Sandy HookGunnison @ WikipediaGunnison Beach newsgroupSea Gull's Nest restaurantLabels: new jersey, naked beach, skinny dippingCategory: Bare Beach, Unclothed Outside and Naked In Nature, Social Nudity WebsitesAbout the Author (Author Profile)Erik Jakobsen works in New York City, lives in New Jersey and continues to be an enthusiastic nudist for 25 years.
