My First Time at a Nude Beach

By Emi Tsuruta, First posted May 13, 2003

Hi, it's Emi again.  I guess I told you a while back that there's a nude beach not too far from our campus.  I kind of had mixed feelings about going.  For one thing, I wasn't sure if I wanted to take Ryosuke.  I had this image of me lying on the beach with all these people around, and then he comes over and climbs on top of me with everyone watching.  Even if we didn't get arrested, I swear I'd die of embarrassment.  In any case, my classmates who told me about the beach say that it is just for naturists, and sex is not allowed (Can you imagine if it was?).

On the bright side though, I was really curious about what it would be like.  I mean I'd never been to a nude beach before, and I wanted to know what kind of people go there and how they act.  I know some people on campus who said they'd been, but hearing them talk about it is not the same as being there yourself.

I guess my main worry though was whether I would have enough nerve to actually get naked on the beach.  I mean my boyfriend, Ryosuke, is always trying to get me naked in places where there's a chance we might get caught.  What frightened me though was at the nude beach, you know for sure that people are going to see you, and you have to pretend like you are not excited or anything.  I didn't know if I could actually go through with it, but I did want to try.

Anyway, the first time, I just went down alone to check it out.  That was last year, early in the summer after I just got back from Japan.  Ryosuke had a summer job, and I'd been sitting around the house all day waiting for him to call, but finally he phoned to say he'd have to work late.  I was kind of disappointed, but anyway, I had some supper, and then I went to the university just to read some stuff in the library.  I couldn't really get into it.  I wanted to go out and do something, so I finally decided to go see if I could find the beach.  It was late, so I knew there probably wouldn't be anyone there, but I at least wanted to see what it looked like.

At the back of our campus, there is, like, this big forest.  You follow this path through the woods, and eventually you come to wooden steps that lead down the cliff side to the beach.  It was so dark, and at first I couldn't find any signs, but this guy at school called Jim had explained to Satomi and me how to get there.  I guess he kind of has the hots for Satomi because he keeps inviting us to go with him.  We haven't said yes or anything, but anyway, it was nice of him to tell us how to get there.

It was a bit spooky walking around in the woods alone at night.  I wasn't really sure if it was safe, but it's right by campus, and if anything bad happened, I could phone campus police.  The woods were pretty quiet though, and it was a nice night out, so I wasn't too worried.  It was a long walk down the hill.  At first, I wasn't sure that I'd found the right place, but when I finally got down to the bottom of the stairs, there was a little box with some pamphlets on naturism in it.

I stepped out onto the beach, but it was so dark it was hard to tell if there was anyone there or not.  I kind of stood there for a while, my heart beating really loudly in my chest, trying to get used to the darkness.  It was a lot bigger than I expected.  Off to the left, there is a sandbar that goes way out into the bay almost like a peninsula.  I walked down to the shore, and stared into the dark, looking to see if there was anything out there.  There was one dark patch off towards the sand bar, but it wasn't moving, so I guess it must have been a piece of wood or something like that.

I wanted to see how warm the water was, so I set down my back pack, and took off my shoes and socks.  The soft sand felt nice on my bare feet.  I dipped my toe in the water, and it wasn't that cold.  I rolled up the cuffs of my jeans, and waded in a little, but the water splashed up, and my jeans got wet.  I walked back to where my bag was, and then took another look around.  All I could hear was the sound of the waves and the rustling of the leaves in the trees.  There was something moving in the trees, but I guess it was just the branches blowing in the wind.  I slowly undid my belt and the button on the front of my jeans.

'This is a nude beach after all.  There's nothing wrong with taking my clothes off,' I kept telling myself.  Still, I couldn't help feeling really nervous when I was pulling down my jeans and stepping out of them.  This is kind of embarrassing, but my panties had gotten wedged up into the crack of my buttocks, so I pulled them to straighten them out.  I could feel the breeze on my legs and tummy, and it was giving me butterflies.

Still wearing my panties and blouse, I waded out into the water again, and turned to look back at the trees just to make sure no one was watching.  I looked up at the treetops on top of the hill to see if I could see any of the university buildings, but the trees were too tall.  I came back out of the water, took a deep breath, slipped my panties off, and threw them towards where my bag was.  The breeze was tickling my pubic hair, and making me feel kind of high.  I quickly took off my blouse and bra, and put them on my bag too.  Once I was naked, I ran back out into the water, and dove right in.

It felt absolutely amazing to go for a swim in the nude.  I mean I used to do it when I was little, but this was different.  I felt so completely alive and free.  I wish I could do it all the time.

I swam around for a while, just in the shallow part near the shore, but eventually, I came back to shore, dried myself off with a handkerchief, and quickly pulled my blouse back on.  I felt exhilarated, but I was still worried about someone from the university coming down the hill and catching me in the nude.  I looked back toward the stairs.  It still seemed pretty quiet.  I wonder if I could go for a little walk.

I brushed the sand off my feet, put on my socks and shoes, and stood up.  On top I was still wearing just my blouse, but it was pretty long.  It had tails at the front and back that more or less covered everything, but the hem came way up in a slit on both sides.  If I did run into anyone, they might be able to tell I wasn't wearing anything underneath.  Worse, it was pretty windy, so every once in a while, the tails would fly up, and expose my bare pussy or behind.  I was so excited my whole body was shaking.  Maybe I should put my jeans back on before someone sees me.

I looked back up at the hill.  That's part of the nude beach too though, isn't it?  I nervously shoved my jeans and underwear into my backpack, closed it up, and pulled it on my back.  I looked down, and became more and more nervous about how silly I must look standing there in just this dressy white blouse flapping in the wind.  Still, I decided it was silly to be so shy on a nudist beach.  I set out for the stairs, holding my blouse down.  Still the feeling of the breeze between my legs was getting me very excited.

I made it to the stairs where I could at least hide behind the trees if I needed to.  I wonder how far I could go up the hill.  I stood there for a while wondering if I should even try, but eventually I got up the nerve, and headed up the steps.  Part way up, I stop fixing my blouse, and just let it blow around.  I don't know why, but I found it such a rush to be walking up the stairs almost naked like that.

When I got to the top of the hill, I peered out through the woods toward the road.  Maybe I should call Ryosuke, and let him know where I am.  I crouched down, so I was out of sight of the street, and dialed his number on my cell.  He answered, but he was on the bus on the way home.  I was about to tell him what I was doing, but before I got the chance, he said he was really tired and hung up.  I couldn't believe it.  Here I was walking near campus half naked, and he just hangs up.  Humph!

Still squatting down, I spread my legs open, and lifted up my blouse to take a peek at my pussy.  I was pretty wet down there, but kind of confused and upset too.  I knew I shouldn't be doing this, especially here right on the edge of campus, but I touched myself.  I just want you to know that I don't normally do things like that.  I ran my middle finger along my lips to get it wet, and then gently rubbed my pleasure spot.  I even pushed my finger inside me!  My whole body was shaking it felt so good, but I pulled it out before I came.  I stood up dazed, panting heavily.  I really wanted to have sex.  I was so frustrated that Ryosuke wouldn't see me.

I eventually got dressed, and went home, but it wasn't till the weekend that Ryosuke and I finally got together.  I never told him about going to the nude beach.

Anyway, I guess it was a few weeks after that, I finally convinced Satomi to come with me.  I'd been talking with her about it ever since that guy I told you about, Jim, started bugging us, and then one day, we saw him in the cafeteria again.  She turned him down for the hundredth time, so he went away.  I asked as innocently as I could,

"Aren't you interested to see what the beach is like?  It seems like everyone's talking about it."

"There's no way I'm going with some guy we barely know."  She seemed pretty serious, but there was something about the way she said it.

"What if you went with just me instead?"  I still haven't figured out how much Satomi knows about my ... well, my exhibitionist tendencies, but anyway, she just kind of looked at me for a while, and then confessed,

"I guess I am a little bit curious to see what it is like."

I took that as a yes, and we agreed to go, and check it out early the next morning.  We didn't want to go too late in the day, because we thought it might get crowded.  Actually, neither of us knew what to expect, 'cause I hadn't been yet during the day.   I don't think there are any nude beaches at all back home in Japan.

We decided that the best way to get an early start was if I slept over at her place, and we left from there.  I went home to get my towel and toothbrush and stuff, and tell my host mom I'd be staying at Satomi's.  I'm not sure if she believed me (Ryosuke had come over quite a few times that summer), but for once it was the truth.  I had supper with my host family, got packed, and headed over to Satomi's dormitory.

I'd been to her dorm a few times, but this was the first time I slept over.  I kind of envy her because she doesn't have to tell a host mom or whatever where she's going, but she says it's kind of noisy, so it's hard to study.  I also like it because some of the guys there are kind of hunky (I know I shouldn't say that, but it's true).  When we were walking through the hall to her room, every time we saw a cute guy I'd ask her to introduce me, but she'd always claim she didn't know them.  What really freaked me out was that even the washrooms and showers are co-ed.  Can you believe that?  I asked Satomi about it, but she says she showers late at night or early in the morning when no one is around.  I have to admit I was pretty excited about the whole thing, staying at her dorm and going to the nude beach.

I got to her dorm pretty late, so she lent me a pair of pajamas, and we got ready for bed.  I kept wondering if some guy was going to come in to the washroom while we were brushing our teeth, but no one did.  You could hear guys' voices in the hallway, and coming from the common room though.

In Satomi's room, it was so hot.  The dorm doesn't have air-conditioning, and so we had to sleep with the window open, but then you can hear the cars going by outside.  I took me a long time to fall asleep. I woke up in the middle of the night.  The pajamas Satomi had lent me were bulky and hot, so I ended up taking the bottoms off.  I guess I should have put some underwear on, but I figured we were going to the nude beach next day, so it didn't really matter if Satomi saw me walking around half-naked.  It felt cooler too, but the cool night air made me... well, you know, like, want to go to the washroom.

I got up, and opened the door as quietly as I could.  It was pitch black in Satomi's room, but out in the hall, the lights were still on.  I blinked in the bright light, and thought about putting my bottoms back on, but decided if I just dashed over to the washroom across the hall, I probably wouldn't meet anyone.  I did my business, then washed my hands, and came right back.

I paused for a minute at Satomi's door.  There seemed to be noise coming from down the hall.  I pulled my pj top down to cover my pussy, and tiptoed down to the common room.  Someone had left the TV on.  I peeked around the corner, but I couldn't see anyone, so I strode right in, planning to turn the TV off.  When I was halfway across the room, I suddenly realized that there was a guy sitting right there.  I hadn't seen him because he was sitting in the corner hunched down.  I jumped, and then realizing I was still half-naked, quickly pulled the hem back down over my pussy.  I'm not sure how much he saw, but he sat up, and stared right at me obviously surprised to see this Japanese girl gallivanting around in just a pajama top in his common room.  I pulled the hem down as far as I could, but this made it even more obvious that I was hiding something.

"Oh s-s-sorry, I-I-I thought..." I stuttered pointing to the TV.

"Oh no, that's alright."  He smiled apologetically.  He looked quite handsome, tall with dark hair, about the same age as me.  Still, being bottomless the way I was, I wasn't really dressed for meeting new people.

"If you're watching, I'll just..." I made for the door trying hard not to look like a girl with nothing on under her pj top.

"No, no, that's OK.  I was just going to shut it off."  He stood up, and I shivered afraid of what he might do.  He moved calmly towards the TV, so I quickly scurried out the door and back to Satomi's room.

Now I really couldn't sleep.  I couldn't believe I'd flashed some guy in Satomi's dorm.  I couldn't stop thinking about it.  I wonder what he thought.  I hadn't ever seen him before, but I wonder what would happen if I bumped into him on campus.  'Hey, aren't you that girl who flashed her pussy at me that night?'  That would be so embarrassing.  I wonder if I should go back and explain.  But what could I say anyway?  'I was hot, and I didn't think anyone would be around.'  He would probably still think I was a nympho.  How on earth do I get myself into these situations anyway?  I'd better try to get some sleep.

I dreamed I was at the nude beach.  Someone had told my parents, and they had come (all the way from Japan?) to get me and take me home.  My mom seemed really angry.  They were dragging me away, and I was screaming and yelling to let me go.  Do you ever have dreams like that?

The next morning, I woke up on the futon on Satomi's floor.  She was already up and getting ready.  She was looking over at me, a bit annoyed that I wasn't wearing any bottoms.  I quickly pulled them on, and started getting ready too.  It was still really early, but we wanted to go early while it wasn't too crowded, so we wouldn't run into anyone we knew.  That would be really embarrassing to meet some of our classmates while we're in the nude.  How on earth would we be able to face them?  I decided to just stop thinking about it.

The weather outside was really nice, sunny and warm, the perfect day for the beach.  The cafeteria wasn't open yet, so we walked up to the convenience store to buy some breakfast, and then headed towards the beach.  It isn't too far from Satomi's dorm, maybe a half hour walk.  We didn't see very many people on campus yet, so that calmed us down a bit.  I showed her where the path runs into the woods, and we walked down the hill.

When we came out at the bottom of the stairs, at first we couldn't see anyone at all.  There was no one sitting to our right, but then on the left, we saw a couple of guys standing not too far from where the stairs came out, and there were a few other groups sitting further down the beach.  Wow!  These naturists start early!

The guy standing right by us was completely naked, and had long hair and a beard.  He was in good shape, but his hair was speckled grey, and he looked fairly old.  He looked like a hippy from the sixties.

He and his friends looked over at us perhaps a bit surprised to see two young Japanese girls.  It looked like he was going to say something to us, but we just walked quickly past them and off to the left.  I wanted to check first if there was anyone there we knew.  Everyone seemed a bit older than us.  There were a couple of women sitting huddled in the groups, but mostly it was just guys.  All of the guys were nude, but only one of the women was topless.  The other women still had on their swimsuits.  Satomi noticed this too, and I could tell she was no longer keen on getting naked.

In one of the groups, I thought I heard someone call us "textiles."  I wasn't sure, but just from the situation, I guessed that's what nudists call people who wear clothes.  I didn't like being called a textile.  I had come there to be a nudist just like them.  Still it wasn't that easy to just strip in front of all these strangers.

We walked all the way down to the cliff at the other end of the beach.  We didn't want to sit too close to the entrance or to the other people, so we ended up walking out onto the sandbar.  We walked pretty far out, but I could tell that all the people back toward the cliffs were watching us to see what we would do.

I chose a spot, got out my towel, and spread it out on the sand.  Satomi was still looking back at all the other people.

"C'mon, it'll be OK," I told Satomi.  She got out her towel too, and laid it down beside mine.  We both sat down.

"I don't know about this, Emi.  None of the other girls are naked."

"But there's no one here we know.  C'mon, Sacchan, don't be such a scaredy cat."  (Sacchan is Satomi's nickname).

Although I was trying to sound calm, I was pretty nervous myself.  The hippy guy who had almost started talking to us looked like he was drinking beer.  Satomi looked back at the other people too, obviously worried.  We just sat there for a while, until the other people on the beach stopped looking this way.

Still, I felt pretty silly sitting on a nude beach fully clothed.  What had we come here for anyway?  I waited a bit longer, and when I was absolutely sure that no one was watching, I moved a bit closer to Satomi using her to block the view of the people on the beach as I lifted my t-shirt up.  When Satomi noticed me undressing, she opened her eyes wide in shock.

"Relax, I have my swimsuit on underneath."

As soon as she saw my bikini top, she breathed a sigh of relief.  It was the red and white bikini I bought when I was in Japan.  It slid up my breasts a bit when I pulled up my t-shirt, so I straightened it out.

"Oops," I said peering over Satomi's shoulder at the people back near the cliffs.

"Oh, I thought..." she paused.  "Sorry," she said blushing shyly.

I don't know why, but we both broke out laughing.  The people back on the beach looked over this way, but that just made us laugh even more.  When we finally caught our breath, and calmed back down, Satomi's expression changed.

"Maybe I'm just being silly," she said.  I took this as a good sign, and started undoing the front of my jeans.  She breathed in sharply, but then I gave her a peek at my bikini bottom, and she smiled.  I kicked off my shoes, and pulled my jeans down and off.  Satomi started to take off her blouse, but I motioned for her to stop.

"Here, can you rub some suntan lotion on my back?"  I took off my socks, and lay face down on my towel looking back at the people to see their reaction.  I guess they couldn't see me very well, because no one seemed to be looking this way.  Of course, Satomi was still fully dressed, so maybe they thought I was too.  I reached around behind my neck, and undid the string, and then did the same to the one on my back.  Satomi was waving her hands in the air to get me to stop, but I said,

"Relax, I don't think they can tell with you sitting in the way."

Satomi looked back nervously, but finally turned back to me.

"I guess you're right, but... but... don't you feel nervous like that?"

"Oh c'mon Satomi, it's a nudist beach, for heaven's sake."

She put her hands to her lips, and looked down at me nervously.

"I don't know, Emi, I..."

"OK well, just relax.  Everything's going to be OK."

Satomi is always like this, I swear.  She worries about every little thing.  I guess in this case, it kind of makes sense, but I don't know.  I felt safe for some reason.  The hippy guy was a bit scary, but the other people looked normal enough.  With so many people there, it was hard to imagine anything bad happening.  Still, maybe I should have brought Ryosuke just in case.  If he'd come though, he would have got all worked up, and there's no way Satomi would have agreed.  It would have turned into something totally different.  Well anyway, he was working, so he couldn't come anyway.

I lay there for a while, topless facing down.  Satomi very nervously stripped down to her swimsuit, and rubbed some sun block on.  She lay face down beside me, and gradually settled down.  The other people didn't come over to bother us or anything.  I started fiddling with the side ties on my bikini bottom.

"Are you going to actually..." Satomi asked looking over at me nervously.

"You can do whatever you want, but as long as we're here, I'm going to give it a try.  That's what this place is for anyway."  I very carefully undid the ties, and pulled the suit off from under me.  I was so proud of myself for actually getting up the nerve to do this.  I wasn't sure if I'd have been able to do it if there were people close by.  Satomi kept looking back and forth between me and the people back towards the trees.

"Cut that out.  It'll just make them want to come over."

Satomi turned over on her back, and looked up at the sky.

"You are so brave.  I don't..."

Obviously, she wanted to take her swimsuit off too, but she was having trouble getting up the nerve.  It does take a lot of courage.  You feel like you're putting yourself up on display, and everyone will be able to see all your little birth marks, and body hair or whatever.  If you've ever been to a nudist beach, maybe you know what I mean.  But once you do it you feel so free and alive.  It's really hard to describe.  If you haven't tried it, I recommend you do.  It's so fun.

Anyway, we lay there for a long time, me enjoying my nudity, and Satomi fretting about what she should do.  I loved the feeling of the breeze and sun on my body.  I was in heaven really.  I kept lying face down, but I was getting so excited that I spread my legs way apart till I could feel the wind licking at my privates.  Satomi gave me a disapproving look, but she eventually lay face down, and undid her top the way I had done.  She watched the others for a while, but they were pretty quiet, so she eventually moved her bag, so it would block their view, and peeled off her bottoms as well.

"How does it feel to finally be naked outside?"

"Terrifying.  I don't know how you talk me into these things."

"You have to admit it is pretty exciting."

"I'm just praying my psych prof doesn't come along."

"Relax, and enjoy yourself.  Do you want me to rub some sun block on your behind?"

"No thanks, I can do it."  Staying glued to her towel, she grabbed the sun block and started rubbing it into her firm little buttocks.

"You have a great body.  If you wanted to, I'm sure you could get Futoshi to ask you out."

"Who says I want to?"

"I do.  I know you're trying to hide it, but the way you always blush when he's around looks mighty suspicious to me."

Suddenly, there was this shadow falling over our bodies.  We both looked over, and it was the old hippy standing right in the sun looking straight down at our outstretched rears.  Satomi grabbed her jacket, and spread it out across her bare behind to cover up.  I tensed, but I didn't cover up.  I waited to see what he would do.

"I reckon you young missies is new to this here beach."  His speech was a bit slurred, and he still had his cowboy hat on, but not much else.  As he looked down at us, his penis seemed to twitch a bit.  Satomi was too petrified to move, but I just shielded my eyes from the sun, and nodded vaguely.

"The name's Tex.  I been coming here well on thirty years now.  If'n there's anything you gals would like to know..."  His eyes kept glancing down at my rear and Satomi's quivering form.  We just lay there in silence for what seemed like forever, and then we heard a voice from behind him.

"Yo, Tex.  Maybe the ladies don't want to be bothered."  A younger roly-poly guy with a broad good-natured grin came up, and stood beside Tex.  As he realized we were naked though, his expression changed, and he moved to cover his penis.  Satomi turned her back to them, and looked at me frantically.

"Sorry, Tex tends to get carried away sometimes," he smiled apologetically.  "Come on now Tex, let's leave them to sunbathe in peace."  Roly-poly grabbed Tex by the arm, and pulled him away, but Tex didn't seem to want to leave.

"Least, tell me your names."

With an effort, Roly-poly dragged him away.  All the hairs on the back of my neck that were standing up slowly settled down again.

"Phew!  That was close."

Satomi still looked pretty rattled.

"Calm down.  It's OK.  They're gone."

She looked back, and they'd gone all the way back to their group.  The group was kind of laughing and teasing Tex.  Some of the other people on the beach looked from Tex's group to us a few times, but soon enough they settled back down.

"I don't know, Emi.  I think we'd better get dressed, and head back."

I didn't really want to leave, but I could tell she was pretty upset.

"Let's just go in for a swim first to cool down."

"Can I put my swimsuit back on?"

"Oh, come on.  Once we're in the water, they won't be able to see us anyway."

She took a hold of her swimsuit, clearly wanting to get dressed.  I rolled over and sat up, exposing my breasts for the first time.  I took the swimsuit from her, and motioned for her to sit up too.  She kept her back to the others, but finally sat up.

"I don't know how you can be so calm.  Both those guys were standing right above us."

"It's a nude beach, Satomi.  We're supposed to be naked.  Besides, nothing happened.  He was just a little drunk.  That's all."  I stood, and brushed myself off.  I looked over, and realized that practically the whole beach was staring at me.  I straightened up, and pulled my shoulders back to better show off my breasts.  I couldn't take the staring though, and my face flushed warm with embarrassment.  "Here I'm going to go in."

I scooted over to the shore, and waded in.  The water was quite shallow, so I was acutely aware that my body was still exposed.  Satomi ran past me, and then we both ran out, and dove in.  It felt so good to be swimming around without a swimsuit on.  Satomi looked happy too now that all those people couldn't see her anymore.

"See I told you.  Isn't this great?  Fashion hurts.  Being nude heals."

"Oh, Emi, you're so silly sometimes, but I guess you're right.  It's not that bad."

We swam around for a while, splashing and chasing each other and having a great time.  I was so glad that Satomi had finally snapped out of her blue funk.  She's just as funny as Ryosuke when she is in a good mood.

Anyway, after a while, we got tired, and came back out.  Everyone was watching us again as we walked back up to our towels, but we just let them look.  It felt great to be admired, to be able to walk free like that unashamed of my body.  I was beginning to understand better how nudists feel.

I flopped down on my towel, and lay there spread-eagled out facing the sky.  Satomi giggled nervously, but eventually lay down face up as well.  We put on some more sun block, and basked in the sun for a while.  Eventually, we started to get hungry, so we decided to head back up to campus, and get something to eat.  I put on a t-shirt and sandals, but didn't get dressed just yet.  Satomi put on her swimsuit, but put her clothes in her bag.  We walked past the other people sitting on the beach, and they all smiled.  As I walked up the stairs ahead of Satomi, she suddenly exclaimed,

"Hey, where are your bottoms?"

I lifted up the hem of my t-shirt to give her a peek at my bare behind.

"I'm not wearing any."

"Emi!  You can't walk around campus like that."

"Why not?  If I pull the hem down, no one will be able to tell."

"Stop talking crazy.  Of course you can tell."

"OK, OK, I'll get dressed.  I just thought it would be fun to try."

We reached the top of the stairs, and I went along the path a little ways, and then ducked into the trees.  Satomi stopped on the path right next to me, and then almost freaked out as I pulled my t-shirt off again.

"Emi!  Cut that out!  Someone will see you."

"A lot of people have already seen me."

"Nooo, I mean our professors and stuff.  We're almost at the road."

"Just hold your horses.  I'm putting on my swimsuit."

While I got changed, Satomi pulled out a t-shirt too, and pulled it on over her bikini.  She was staring down the path towards the road, but she finally decided not to put her jeans back on.

"You're in a frisky mood."

"Let's go back to my dorm.  I want to have a shower before I get dressed."

We walked clear across campus in our t-shirts, and managed to get a few whistles from passing guys.  While we were showering, on the other side of the shower curtains, I heard a couple of guys come into the bathroom.  That was kind of weird, but they went away before we got out, and for once Satomi didn't even seem to mind.

Anyway, that's basically what happened.  If you've ever been to a nude beach, write and tell me.  I'd be interested to hear about it.
