Anyone planning to be out this weekend? I'm thinking about Saturday May 4th although the weather doesn't look perfect it may be nice enough to make the trip. 

Yep, they fit that description. 

How is the thong/nude activity out there either on Thursdays or fridays? May be making a trip up there for a day. Maybe stay overnight at a no-tell motel.

 I am I am also assuming that the foot traffic is quite light during the week

Just noticed, I was in the wrong area on here.  I see the current posts.

Haven't be to BI in awhile.  Hope to go soon.

Nudist here.  Not sure about a thong for myself.

However........you CAN get away with nude sunbathing way out on Bird Island, down past the kindred spirits mailbox. Scan thru this topic and you will find good info.

While at Bird Island did the patrol SUV ever do any drive byes? What part of FL are you heading to?

Sunday afternoon on Bird Island was great. Aside from a cluster of  people near the big bush between the mailbox and the jetty it was pretty empty in the afternoon. Only one true thong sighting on a female who was set up with her guy past the cluster. There was one other girl in a very cheeky who walked past me from the boat show on the inlet to get to the mailbox who must have thought she was hot stuff, until she saw the gal in the true thong. 

I moved down back to my normal spot which I had passed up in the morning because of all the mailbox traffic. There was a single older lady going topless near there so I asked if she would mind if I moved and would she mind if I went nude. Turns out I had met her years ago. So I set up about 10 yards away and spent several hours nude, as did she. Though she was more blatant about it, which made me more comfortable.

Today was not good, my wife and I went to the same spot in the morning and spent only a few hours out there, instead of the whole day. The flies were terrible!

After my wife left and I packed up, I talked with one of the beach patrol who was having his lunch in his vehicle in front of the Mailbox. Among other things we talked about was that they got a memo to restrict “cheeky suits “ on Sunset Beach. In his words What the hell is A cheeky suit?”  He wasn’t going to worry about it unless someone complained. (I did not bring up the thought that a guy could wear one).

We also chatted about Bird Island being State governed and outside of the town’s ETJ for code enforcement. They are only coming out for health and safety checks and carry water for people too dumb not to.  As a matter of fact on my way out this morning they had somebody who had to be rescued from in front of the mailbox because of the heat.

Strange day at BI today.  Windy and tide was very low.  Foot traffic was intermittent and fairly light.  I was the only thonger out there for a while until one guy walked out and set up quite close to me.  He did not thong or go nude, but stayed in board shorts.  Wind eventually sent me home early.  Hopefully I can get out Tuesday or Wednesday next week.

Looks like 1398/1401 W Main Street will put you at the 40th street crossover.

I never can park that close but there is a crossover every block. As pointed out before remember to park entirely off of the pavement as they will ticket!

Enjoy,

I’ve been to Bird Island three times on a crowded holiday week. I always walk from the pier ( a 3 mile ? walk) and when it’s that crowded, I wear  a square cut suit or short shorts as a cover up. 

I’ve found the holiday crowds to be pretty disdainful (but not hostile) of minimal swimwear on men. Well, the last time it was Memorial Day week last year. More crowded than I had ever seen. 

I had a what-the-hell moment, and wore a skinny side strap rio bikini with a full size pouch. I got some positive and negative looks but most people were too busy to notice or care. I had a nice time when I got to bird Island. There were a few potential gawkers set up near the mailbox which doesn’t bother me at all. On the way back, I took the first beach access back to the road and walked on the streets back to the pier. I definitely got some surprised looks and greetings but don’t remember any negative.
