Capedon... I private messaged you about next week. I'll meet up with ya

Spent last Sunday and Monday at Fort De Soto with some great weather and beach conditions. Water was clear and calm and definitely no signs of any Red Tide thankfully. For those who may not have been to Fort Desoto in a while, the park has converted to parking fees to be paid by meter or by phone app. The booths where the park attendants previously collected the $5.00 is still there, but no one is there to collect the park entry fee. When putting in the information (with the glaring sun over you) you will need to put in your correct license plate. There was one day I accidentally put in one incorrect number because I couldn't see the screen that well and the park issued me a $30.00 ticket thinking I didn't pay the park fee when I really did pay. Anyway... I called the number the next day on the ticket and they could see that I paid the fee (they adjusted the ticket) Be sure to requested a text back when paying the fee at the meter which also offered the Park proof of the time I paid. The Thong Beach crowd on both days was relatively quiet, but was fantastic to just get away and enjoy.

New to the area. Is there a part of fort de soto that is best for thonging

Anywhere on Ft Desoto is fine for wearing a thong. Search the other threads on hehe board about Ft Desoto and there is plenty of detailed info on the area where most people tend to go.

Just throwing this out there , anyone interested in meeting up on Thursday 8/17 for a fun in the sun Thong day. We could meet up at the snack bar and head to the beach once we are all together. I'm just gauging interest , more details to follow depending on those interested.

7/14/2025 Meet Up . Anyone interested in getting together for a thong beach day on Monday 7/14 ? I think it would be fun for all that can attend . PM me if interested

Went to Ft Desoto yesterday with the wife and 2 of her cousins and younger kids that are in the area visiting. We're planning on Pass-a-grille but the traffic getting there steered us to the Fort. We parked near the concession stand and went straight out to the beach from there. The amount of young ladies to those upwards of 40-50 wearing thongs was the most I've ever seen there! It was as if we were on South Beach or the clothing side of Haulover on a weekend. Using Sailor250 metric, twice I looked around and counted the number of thongs in view and it was in excess of 30 each time. The wife and I took a walk from there up to the north end, the area sometimes referred to as the thong ghetto. As soon as we were about 100 feet away I dropped my swimshorts and wore just my Vaquita thong. No stupid comments from anyone, no crazy looks, many smiles and a few approving nods from some women. The beach was the most crowded I have ever seen it. On our walk I saw 12 other guys in thongs up and walking the beach. The ghetto area seemed to be in good behavior with none of the shenanigans, that are sometimes witnessed, going on. We haven't been there in a while as we usually just take the boat out to Passage Key where we don't have to wear anything. I really enjoyed our visit, really loved the sight of so many bare butts on the ladies, and being able to walk around in a thong on a packed beach like it was a completely normal thing!!
