BARE HAVEN RETREAT

Other RulesADVICE FOR NEW TO NATURIST LIFESTYLE
Can I wear undergarments?
No, please do not wear your bra, panties or boxers around the retreat. We suggest you wear a wrap or sarong until you feel comfortable, or if the weather is a little chilly.
What should I bring?
Sunscreen, hat, sunglasses, thongs/sandals. Towels are provided for guests. (It is proper etiquette to ALWAYS use a towel to sit or lounge on.) In winter months, a robe may be comfortable .
What if someone is staring at me or does something inappropriate?
Will I feel self-conscious?
You will quickly discover that people really do come in all shapes and sizes and that all of us, as far as our bodies are concerned, have nothing to hide. Nudists respect each others individuality regardless of size, shape or body condition. In fact, our own self esteem is enhanced by our ability to accept ourselves as we really are.
What is your average age of guests?
We have guests of all ages but our average age is 35-65.

Do I have to be nude
People normally expect to be clothes free unless the situation or weather conditions determine otherwise.
Can I wear a wrap?
You can wear a wrap anytime you get up to walk around if that makes you feel more comfortable but you may soon feel that it is more comfortable not wearing anything because that is the norm.
What do I do if it my time of the month?
Most of the women don’t stress about it. Some poeple cut the string short so it does not show.
What if I get physically excited?
Most men are worried about this. Getting excited is very rare because the resort provides a place for relaxation. On the rare occasion that this does occur, just simply cover up with a towel, turn over or take a quick dip in the pool.
