Textile beaches North of Oceanview, the town where I am staying in California, there is an area called El Fuego that I guess is kind of famous for its beaches. My boyfriend Ryosuke and I like to travel around taking little day trips here and there, so we started asking around to find out what there was to see there. There was almost nothing in the guidebooks, but a couple of people mentioned that it was popular with the surfing crowd, so we decided to go check it out. One spring day, we took the train up there, and got out at this one town that we'd heard was supposed to be good. They had palm trees, and some convenience stores and stuff, but actually, it was still early in the season, so a lot of the stores were closed. We picked up something to eat, and headed for the beach, but it was really windy and almost deserted. We sat there eating our lunch, then walked up the beach, but still didn't find anyone swimming. At the far north edge of town, the beach gave way to steep cliffs running along the coast. The highway cut through the cliffs, so we followed it getting further and further from the town. Cars would go by on the highway every once in a while, but other than that, it was pretty quiet. Not too far up, we found an opening in the cliffs that led onto a small sandy beach. It was really nice soft sand, and had a beautiful view of the ocean. I wanted to go in swimming, so we walked along the cliff-face away from the entrance, till we couldn't see the cars any more. We set down our stuff on the sand. I peered back at the entrance. "Do you suppose anyone will come?" "Probably not. We're pretty far from town, and there's no place to park." I kicked off my shoes, and undid the button on my jeans. "Hey, Emi. I've got an idea." Ryosuke said all excited all of a sudden. "What?" "Could you just strip down, and let me take a few pictures?" I knew of course that this kind of thing was on his mind. The whole point of coming out this far was to get away from the parts of the beach where people usually go. Even so, I felt a bit nervous about the idea. It was broad daylight out, and we saw quite a few cars driving on that highway coming out this way. "Are you sure it'll be safe?" I asked nodding over towards the entrance. He looked over that way obviously a bit nervous himself. "Yeah, they won't be able to see you way over here anyway." I still didn't feel terribly safe. I stood there waiting, for the longest time, eyeing the opening in the cliffs trying to tell if anyone was coming. Finally, I decided to take the chance. I peeled off my shorts and panties, and quickly stripped out of my top and bra. I gave out a laugh, sticking out my tongue at Ryosuke, proud of my own daring. I continued to watch the entrance while he took pictures of me naked. I wandered over to the water's edge, and went in swimming for a bit, while Ryosuke sat on the sand watching my clothes. I could still see cars going by now and then, but luckily, no one stopped. I came back up, and we cuddled for a while, but I was too nervous to do anything more. I ended up getting back dressed, and we headed home. Not long after that, we began looking for other places like that where we could be alone. On the other side of town, not far from Ryosuke's place, there is this long flat rocky peninsula that they've turned into this kind of park with a biking trail down the middle. One afternoon that spring, I biked down to Ryosuke's place, and the two of us set out from there. There was a lot of traffic on the shore, but I swear once we were half way out the peninsula, all you could see was the ocean stretching out on both sides – no people at all. I was getting tired of biking, so we stopped, and climbed down onto the big rocks on the shore. There was no beach at all, but we found a little place to sit shielded from the path by this big boulder. We could still see the shore of the mainland in the distance, but we were too far way now for people to see us. I cautiously stripped out of my clothes again, and squatted down at the water's edge playing in the water with my hand. Ryosuke took a few more pictures, but then he suggested we head back up, and bike some more. I went to get my clothes, but he took them with him climbing back up to the biking trail. "Ryosuke! That isn't funny. Bring them back." He just ignored me, stuffing my clothes into his pack, looking both ways down the trail trying to tell if anyone was coming. He'd left my socks and runners on the rocks, so I quickly pulled them on. I felt absolutely silly standing there in just my shoes, so I slowly cautiously climbed back up the rocks to the trail gazing around looking for signs of people. I finally made it back up to the trail, shielding my eyes from the bright sun with one arm and covering my pussy with the other. "Ryosuke!" The sea breeze was licking at my naked skin, but I felt more nervous than cold. "There's no one around, I swear. Take a look." He held out his binoculars for me. I gave him a dirty look, but finally took them from him. While I was scanning the horizon, he patted me on the bottom. "You have such a great body really." I pushed his hand away until he behaved himself, and then went back to looking for people. I found a couple, way back on the beach shoreline on the mainland, but it did look like there wasn't much of anyone on the peninsula. I still felt terribly vulnerable and exposed standing out here in the bright sun stark naked. "Come on. Let's go," he said getting on his bike. I gave him back his binoculars, but just stared at him unable to believe he wanted me to go riding naked. "Oh, c'mon Emi. It's not that bad. If anyone comes, I'll give you your clothes back." I peered back at the people in the distance on the shore, but reluctantly got back on my bike. The soft warm leather felt so strange between my legs. Ryosuke noticed me fooling with it, and pulled his bike up alongside mine. Before I could stop him, he'd slid his hand down between my legs. "Jeez, Emi, you're soaking wet." "I am not," I denied it, but he held up his fingers to show me. I guess I was getting a little bit excited standing out here naked. Ryosuke motioned for me to go ahead. Soon, I realized he wanted to ogle my bare bottom as I pedaled along. I gave him a sheepish look, but finally pedaled on ahead. Still, more than Ryosuke, I was worried about bumping into someone else out here. I kept scanning around for people hiding in the rocks, but the feeling of the saddle between my legs was making it hard to concentrate. We bicycled all the way out to the end of the peninsula. As much as I hated to admit it, I was really starting to enjoy biking around out here naked. We got off, and rested a bit sitting down on the rocks. I asked Ryosuke for my clothes back, but I guess he could tell I was starting to feel more at ease wandering around naked. He made me go on ahead again, but this time I was even more nervous worried that we might run into someone coming the other way. Before we'd biked too far, I suddenly noticed a fisherman on the left standing down on the shore just a bit off the trail. My heart jumped because neither of us had noticed him on the way out. He turned as we went by, but I sped up to get away from him. I'm pretty sure he saw me, but luckily he didn't chase after us. More worried now than ever, I looked back at Ryosuke, but he just shrugged for me not to worry. I couldn't understand how he could be so blasé about it. My heart was beating away like a trip hammer. It got even worse as we bicycled nearer to the mainland. I kept begging Ryosuke to give me back my clothes, but clearly he was enjoying teasing me, tempting fate as we cycled closer and closer to shore. The rocks changed to grassy hills, and it was almost impossible to tell who might be around the next bend. We finally came to a restroom, so I slammed on the brakes gazing around terrified. There was a group of people just ahead having a barbeque, so I quickly got off my bike, and dashed into the girl's washroom. Ryosuke cycled around closer to them, but it looked like either they hadn't seen me, or at least hadn't realized I was naked. Ryosuke eventually came back, and gave me my clothes. I quickly got back dressed. Just in case they had seen me, I biked past them as quickly as I could. After that close call, I was a good girl for the rest of the day. By the time supper time had rolled around, I'd calmed down enough to look back, and laugh. It was kind of funny. That was definitely the first time I'd ever gone biking naked. Later that spring, I heard from my friend Erika in Hawaii that she'd gone snorkeling lately, and had a lot of fun. I told Ryosuke about it, and we went shopping, and bought snorkels, fins, masks and an underwater camera. The guy in the shop was really talkative, and explained a lot about how to use the equipment, and what to watch out for. Ryosuke did some research, and found some beaches south of Oceanview where the water was supposed to be crystal clear. His next day off we headed down there to try. The beach was pretty far from the train station, but it was getting closer to the high season, so we saw more people than we had up at El Fuego. Even so, the beach was on a little cove with a line of trees blocking the view from the road, and luckily there weren't that many people on the beach. There were no change rooms, but Ryosuke and I had our swimsuits on under our clothes, so we just stripped off, hid our clothes, and then got all suited up. You end up walking like a penguin when you wear fins, and the water felt really cold at first. I also found it hard to breathe in the snorkel, but as I swam around, I slowly got more used to it. The ocean bottom was all pebbly, but the water was clear, and we did see the odd tropical fish now and then. Ryosuke kept taking breaks to go up for air, but once I'd gotten used to how the snorkel worked, I was able to stay in for longer. We ended up swimming down to the far end away from the entrance to the beach to where it was more deserted. Ryosuke motioned for me to come up for air. He lifted up his mask, and said, "Do you think you could..." He just left the question hanging, but I knew what was on his mind. I scanned the beach looking for people, but it looked like the coast was clear. Hiding deep in the water, I undid the straps on my bikini, and handed it to Ryosuke. It felt so good to be naked. I love skinny-dipping, the feel of the water on my body. Even if it was a bit cold, my whole body felt electrified, charged up to be naked out here. I went back underwater, and swam around while Ryosuke took pictures of me with his camera. It was hard to read his expression because of the snorkel, but I'm sure he must have been as excited as I was. I tried all kinds of different poses, stretching out and turning over, so he could take shots of my rear, breasts and pussy from all different angles. I felt like a supermodel somewhere on a deserted island paradise doing a big photo shoot. Before we'd been out there long, I suddenly noticed we had company. I guess we sort of knew this beach was famous for divers, but we'd both gotten so wrapped up in shooting the photos that we hadn't even noticed this scuba diver coming nearer. I looked to Ryosuke for my bikini, but he didn't have it. It was off floating in the water, and even worse, the scuba guy got to it before we could! At first, I was really afraid because here I was out here naked in just my fins and a mask, and this guy had stolen my only cover. I hid behind Ryosuke, who kept waving for the guy to give the bikini back. The guy refused though, and made this hand gesture for us to continue with the photo shoot! I was horrified, but after thinking about it for a while, I realized he probably just wanted to watch. It was obvious that Ryosuke was my boyfriend, and really what could the guy do anyway, all suited up in his scuba gear? I finally nodded to Ryosuke that it was OK, and swam back out from behind him. The guy seemed stunned by my body. I guess it's not every day you run into a naked girl while scuba diving. I swam around as I had before, slowly warming to the situation. It was kind of fun flashing this guy, and he even started clapping to show his appreciation. I was starting to feel cold though and a bit tired, so I swam over to him to ask again for my bikini back. He'd apparently gone soft on me by then, and gave it back without a fight. It had been fun while it lasted, but it was time to get back dressed. We didn't hang around long to talk to the guy or anything, but I guess he must have had quite a story to tell to his friends. Ryosuke was really happy with how the pictures turned out. He was talking about posting them to the web, but I finally managed to talk him out of it. Maybe someday. Exams were coming up, so I had to settle down a bit, and concentrate on school. It wasn't till almost a month later, that Ryosuke and I got a chance to go the beach again. He'd been busy too with work and stuff, but then on one of his days off, he came over. We didn't have any plans really, so I suggested we just walk down to the beach to see what was going on. I'd gone swimming at the beach a few times with my friend Satomi and them, but with Ryosuke, I thought we could just walk along the boardwalk, and enjoy the sea air. It was starting to get really hot out, and usually there's a bit more of a breeze down by the lakeshore. We walked down, and finally came to the beach nearest my house. We bought some popsicles in the convenience store, and then slowly walked along the beach looking for a place to sit down. Before long, we came to a stretch shaded by some trees at the back of the beach. I got Ryosuke to hold my popsicle, and got out a ground sheet, and we spread it out on the sand. We sat down, and finished off our popsicles. Ryosuke picked out a blade of tall grass, and lay back chewing on it. I sat there for a while looking out at the ocean. Now that we were here, I kind of wanted to go in swimming, but I'd left my swimsuit at home. This part of the beach never gets very crowded, but we were inside the city limits now. Just to the right, there was this man sitting at a picnic table watching his kids playing in the surf. Further down the beach on the left, there was another guy, barefoot squatting down throwing pebbles out into the ocean. Neither of them seemed too interested in us. Way off in the distance, I could see a few other people, but they were so far away I couldn't really see them too well. "I'm hot," I complained. "That's summer for you," Ryosuke replied calmly. He was in one of his lazy moods. I guess he was tired from work, but I didn't really want to just lie here all day. "I want to go in swimming," I announced. He pulled down his sunglasses, and looked over at me more seriously now. "Did you bring your swimsuit?" "No, it's back at the house." "What? You want to walk all the way back home?" "No, no, I just..." I looked away too embarrassed to admit what I'd been thinking. I kind of wanted to go in skinny-dipping again, but this time, there were these people around. This wasn't a nude beach or anything. There are a couple of unofficial nude beaches in town, but this wasn't one of them. I couldn't help wondering what these guys would think though if I stripped off, and went in swimming. It wouldn't seem too weird, would it? I vaguely remember reading somewhere that it was OK to go nude on the beaches in San Diego county. (You'd better check it though. I might be wrong). Ryosuke glared right at me for a while with this funny look on his face. "What?" I asked feigning innocence. "You're going to go in skinny-dipping here?" "I... I... I don't know." We both looked over at the father sitting at the picnic table, trying to guess how he would react. He looked pretty mild-mannered, wearing glasses and long trousers. Ryosuke looked back at me. "All right, you're on." "What?" "I dare you to strip in front of this guy." "I never said..." "Oh, c'mon Emi. I know you want to do it. That would be, like so amazing." I gazed down at my jeans and t-shirt. Of course, the scuba diver had seen me naked, but actually, I usually don't strip in front of people, especially not people I've never met before. It doesn't feel right somehow. Still it did sound exciting. He didn't look like the type who'd call the police or do anything like that. Maybe it will be alright if I just go in for a quick dip. I gave Ryosuke a brave smile, and stood up. I was still a bit worried about the barefoot guy and the other people down the beach. He had his back to us, but he wasn't all that far away. I guess he looked harmless enough though. Anyway, I backed up toward the trees trying to hide behind them. Unfortunately , they didn't really offer much cover. The nearest one had a thin bent trunk like a big bonsai, and its leaves were all further up in the air. I began to wonder if this was such a good idea. I couldn't just strip here on the beach out in the open like this, could I? I kicked off my sandals, and undid the belt and button on my jeans, but then just waited there for a long time seeing if either of the two guys noticed. The father was still watching his kids, and the other guy had waded out into the sea a bit. I looked down at Ryosuke. He had this big grin on his face, egging me on. I finally got up my nerve, and started pulling down my jeans. I had all these butterflies in my tummy, and I was really starting to regret having suggested the whole thing. What kind of person strips naked on a public beach in broad daylight no less? I hope I don't end up regretting this later. I got my jeans off, but it looked like no one had noticed. I felt a little offended even. Here I am stripping, and these guys aren't even paying attention. I slid my hands into my panties, and pulled them down. I was getting so excited stripping out of my panties on the beach, feeling the gentle sea breeze on my pussy. I stepped out of my panties, and held them up peering down at my naked pussy. My t-shirt hung loosely around my slender waist, falling just around my bellybutton and not covering much of anything. I was still nervous, but I was absolutely thrilled I'd got up the nerve to go through with this. Here I was standing here half-naked on the beach. Shaking slightly from the excitement, I squatted down, folded my jeans and panties, and put them away in my backpack. I was so worked up. The sensation of being naked with these people right nearby was just too delicious to even begin to describe it. I was in heaven. I reached over, and picked up my popsicle stick and wrapper, and gestured for Ryosuke to hand me his. He guffawed, staring in wonder at my bare behind, amazed that I seemed so relaxed about the whole thing. I tried not to let on, but I was actually getting incredibly turned on. It was such a rush to be naked like this with people so close by, even if they hadn't noticed me yet. He gave me the empty popsicle package, and continued staring as I stood up. "Where are you going?" he asked. "I'm just going to throw this out." I looked this way and that, and finally spotted a trash can on the other side of the picnic bench where the father was sitting. I looked down at Ryosuke for reassurance, and then started walking along the tree line toward the father. He noticed me coming, and turned this way looking first at my face and then down at my naked pussy. I bowed my head down trying to hide my face in my long black hair, but I kept on walking right towards him. I started to breathe deeply unable to hold back my excitement. What on earth am I doing? I hope he doesn't think I'm some kind of nymphomaniac or something. I'm not, you know. Really. Most of the time I would never even consider doing anything like this, but for some reason, that day... I walked past him without saying anything, and I could feel his eyes on my bare bottom as I walked away. The trees came to an end, and my heart sped up as the boardwalk and the road came into view. There were cars driving by and a long row of seaside inns and houses stretching up around the bay. I was shocked to find we were so close to civilization. I felt terribly embarrassed and exposed standing there in just my short t-shirt, so I quickly hightailed it back toward Ryosuke. The father was still staring straight at me obviously stunned to see me naked. I quickly walked past him, but then the barefoot guy turned this way, and saw me. He was holding something in his hand, and as I drew closer I suddenly realized it was a camera. I kicked off my sandals, and squatted down on the groundsheet, trying to tell if he'd realized I was naked. "He's got a camera!" I pointed out to Ryosuke. The guy was looking over this way with this curious expression on his face. It looked like he had got a look at my pussy before I squatted down, but couldn't believe his eyes. "Woops!" I exclaimed, shivering a bit at my predicament. He was watching me very carefully now, but at least he wasn't coming any closer. I look down at Ryosuke, motioning in the guy's direction, and eventually Ryosuke got up, and went over to talk with him. The father was still staring at me too, at my bare bottom. I couldn't hear what Ryosuke was saying, but eventually, the guy put away his camera. Ryosuke came strolling back, obviously quite happy with the whole situation. "What did you tell him?" I asked. "That you are nympho exhibitionist who gets off on flashing her body at poor innocent bystanders." I glared at him, but he obviously wasn't serious. "Relax. I just told him to put away his camera." I guess this was the main thing I wanted, but whatever it was that Ryosuke had said, the guy was still watching me pretty closely. I looked at Ryosuke pouting out my lips. "I don't know, Ryosuke. This is all kind of crazy, don't you think? Aren't you worried?" He glanced at the two guys watching, but then shrugged. "It'll be fine. The only reason they're staring is 'cause your acting like it's such a big deal. Just relax, and pretend you do it all the time." The way he said this made it sound so reasonable. I ever so slowly gathered up my nerve, and pulled up my t-shirt. I guess I still knew the whole idea was crazy, but some part of me wanted to test it, see what would happen. I pulled off my t-shirt, and undid my bra squatting there naked for a moment. I flashed Ryosuke this big smile, but inside I still felt kind of afraid. Not wanting to let it show, I stood up, and walked confidently toward the water. I turned around, giggling and gesturing for Ryosuke to follow. He got up, and came down with me to the water's edge, but waited there while I went in. Both the father and the barefoot guy were standing there, astonished their mouths open. I didn't feel so bad really. Neither of them looked like they were going to call the police, and even if they did, it was probably legal anyway. Maybe I should do this kind of thing more often. I swam around for a while, but actually I felt almost like I was cheating hiding out in the water like this, so eventually I came back out. The barefoot guy was covering his face, just so shocked I guess to see me parading around naked like this. Even the father's kids had noticed me now, and came out to ask him what was going on. I wish I could have heard what he told them. Ryosuke had gone back to lie on the towel, so I came up, and stood at Ryosuke's feet, just so tickled that I'd got up the nerve to do this. It was just an amazing feeling. Ryosuke couldn't stop grinning either. I didn't want to tempt fate though, so eventually I got back dressed. That was like the most amazing day though really. I can still remember the expressions on those guys' faces. The whole thing was just priceless. In general, since then, I've tried not to go that far, but on the other hand, it is probably true that since then I have tended to feel more confident about getting naked even when people are around. Before that, I swear I was completely terrified of the whole idea. Anyway, hope you are well. Talk to you soon.
