.... There was a time, long ago, that the wife and I checked out many of the local public nude opportunities in and around New Jersey, including Higbee Beach mentioned above. It was wasn't very pretty, and sparsely used. And because it wasn't officially a nude beach, everyone was always on the lookout for the law.
... We tried a couple remote lakes in North Jersey, not a great environment either, but did see a few people basking nude on lakeside boulders.
... One spot that seemed like it could be a fun place, a tiny unnamed pond near Stockton College that was within earshot of the Parkway. Nude couples and parties all around the lake. We were having fun, and considering a dip in the pond when the wife spotted a friggin' snake swimming by! She freaked out and we were out of there in record time!
... A local nudist group was trying to develop a nude area on Island Beach State Park. We checked that out a few times. Seems we were the only ones there naked! And always having to keep a watchful eye, State Rangers coming and going. So it wasn't fun.
... A popular spot for us that we used many, many times was the bay side of Gunnison area. More accurately, opposite Fishing Beach F. or, south of Horseshoe Cove. We were the only ones there, just a passing boater, beachcomber or fisherman on the beach. Naked was not legal, but never a problem. The main attraction for us was the fact that we could bring our big dog, not allowed on Gunnison during summer months. Plus, the wife seems to like being naked where it isn't the norm. But we did have a lot of interesting experiences there, including boaters coming ashore nearby and getting naked quite a few times, also boaters anchoring off near us and getting naked.
... Before we got acquainted with the bay side, we'd venture beyond North Beach to an area frequented by surf fishermen and beachcombers. Again, nudity no allowed, but Bonnie seemed to enjoy being naked there.
... But to sum it up, to my knowledge Gunnison Beach is the only active public nude opportunity in NJ.
