I've read elsewhere that topless/nude sunbathing is on the decline sadly. I was lucky enough to spend a month in NW France every summer between 1987 & 1990.
The first amazement was when we visited a nearby beach the holiday rep had recommended, I saw 2 nude teen babes (Dutch I think) when I went to the ice-lolly stand!
The rep had told my Dad to avoid the nude section by turning left at the end of the path but he forgot & turned right lol. I remember him telling this story to my uncle & how embarrassed he was that I had seen naked women
Because I found this out, the next day I decided to walk the 3km & back to the nudist beach while my parents were away so I could ogle, the first time I'd ever seen real naked women & these were prime specimens! I do believe this experience was the beginning of my voyeurism.
Then I thought why not try the local beach just 1km away? To my amazement topless & the occasional nude girl were there too. You could walk up & down a raised boulevard & look down at sunbathing beauties. I vividly remember one young French stunner about 23 standing up to apply sun-tan lotion all over her incredibly firm naked body in full view of several elderly local Frenchmen playing 'boules'.
The men to their credit mostly concentrated on the game but I saw a few admiring glances. As I turn 50 this month I'm so jealous, it must have been wonderful for these 65-75 retired old men to have a few games of boules, glasses of vin rouge in lovely weather while subtly ogling nearby topless & naked young honeys.
