The Lighthouse
History Of Lighthouse Beach
No one is sure when bare sunbathing began on this particular part of the coast. The first reports with this activity date back to the 1950's. The Robert Moses Causeway significantly improved accessibility to the park in 1964, and its popularity appears to have taken off from there.
Since the 1980s, use of the Lighthouse as a historical landmark draw has sparked controversy over the existence of naturists on the beach. It really is open to visitors, which included teachers with groups of schoolchildren. Some teachers complained about the observable naturists plus some simply did not desire to have explain to kids that we are all, in fact, naked under our clothes.
Members of the Lighthouse Preservation Society had differing opinions, but did not desire to prohibit anyone. Negotiations resulted in a small section before the lighthouse becoming cloth. So the once long expanse of clothing optional beach was divide into two huge segments, with a textile part in between. The western c/o section might be known as Kismet West to differentiate it from the eastern c/o part. The sections are clearly marked by signs, so you'll know where nudity is permitted and where it is not. Obviously, it really is legal to go topfreeon all public beaches in NY state since 1992.
