Have you ever been to a 'Clothing Optional' beach?

I have, but only once and not to sunbathe. I was in film college in Vancouver, Canada and my class was to do our first year film project. Just a short film. The writer/director scouted locations for us to film our 'Tidal Wave' scenes and chose Wreck Beach, the only nude beach in Vancouver, as the location. The beach itself is very secluded. There is only one way to get there. You have to park your vehicle on the side of the road and walk down 1000 steps to the beach below. (huff/puff) Going down wasn't so bad but carrying all that film equipment back up was a b*t*h. It was funny because once we set up the equipment and began to film...many metres away from where the nudists were...the nudists began to approach us (in the nude) and ask us what we're doing. We told them and carried on with our 'News report of a tsunami'. Apparently, the writer/director did not acquire permission from park authorities for us to film there and park security booted us out. It was a fun but uncomfortable experience.
