The guide

Where exactly

Go North on Hwy 1 till you pass mile marker 10. Turn right (east) at the Circle K food mart on the corner onto Boca Chica Road. Drive till you can't go any further. Park. Walk through the barriers and continue down what's left of old Highway 1 for about a mile. NAS will be on your right and Atlantic Ocean on your left. It is a good hike. When you encounter some rocks, go to the right and go where the road picks up again. Just after you are on the road, look to the left for a trail. The trail is a alternate route instead of climbing the rocks. Just beyond that there are places to hike and lay out au natural.

Cruisiest spot: Although the majority of nude sunbathing is done at the first beach area, continue walking the trails deeper into the brush and you'll discover other secluded spots along the beach and in the bush where activity occurs.

When to go

Appears to be accessible 24 hours a day,but real active during the day.

Etiquette

Take some tanning lotion and something cool to drink as it can get extremely "hot" here.

This is an even longer walk since the hurricanes washed out more of what's left of the road. Now you have to walk on seaweed and leaves that have piled up against the Navy fence and the footing is unsure. It was a cloudy day with only a few cars parked at the end of the road so I turned back about halfway there. It just didn't seem worth it. I wonder how many people talk the long walk back there these days.
