The Buns first naked trip outside of Europe
so we decided to aim high and went for one of the best known resorts in
the Caribbean.
Club Orient.
Arrival after the 2.5 hour flight from Miami
was smooth and well organised. We were given our keys, towels and sun
bed tokens and taken with our bags on a tour of the site on a golf buggy
before being dropped off at the accommodation.

The accommodation was a semi-detached affair
made of thick planks equipped with a fully functioning bathroom bigger
than in many British houses, a full kitchen, a double bedded bedroom and
a lounge dinner all with air con. Outside there were patio areas front
and rear. The gardens were beautifully tended.

The beach and the sea were both clean and
while the sea was warm (30+C) the white sand stayed cool even in full
sun! The beach was equipped with loungers and parasols which you could
reserve for your stay with the sun bed tokens, not that we bothered
September is the quiet season... just missed the hurricanes. In high
season Jan/Feb the beach does get busy.

September ..
The staff were friendly and helpful the site
shop was reasonable but the wine stocked was very expensive and almost
cheaper by the glass at the bar!
The only slight down side was the number of
cruisers, from the cruise ships, that visit the beach however some join
in and this could create wider acceptance.. We hope you enjoyed the rest
of the trip Birthday Girl and your 2 mates from Wales, as much as you
enjoyed your first skinny dip!

looking north...
Would we go back ..... as we both stood
saying goodbye to beach on the last day, with tears in our eyes, we
promised we will be back and for longer next time! So that is a big YES!
Sell Granny, your soul to the devil or the kids to the slave traders what
ever it takes and go and swim naked in the sea at Orient Bay, Saint
Martin, French West Indies.

Washing away the tears, a final early
morning swim
