About Bird Island, NC

It's not legally nude but people have been enjoying discreet nudity there for at least 50 years. I always go there around the last week of June every year and I am always able to be naked if I keep a respectful I out for beach runners or bikers or walkers and stay relatively close to the dunes for privacy.
