Popular Sydney nudist beach raided
February 22, 2010 - 6:12AM
A popular beach for nudists has been raided by police following
community concerns over illegal behaviour.
Families with small children were among the 140 people sunbathing on
Little Congwong Beach at La Perouse, in Sydney’s south, when police
and National Parks and Wildlife officers arrived about 12.30pm
yesterday.
About 80 people were completely naked but the children present were
fully clothed.
The officers attended the beach, which is not a designated nude
sunbathing area, following complaints from the community.
Little Congwong Beach is within viewing distance from Bare Island - a
popular destination for tourists and locals.
Police informed nude sunbathers of their illegal behaviour, prompting
them to get dressed and leave the area.
Officers returned at 4pm, which prompted more nude sunbathers to
vacate the beach.
Police said legal nude bathing beaches located in the Sydney
metropolitan region included Lady Bay Beach at Watsons Bay and
Cobblers and Obelisk Beach at Middle Head.
