Any suggestions about what can be done regarding the jerks who "dominate
the center of the beach" there?
I've run into similar groups at Sandy Hook. Requesting them politely to
tone it down usually gets either a rude reaction, with the problem
continuing or else it gets a polite apology, with the problem stopping
for 1-2 minutes before resuming at full force.

Not a bad report, Studebaker. I've seen the kind of drunken boorishness you
describe many times. Seldom does it get beyond the loutish stage, although all
of us wish at times they would just go away. Haulover is a public beach, you
are liable to see anything there. And as long as the louts don't break the law
we must endure their behavior.
My GF and I have recently moved ourselves away from the crowds in the central
part of the beach, after four years there, and now park at the southern end
between the last lifeguard station and the wooden fence. It is not nearly as
crowded there, but there is no shortage of colorful and amusing characters.
I get a little weary sometimes of those who have come to the beach a dozen
times in their lives and who then represent themselves as experts on what goes
on there. Those same people parade around on weekends as they were the "true"
denizens of the beach, with the keys to the secret knowledge of the beach.
They can have it. We've moved downbeach. So we're now off by ourselves with the
true beach characters, not the weekend warriors. Besides the weekend crowds by
the volleyball nets get a little too neurotic for us, there is a little too
much of checking each other out for our taste. That's not what we go to the
beach for.
But that being said, the appeal of Haulover will always be its diversity, and
while some deny the particular diversity they don't want to acknowledge in the
interest of their own political correctness (PC), that diversity is what makes
Haulover universally and eternally fun.
I did recognize some of the characters you describe, but their obnoxious
behavior is such that I'd just as soon not comment on them. I love Haulover
Beach and to continue enjoying it I find it is sometimes necessary to turn a
blind eye to some things.
I don't know if you noticed it, but it does seem to me there there have been
more women of all ages coming to Haulover alone in the last six month or year,
perhaps nudism is becoming more acceptable to women alone who merely want to
enjoy the beach.

I understand your point well. One thing I like about Haulover is
that strangers feel comfortable to talk to one another. But I think
there are limits. These guys I referenced in my report reminded me of
desperate guys who hit up every babe who enters a nightclub. They used
what I considered to be cheap pickup lines (Do I know you from
somewhere?) to wedge themselves between male/female couples. One of
the men plopped himself uninvited on a couple's cooler so that his
half-hard wiener pointed three feet from the wife. (Notice how they
never position themselves next to the boyfriend/husbands?) Whenever a
group of attractive people entered the beach, they'd nudge each other,
like I used to do with my horny buddies in college, and oggle
collectively. It's a public beach and loutishness is generally not
illegal. But I have no doubt that they'll scare off hesitant new
nudists. I'm trying to get my wife to go and she worries about being
hit on by aggressive jerks. Alas, I discovered my last trip that her
worries could be well founded. Take it easy.
Thanks for your report. People can now make a better decision on whether they
want to go to places like that.
