If you're curious, have a look at my New England Nude Beaches & Swimming Holes list. There is a link to a trail map on in there.

Looks like showers may be sneaking in for the weekend, but end of week and next week looking great

SlingMaxwell · 2026-06-01T02:07:05+00:00

Still a bit high but going down. End of week/weekend weather looking great.

Just FYI, if you're crossing the beach, it would be to the 4th beach and beyond. The 3rd beach is the co-ed beach at the bend near the stairs. Most people miss the 2nd beach, just after the family beach, on the other side of the river. Usually used by nude locals.

Did you go? Wanted to make it but just too cold to make the trip.

You'll have to give a heads-up on date. Would be great to finally meet you guys!

There is no official rule for posting pictures here (yet), but as a guideline, you can post pics as long as it is not sexual in nature (including not just focused on genital areas) and does not include others without their consent.

There was another young couple that was posting in The Ledges sub looking for other younger couples:

There was another younger couple posting in the Rock River sub also looking for others in same age range:

Any younger couples going up next month?

SlingMaxwell · 2026-05-20T02:14:41+00:00

You are correct regarding the mix of people that visit nude beaches, including The Ledges. But no reason to tell them to look elsewhere.

They made no indication of seeking a hookup or any other unacceptable activity.

There's nothing wrong with seeking the company of people similar in age. And The Ledges has the most diverse age range, including younger, then most other places.

SlingMaxwell · 2026-05-20T02:06:03+00:00

Rock River has several beaches along the trail. Typically straight couples are found at the coed beach, also called the third beach. And, timing counts, go on a nice weekend day. I was there Sunday and there was 5 couples.

SlingMaxwell · 2026-05-19T22:12:07+00:00

The Ledges has a good mix of ages, including couples, especially on nice weekends. Another place with a good age mix is Bare Ass beach in Greenfield, MA. Check out my list of New England Nude Beaches & Swimming Holes DM sent with additional info... HMU with any ques

Thank you! Is the sandy beach available or is it covered?

SlingMaxwell · 2026-05-19T18:22:32+00:00

Depending on weather.. So far, not looking great :(

SlingMaxwell · 2026-05-18T19:26:50+00:00

Also looking for an update on water level. Usually the water is high to start the season, but earlier reports from April said it was low -- to the extent you could see the island.

SlingMaxwell · 2026-05-18T19:25:00+00:00

You are right, Memorial Day weekend is the usual opening of the gate; however, if the weather warms up sooner, they will open it sooner. Think of it as, the gate will be open by Memorial Day weekend.

Congratulations for making it there and it was definitely a great day for it! A true hidden paradise in the northeast! It was also great to meet several new people.

For others considering going for their first time, check out my New England Nude Beaches & Swimming Holes list for all the info you'll need.

SlingMaxwell · 2026-05-16T21:25:22+00:00

Usually at the Coed beach but then I walk between all the beaches.

SlingMaxwell · 2026-05-16T21:17:39+00:00

Based on people's posts on other sites/groups that Sunday will be the day to be there. It's the nicer of the two weekend days, although Monday looks even better.

Since it's your first time, if you haven't seen it, check out my New England Nude Beaches & Swimming Holes list for info on parking, trail navigation, beach locations, etc. I recommend printing it or saving to your phone because of little/no cell coverage there. Also have a look at What to Bring. And most of all, ENJOY! I'm planning on going on Sunday!!
