Thought I'd talk about my experience with clothing optional events(public and private).

I've been naked over a hundred times at beaches, fairs, parades, spas, Marathon's ECT

The same factor always comes to play. Men who choose to remain fully clothed or in a bathing suit and gawk, stare, and constantly look around at the naked people. Making myself and probably everyone who is nude uncomfortable.

That's not even talking into account how the woman feel about being harassed and watched by creepy men and borderline predators not even coming for the beach.

No one is comfortable with the clothed single men or groups of men walking on or through the beach looking around gawking, making passes, and constantly looking in all directions.

I really wish clothing optional places would make it mandatory or have certain times to eliminate the behavior.

Same goes for Beaches. Have a nude only section that you can't enter if you aren't.

That's just my experience with the matter.
