OK, Cybercayecaulker..I go to the split at least 5 times a week.for an hour or so at atime with my dog..true this is a conservative country. mostly Catholic..and in my opinion its a bit rude to go topless in view of the faith of the decent folks here..but in summer almost everyday I( see at least 2 girls topless,up to 5 or 6.usually European. they seem to need a back up..in 8 years I have never seen a police ask them to put their top on.although I have seen them pass by. I have never seen anyone going topless except around the split area, and in 8 years I have seen you down there once..so I am wondering where your info comes from..Sorry if my pastpost seemed flippant..I thought the question funny, and was trying to make a joke.

Well thanks to all for the info. Like we said we dont want to offend anyone. We have rented a place south of the airstrip and was hoping it was ok on the pier or right in that area around the rental.

Thanks to all and cant wait to get down there.

Debbie, you and I are operating on different schedules. I didn't know you were keeping track of my whereabouts. Thanks for the apology, because it was flippant.

To thecore:
You'll have lots of privacy south of the airstrip.

We the core will be comming from Texas.

We can not wait to see your beautiful island.

very soon we will be there.. do have another set of questions..

Shark ray alley tour

Zip line/cave tubing

Mayan ruins

Kayak rental (on our own)

Thanks
TheCore

I'm pretty sure you can get a "topless discount" on any local tour, but only on days that end in Y!

BTW, I've only been to the split 3 times and saw topless women 2 x's and totally nude dude jumping off the diving board x 1. No one seemed offended by any of them even the quite ugly, "must have been some really cold water" (to quote my wife) dude who paraded around naked and jumped off the board twice I guess as a joke or dare.

Only my 12 y/o and 16 y/o sons were overly excited about the topless girls. Didn't bother us nor did it seem to bother anyone else.

My only suggestion is.....WAIT TILL JULY TO GO! We'll be there then:)

I would have love to meet you. But we will be in may (yupe very soon). We have no intent to go topless but the beach. Haha. I can see giving myself black eyes jumping. Haha. Thecore

I would say wait till you get there and decide for yourself if it's appropriate. You'll see. Very conservative country. Don't be an "ugly American" tourist. Have respect for the place you are visiting.
