Hi,

Is there toplessness on the beach at the Marriott? I have 2 teenage sons and I would rather not have to deal with this. Is it a problem? Are there activities for 17 years olds or is there enough to do for all?

I know some beaches in Aruba do have toplessness but is the Marriott which is at the very end have this going on?

Thanks in advance

You will eventually have to "deal" with it someday!

Just got back and I was at the Marriott and didn't see one person topless!!!!

BKW why dont you put blinders on your boy"s ,If you have teen age sons why dont you go and check their rooms out I am sure you will find some kind of dirty magazine in there rooms if they are any sort of normal boys anyway,its a natural thing you shouldnt have to hide or cover up your body and yes they will see topless bathers on the beaches enjoy boys

We saw topless women at baby Beach, but that was it.

you are very immature and insentive to others.

IT'S THE TRUTH,DONT BE STUPID,YOUR TELLING ME A 17 YEAR OLDHAS NEVER SEEN A NAKED WOMAN? COME ON WHAT WORLD ARE YOU FROM. THE YOUNG MAN MUST HAVE SOMETHING WRONG WITH HIM, MOM MUST KEEP HIMISOLATED FROM THE WORLD,MUST NOT HAVE ANY FRIENDS EITHER

I stayed at Manchebo recently and I enjoyed seeing my wifes breasts amidst the beautiful scenery. Our 3 year old understands that we are all basically naked when we dont have any clothes on and he knows that men and women are built differently. My wife understands that it is kind of natural for me to notice other women's breasts but that it is her that i am in love with and will spend the rest of my life with and be faithful to. It's perfectly normal for teenage boys to be interested in women's breasts--especially when they are unrelated. I understand that when our son gets to be a teenager he might not want his mother/my wife to go topless on the beach but i dont get the impression that the mother who posed the original question is talking about her teenage sons dealing with her being topless but the totally awful prospect of her sons seeing the totally live naked breasts of sexually available young attractive females (lions and tigers and bears--oh my!)

Saw 2 or 3 topless women on the beach when I went recently with my 11 yr old son. I didn't comment on it and either did he. In the hotel area, topless bathing is really the exception. Actually what bothered me was seeing very overweight women in bikinis and thongs. Yikes! No shame!

Don't let this stop you from going to Aruba! Whatever you do, rent a jeep (or take a tour) of the desert to see the rugged side of the island. should be something teens will enjoy

NOTE: Topless/ Nude Sunbathing is ILLEGAL in Aruba... you can and most likely will be arrested for indecent exposure. So, take that into mind before you go baring your naughty bits to the world.
