Hanlan's Point has survived more than a century of shifting attitudes toward public nudity, but its future may now depend on decisions far beyond the beach itself. As federal officials weigh a major airport expansion, one of Canada's most historically significant naturist and queer spaces finds itself confronting the possibility that it could simply be built over.

The clock is running on Mākena

The debate over Mākena State Park isn't really about toilets or parking spaces. It is about who gets to reach the shoreline, how public land is managed, and what happens when an informal culture depends on access that was never formally guaranteed.
