Gay cruise

London is well known for its vibrant cosmopolitan atmosphere, club culture, anything goes mentality and abundance of leisure and recreation activities available.  The gay scene in London does not disappoint with a number of underground and main stream venues. Amongst the most popular of the mainstream are those such as Heaven, G.A.Y and Fire amongst numerous bars in the Soho district of London catering to the gay scenes clientele. There are a number of bars such as GAY Late and GAY bar which are affiliated to the club by the same name, as well as  Ku Bar, Barcode and  First Out a short distance away in Covent Garden. The gay scene isn’t in just one location but quite widely spread out with Clubs in embankment, Vauxhall and even the O2 arena for instance which makes it very different to many other major Cities in the UK where the gay scene is usually predisposed to one select area.

The London Pride is a major event drawing crowds from all over the world to join in with the gaiety of the hip and trendy event. If your in London you are bound to find a club or bar that tickles your fancy never mind what your fetishes maybe!!!

Berlin is one of the top destinations to visit in Europe for gay guys. You are literally spoilt for choice with the many gay bars and gay clubs along with sex shops and gay friendly restaurants. Be warned though many of the gay venues do not allow women in (although some do) but it’s quite different in that respect from going to gay venues in other European Countries.

So, the top places to visit for gay venues in Berlin are the districts of Schoneberg and Kreuzberg. These are both on the Western side of Berlin. Also, a newer gay area is Friedrichshain which has been developed as another gay area with many gay clubs and cafes.

The good thing about Berlin is that many of the clubs and bars stay open very late – some until 8am the next morning so you can literally party your way all through the night! The public transport is also very goof with the U-bahn and S-bahn operating through the night in addition to the many bus services.

The gay bars in Berlin often offer darkrooms and saunas. It is quite different to going out in other European destinations such as England/France. However, it is definitely worth trying out this experience!!

Paris is not only the capital of France but also the capital of romance and it is certainly the capital of gay romance too! Many gay guys live in Paris and even more head to the capital to take advantage of the hundreds of gay bars and clubs. The main gay zone within Paris is called Le Marais. This can be easily reached by the following three metro stations: Hotel, Rambuteau and Chatelet. The Paris Gay Pride is not be be missed. In 2011 it is schedled for 10 – 13th of June. In France they call it “Marche des Fiertes LGBT” so keep an eye out for that!

The area of Marais contains many narrow windowing streets and breathtaking buildings. Here you will find many gay bars and cafes. There are also gay shops and gay friendly restaurants to eat at. Gay Parisians are not too keen on obvious flirting! If you flirt too much you could come across as needy and scare them away! Having said that there are plenty of hot French guys for you to get to know! It’s a good idea to go out with a group of friends though especially if your French isn’t too good. Having said that many French guys do speak Engligh so you shouldn’t have too many problems! Bon Voyage!!

Brighton is known worldwide for it’s large selection of gay bars, pubs and clubs all on the seafront. On your next trip to brighton why not consider paying visit to the following…

Vavoom video bar – this funky bar has a video jukebox on constantly and large plasma screens to watch music videos on. It’s in the centre of Old Steine and next door to Club Revenge. It’s definitely a good place to get your evening started!!

R Bar – this is the bar next to Club Revenge. It often has drinks promotions on e.g. the barman tosses a coin and if you guess right you get your round doubled for free – perfect! They also often hand out free entry tickets to revenge in here so it’s worth popping in if you are planning to goto Revenge later.

Legends – this bar and club is further up the seafront. It’s normally open very late – I think the bar closes at around 5am. There is a terrace overlooking the sea which is very nice for sunny afternoons. The main bar is on ground level and then there is a club in the basement. The club doesn’t normally get busy until quite late but it is definitely worth a look!

The revenge club can be seen as the heartland of the gay scene for any hot young man look to check out the local talent. This club is highly rated especially as it is based in the UK’s major gay destination of Brighton.

Most of the major events club wise with regards to the gay scene take place here. Check out the events, the pumping tunes on the different levels and your bound to find both the right scene and totty for you to take home at the end of a wicked night. You will find this legendary venue a few steps away from Brighton landmark pier, and numerous gay bars based along the seafront and St James Street.

There are loads of deals for young students donning their NUS cards. There is a roof top terrace at the venue for any smokers or those wishing to get a breather from the throngs of hot bods. You can sometimes get free entry to the venue by collecting a flyer from the R-Bar which you will probably frequent for a few bevys before dancing the night away.
