Gay Beach Vacations for the East Coast Gay Traveler.  Perfect Gay Vacation Destinations for your Gay Weddings.  Perfect locations as well.

When people who have just come out of the closet think homosexual vacations and homosexual beaches on the east coast, most of them only think about Miami and South Beach. The thing is that there are actually a lot more options and much better ones if the goal of your vacation is to escape busy cities and city life and just relax. Furthermore, although I absolutely love and adore South Beach, it isn’t lgbt anymore, but we’ll go over that shortly. Here are my reviews of the top gay beach towns in the US and on the East Coast. We’ll start from the top and P Town to south and Key West. If you need to book a hotel in one of these homosexual beach cities as well, then there is only one option that I ever use, Bookable.com.

Provincetown Massachusetts.

Provincetown Massachusetts or better known as Ptown was made famous by a couple of movies from the 70′s and 80′s as the predominant homosexual beach and lgbt vacation destination in the USA. Just like the other homosexual beaches around the country, Ptown is only good between Memorial Day and Labor Day, other than that Provincetown is dead as a doorknob. With a bunch of bed and breakfasts, cocktails and lounges, Provincetown enables you to take relaxing bike rides along the ocean and on trails as well as have fun and enjoy the night with a fun club or lounge atmosphere. Provincetown is a classic gay getaway and one that attracts all of the hot guys from New England and NY (when they get tired of Fire Island which we will review next).

Fire Island, New York.

Fire Island is basically just that, an island of all the flaming queens of NYC and even some of the grrls from DC, Philly and New England. When the rich people of NYC go up to the Hamptons and others hit the Jersey Shore, the gays go to Fire Island for their own lgbt beach getaway from NYC. Fire Island is known as a lgbt getaway around the world and if you want to keep a city feel in the clubs but a relaxing beach atmosphere with hot in shape men, Fire Island New York is the ideal homosexual getaway for you. I personally got tired of and am over Fire Island, but then again, if I’m going to NY I only want NYC which is why I probably hate Fire Island, I just want to head straight to Manhattan and go shopping and to broadway. Fire Island is a great lgbt beach and if you want to enjoy NY but need a break from the city, Fire Island is perfect for you.

Rehoboth Beach Delaware.

Rehoboth Beach Delaware is a personal favorite beach getaway for me. Since I live in DC, Rehoboth Beach is only a couple of hours away and when I get tired of going out to the clubs, dealing with work and all of the people in DC, I head to Rehoboth Beach. Not only does Rehoboth Beach boast a 95% gay population, but they also have a couple of showtunes bars with piano players, they have lounges, amazing junk food like Candy Kitchen and Dollies as well as Thrashers Fries, Grottos Pizza and more. Rehoboth Beach doesn’t have a huge club but they do have a massive circuit party Called Sundance each year over Labor Day weekend each year. Rehoboth Beach is a great small beach town and you can find Rehoboth Beach Hotel Reviews here.

South Beach Miami Florida.

South Beach is no longer a lgbt beach. Unfortunately the straight people took it over and not only did the prices go up, but the amount of clubs and fun went down big time. You still have clubs like Score or Twist and you still have shopping and site seeing, but the actual look and feel and overall homosexual life or gay beaches being actual homosexual beaches in South Beach no longer exist. South Beach is no longer a homosexual beach, it has a large homosexual population and is extremely gay friendly but it is not a gay beach anymore. All of the gays moved to Ft. Lauderdale Florida so if you want the new south beach, try Ft, Lauderdale, that is quickly becoming the new South Beach.

Key West Florida.

Key West Florida is the southernmost destination in the US or Florida I think. Every year on New years they drop a drag queen in a high heel instead of a disco ball like in NY and all year round the gays flock to Key West to party. On season is in the winter since that is when the temperature is about perfect but even during the summer when the heat is insane, Key West keeps people coming in for their huge parties, fabulous beach houses and bed and breakfasts and fun Florida foods. When you go to Key West for your homosexual beach vacation, you have to try the food and go to the beach, but most importantly you have to have Key Lime Pie. Not only is this where Key Lime Pie came from, but it is completely worth breaking your diet over. I love Key West and the key lime pie makes it even better. You have a million options of where to stay and what to do in Key West and it is the last truly lgbt beach in Florida, besides Ft. Lauderdale which is becoming the new South Beach. I highly recommend and love Key West and if you love the trailer park drag queens and an overall amazing time with something for everyone, Key West is the perfect gay beach destination for you.

Homosexual Beaches are the perfect way to get away from any major city. You have a ton of options and places to go to and even more if you want beach accessible cities like the lesbian city New Hope in Pennsylvania. The main party weekends for lgbt beaches in the US and especially on the east coast are Memorial Day Weekend, 4th of July Weekend and Labor Day Weekend. If you want to go to a homosexual beach for any of these weekends, book early because they sell out fast.
