The complete LGBTQ+ guide to San Juan: the gay beaches, the Santurce nightlife district, gay-owned hotels, Pride, and why Puerto Rico is the easiest Caribbean trip a US traveler can take.

San Juan has one of the Caribbean's best gay scenes — a walkable Santurce club cluster, historic Old San Juan bars, a dedicated bear bar, and a lesbian café. Here's the full roster.

Every gay and lesbian cruise from November 2026 to February 2028 in one sortable table, with ships, ports, real fares and sold-out status, checked on the operators’ own sites.

Which gay cruise fits you? Atlantis, VACAYA, Olivia, Brand g, Big Gay Cruise, bear cruises and more, compared by vibe, ship size, price and who each one is for.

The men-only and gay-only hotels still open outside the US, from Gran Canaria's clothing-optional bungalows to Cambodia, Bali, Cape Town and New Zealand, and the famous names that have closed.

The Grindr scams that actually happen, from sextortion and verification-code tricks to robbery set-ups abroad, plus the settings to change before you travel and what to do if you're targeted.
