Tampa, Florida
Ybor City neighborhood gay bar with weekend drag and a patio.
Bradley's on 7th has anchored the gay corner of Ybor City's entertainment district since 2011, a neighborhood bar that trades polish for personality. The room is full of character, from the water-feature bar fixtures to a pool table and a small dance floor, and a large covered patio looks out over 7th Avenue for prime people-watching. Weekend nights bring drag shows, while the rest of the week leans on themed parties and cheap drinks. It's a dive at heart, friendly and unpretentious, the kind of place where the crowd is mixed, the bartenders know the regulars, and nobody's dressed to impress. For travelers working their way through GaYbor's bar strip, Bradley's is the easygoing one to start or end a night in, a short walk from the rest of the Avenue's clubs.

We verified 32 LGBTQ+ campgrounds in the US, from 700-acre men's retreats in the Ozarks to a women-only resort in Michigan's Thumb. This guide covers every one we could verify from the campground's own website: who's welcome, what clothing optional means there, what you can sleep in, what it costs and when the season runs.

Florida's gay resorts are spread across five cities with very different styles. Here is the statewide picture: which cities have clothing-optional men's resorts, which have gay hotels anyone can book, what each one's own site says it costs, and where to go deeper.

Tampa's gay bar scene lives in the GaYbor District along East 7th Avenue in Ybor City — a walkable, historic neighborhood with drag nights, dance clubs, and a leather bar tucked just off the strip.

Tampa's GaYbor District is the heart of the city's gay scene — and staying in or near Ybor City means walking home from the bars. Here's where to sleep on your next gay trip to Tampa.

Tampa's iconic Pride parade is on hiatus in 2026, but the community showed up anyway — and St Pete Pride across the bay (June 26–28) is the metro's big Pride summer.
