Fort Lauderdale, Florida
National membership organization for 350+ LGBTQ+ community centers
The national coalition behind more than 350 LGBTQ+ community centers across 48 states, Puerto Rico, Canada, and Australia. Founded in 1994 and headquartered in Fort Lauderdale, CenterLink provides training, technical assistance, and networking for the community centers that directly serve LGBTQ+ people on the ground — from health services and youth programs to social groups and cultural events. Key programs include the Leadership Institute for center executives, HealthLink (a program that helps member centers strengthen their health programming around mental health, sexual health, and affirming care), and an annual conference that brings together community center leaders from across the country. CenterLink doesn’t run drop-in programming itself — it’s the infrastructure organization that makes hundreds of local centers stronger.

The complete LGBTQ+ guide to Fort Lauderdale and Wilton Manors — America's gayborhood by the sea with 30+ venues on Wilton Drive, Sebastian Beach, and year-round events.

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.

Fort Lauderdale has ten gay resorts and guesthouses, most of them men-only and clothing-optional, split between the beach side and Wilton Manors. Here is each one, what its own site says about pools, policies and rates, which ones sell day passes, and the all-welcome beach hotels to pick if you want the ocean instead of a walled garden.

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.

Your guide to the best gay beaches in Florida — the top LGBTQ+ sands from Miami to Key West, what to expect at each, and where to stay nearby.
