Part of the Gay Fort Lauderdale Guide — bars, events & things to do.

Fort Lauderdale, Florida
Fort Lauderdale's leather and fetish cruise bar since 1994.
Open since 1994, Ramrod is Fort Lauderdale's leather, Levi, and uniform bar and the anchor of the NE 4th Avenue corridor. The interior leans into the part, with industrial fixtures, gargoyles, and jail-cell details, plus a pool table, a bootblack station running on weekends, and the LeatherWerks shop on-site for gear, toys, and accessories. Out back, the Skull and Boner patio bar is the quieter place to cruise. Its signature is the Pig Dance on the first Saturday of each month, a guest-DJ night with a big outdoor setup, alongside an "Enforced Dress Code" night on third Sundays and a calendar of fetish-leaning events. The bar marked its 30th anniversary in 2024 and remains the kink-and-leather heart of the local scene, heavy-duty when it wants to be but welcoming to newcomers who show up respectful.

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.
