Mexico is a destination for many people looking to both relax and have a great time. This country is known for its friendly people. Some cities are big, fun, and loud, others are small and quaint with lots of culture. Gay vacations to Mexico are already a popular choice for couples and singles alike.
Though religion runs deep in the culture, this is a country that if full of acceptance, particularly in the bigger cities. You can find many hotels and attractions that are advertised as gay friendly. The capital, Mexico City, has legalized same sex marriage and adoption, while the rest of the country recognizes civil unions for gay couples.
Mexico City is the largest city in the world and filled with culture and history. There are more than one hundred and fifty museums in this city alone. Sites to see include colonial mansions and the third largest pyramid in the world. There is a variety of lodging to appeal to many different tastes. You can find anything from an affordable Bed and Breakfast to high end luxury hotels.
The gay neighborhood is famously known as La Zona Rosa, named after the pink stoned streets. Most of the bars, restaurants, and clubs are in this section of the city. They are all gay friendly, but there are a good number of clubs that are gay exclusive. One thing to keep in mind, the night begins fairly early because many of the locals use the metro system to get home at night. Public transportation ends at eleven, so clubs fill up early.
Puerto Vallarta is one of the most popular spots on the west coast. This is a quaint town that has developed over the years to provide modern convenience with ATMs and internet cafes. Take advantage of tours to the hot springs or take an excursion into the jungle with a river hike.
This is one of the best cities for the gay traveler. There are several gay beaches to choose from, but if you are in the Playa Los Muertos at the right season, you might be able to catch sightings of whales or a school of dolphins. At night, you can take in a drag show or play some gay bingo.
Cancun is a hot spot for anyone looking for a reasonably priced sun soaked vacation. The beaches here are known as some of the most beautiful in the world, and it is an excellent spot for underwater activity. When you want to leave the hotel district, downtown Cancun is great for shopping and meeting some of the locals.
Cancun is slowly emerging as a gay hot spot, though at one time it was known for having no official gay beach. That has changed with a crop of gay bars and a beach that is located at the south end of the hotel zone called Playa Delfines. In May there is the Cancun International Gay Festival and in November there is the Cancun Riviera Maya Gay Fall Festival.
The beautiful people and amazing weather are what people go to Mexico for. There are many more cities to entertain and welcome you, but these are a few of the favorites for gay tours to Mexico.

Hi Dude,
ReplyDeleteMexico city also allows gay couples to wed. The city government would pay the air fares for the newly-wed couple and is seeking sponsorship from hotels and restaurants to finance the rest of the honeymoon. Thanks a lot.....
