In the late 70s, Spain’s LGBTQ+ community rejoiced as homosexual activity was legalised across the country. All this meant was that they could no longer be sent down for going down after a night out – something they’d been doing since the beginning of time anyway!

Today, Spain is one of the most liberal countries in the world in terms of LGBTQ+ freedoms. In fact, according to a 2013 study by Pew Research Centre, a whopping 88% of Spanish citizens accept homosexuality as a part of the country's culture. Join us in raising a glass to Spain which came out on top (or so to speak) against the 38 other countries who were polled. 🥂

Playa de las Americas.

A lot of people have heard of Music Hall Tavern (MHT) ruling the canaries for 20 years and even going on tour in the UK! Not only is it somewhere for a superb three-course meal but it's a raunchy night filled with comedy, dancing and signing with these high energy star entertainers.

Babylon Disco Pub is a vastly popular club with a range of entertainment and plenty of different rooms if you're looking for something a bit darker. For a chilled-out terrace overlooking the ocean, head over to the bar with a view and a little bit of Latin Dancing at Agua de Coco.

Puerto de la Cruz.

There are quite a few show venues to choose from, with Tenerife having entertainment as a must! Why not try the cabaret at Anderson Gay Pub & Show Bar or the Galeón Lounge. If you fancy a relaxing spot with gourmet lunch then Vinoteca Con Pasión is a must.

For something a bit bigger - head in to the new town (Levante). Café Benidorm is one of the biggest bars in Benidorm and whilst it's not specifically an LGBTQ+ venue - is very welcoming and plays everything from Celine to Billy Ocean. You won't find a modern tune in here - so get your dancing shoes on!

Life's a beach, so why not enjoy it on this beautiful Island!

Playa de la Tejita in the south of the island might be the most gay popular beach, but expect to see a Blue Flag waving to celebrate its cleanliness! As well as seeing the gorgeous coastline, expect to get an eyeful as this beach is popular among those who need a golden tan with no lines!

Playa Los Callados is a little less sandy - a bit more pebbly and is also for people in their birthday suits. This beach is known for people getting a little more adventurous if you catch my drift, so be careful with those bare bums on the stones! Heading up north you get Playa Martiánez, also known for its adventure, day and night! It's got volcanic sand and is close to the waterpark.

There's something for everyone on this Island, you could explore Tenerife's natural beauties in El Teide National Park or go watching for Whales & Dolphins on a boating excursion. There's the botanical gardens and the incredibly picturesque village of Masca too.

In need of an adrenaline rush? There's plenty of watersports to do at the many beaches or even head over to the amazing Siam Park Water Kingdom!

nobody likes rain, right?
