Greece offers an array of opportunities for a fantastic gay vacation. Gay travel to Greece will naturally include amazing sunrises, relaxing on white, sandy beaches, trekking to historical sites to explore ancient ruins, and ferrying between several of Greeces breathtakingly beautiful islands. Whether you dream of a gay vacation that includes family fun like picking olives and exploring museums, a restful respite in a seaside resort with your partner, or a rowdy week of taking in the Athens nightlife with a group of friends, Greece will undoubtedly prove to be an ideal setting for your gay travel plans.
Athens has several gay bars and clubs, as well as coffee shops and cafs that are gay-owned or gay-friendly. And, of course, there are saunas for gay men interested in the bathhouse scene during their gay vacation to Greece. Athens Relax is right across the street from a gay club and is a large sauna with mixed-age clientele, while Hera is a smaller sauna with more mature patrons. Limanakia beach, just south of Athens is a popular beach area for gay men that offers a rocky shore, underwater rock formations and swimming.
The Greek Island of Mykonos is well-known as a welcoming location for gay vacations and a hotspot for gay travel. With pristine beaches, breathtaking scenery, a lively nightlife, friendly locals and a cosmopolitan feel, this island is an ideal stop on any gay vacation to Greece. There are plenty of gay-friendly lodgings on Myknonos, including a gay-owned, adults only hotel catering exclusively to gay travelers. Another great choice when choosing which Greek islands to visit during your gay travel is Crete. While Crete does not exactly have a gay scene, this island that is popular with all types of travelers does have a gay-owned bed and breakfast, a handful of gay bars and establishments, gay beaches and a generally welcoming atmosphere, making this another great stop on a gay vacation to Greece.
The Island of Lesvos " often referred to as Lesbos " is an obvious choice for lesbian travelers where they can explore Sapphos birthplace, take romantic strolls along pristine beaches, experience a hydrotherapy spa treatment, people watch over ouzo at a sidewalk caf and indulge in the friendly women-centered nightlife. Of historical importance to the lesbian community and always filled with lesbian travelers, Lesvos is a must-see for women on a gay vacation to Greece.
