Gay Travel To Sydney, Australia
Sydney is one of the world’s favorite cities. Set on a stunning harbor the shopping and dining variety are superb and you are within easy access of the great outdoors. Sydney was voted by the readers of Conde Naste in 2008. Sydney is a gay friendly city and its wide range of attractions encourages gay travel to this part of Australia.
The city has a full calendar of Gay and Lesbian events but the biggest of them all is the Gay and Lesbian Mardi Gras. This parade and celebration is held each year in late February and it is a Mecca for fun. The parade is such a part of the general Sydney calendar that it is an attraction for non homosexuals who want to watch the parade, and the parade is shown on commercial TV.
The beaches are endless and the best time to be here is from October to March, the Australian summer period. North Bondi is always a classic, but if you want to find a nude beach there are four in easy reach of the city center. If you are a little more energetic you can make the 30 minute walk from Bronte to Bondi to enjoy the coast.
Food is a passion here and eating alongside the harbor or the beach is a wonderful way to pass a sunny lunch hour or a balmy evening. If you are invited to a hotel for a drink, just remember the Aussies often call their pubs “hotels”.
Oxford Street has been termed Sydney’s Pink strip and has a long established history. This is where the parade goes and where you will find shops, clubs and bars for the gay community.
Gay travel to Sydney Australia is a rewarding experience. The seasons are the opposite of those in the Northern hemisphere so if you are in need of some sun and fun, in a gay friendly environment, Sydney is a prime destination.
Or you might consider a very different destination in the Southern hemisphere: Gay travel to Brazil is gaining popularity, as well.
