    Thanks! Cape Town looks beautiful, LGBTQAI+ friendly. I bet the nude beach was fun, although a hike, reminding me of Black's Beach in San Diego. You showed nightlife and some decent restaurants. Yet no shopping. I have an acquaintance and Facebook friend, who lives there. I met him through my church.

    Lifelong Capetonian here so I'm abut biased. But as a frequent traveler to other countries as a tourist, i will say that Cape Town is still one of the best cities to visit. And talk about value for money if you earn your salary in euros, dollars or pounds. On this gay guide, i would def also add Honey & Dora (another gay restaurant), Crew Bar (Disco) and Zero 21 (A drag bar / disco). For those with a naughty streak, try out Shaft (sauna / bath house). That said. Great and informative video. Just subscribed and look forward to watching your other videos to learn more about gay places in other countries.

      @TwoGayExpats  4 місяці тому +1

      Yes, gorgeous city! We found people from all counties and races at Pink Candy and at the beaches. Less so at some of the pricier venues as most likely cater mostly to foreigners. We met plenty of Europeans but less locals for sure. Hopefully, that will continue to change over time.

    You took the uphill hike from Sandy Bay? That’s a hectic 10 - 20 minute hike heading over to Hout Bay!

    Instead of just checking out gay clubs, bars, and nude beaches for the young it would be nice to hear about any actual gay "community" that exists in different places if in fact there are any. There used to be gay community back before AIDs but now everything seems to be quick Grindr hook ups and over 40 and you are out as being gay now is really just a sexual preference for the young.
