Flockfest Fort Lauderdale

It's a truth universally acknowledged that Fort Lauderdale has lovely beaches. So naturally, it also has an event that celebrates those beaches. At the annual FlockFest, which takes place every July, gaggles of gays gather with their cutest winged floaties and donuts and fill up one of the city's many beaches for the day. The sheer number of floats at this event is a sight to behold, and the minute you see them, you'll want to try all of them. (Just remember to ask first.)

In any case, when it's time to book your accommodations, then you'll definitely want to consider the city's beachside options for gays. The Royal Palms is an all-time great, but you also can't go wrong with the all-male Villa Venice Men's Resort. Cap it all off with a casual seafood meal at Aruba Beach Café or a sensational sushi supper at Sozo.
