Tel Aviv is a city that’s always alive. It boasts the best gay scene in the Middle East, one of the youngest populations globally, stunning beaches, and fantastic weather.
The Gay Scene in Tel Aviv is concentrated in a few key areas, including Rothschild, Shenkin, and Dizengoff. Rothschild Boulevard is the heart of the scene, home to several gay clubs and bars. As you leave Rothschild Street, you’ll come to Shenkin Street, which is particularly busy on weekends. Nearby, you’ll also find the Dizengoff Centre, one of the city’s main shopping hubs.
The beach is one of the best in the region, with crystal-clear waters, making it an ideal spot for relaxing and sunbathing. There’s also the Gay Beach at the Hilton, open to all, or for something more adventurous, you could head to the Ga’ash nudist beach.
Tel Aviv offers vibrant nightlife, both straight and gay, especially on weekends (Thursdays and Fridays in Israel). Evita is one of the most popular bars, open every day, and we’ll be treating our guests to a complimentary drink here! During Pride Week, the city hosts over 50 Gay events, ensuring there’s always something exciting to do!
