Gay Sailing Along the Dalmatian Coast in Croatia

Pride Sailing is once more seeking a motley crew of men to board their luxury yacht for a 7-day sailing trip through Croatia in June, July, August, or September 2025. The adventure begins in the historically rich coastal city of Split before embarking on an island-hopping voyage along the Dalmatian coast. You’ll stop at six islands over the course of the week, from the wild—yet undeniably gorgeous—party island of Hvar to the verdant green island of Mljet with its huge National Park; each island has its own distinctive personality. The final port is the iconically beautiful town of Dubrovnik, of Game of Thrones fame, with its Venetian red-roofed buildings. Over the week, you can expect emerald green waters, watersports, glistening blue caves, stunning sunsets and uniquely curated on-land excursions that best showcase all that Croatia offers. Back aboard there'll be fun group activities, Naked Mondays, Wig Wednesdays, a White Party, and much more. Don’t wait, come seas the day with Pride Sailing.

Gay Travel Guide to Madrid

Madrid is our home city, so you can safely assume we’re rather passionate about it. Spain’s capital has everything an LGBTQ+ tourist—or expat—could possibly want. It’s perhaps the most gay-friendly city in the world, drawing in upwards of 3 million LGBTQ+ tourists annually. The city has a population of around 500,000 LGBTQ+ residents and hosts the biggest Pride festival in Europe. Honestly, sometimes when walking the streets of Madrid, it can feel like the gays outnumber the straight.
