Expect the lowlands around Tikal to be hot and humid and the volnos to be que GuatemalaThough homosexualy is legal for persons over 18 years of age, the realy is that Guatemala is a mostly Catholic and socially nservative untry not entirely acceptg of the LGBTQ muny.

DISVER THE ULTIMATE GAY GUATEMALA ERARY

That said, public displays of affectn are ill-advised anywhere the untry, and even tourist hot-spots, expect the gay muny to be discreet.

GUATEMALA GAY GUI AND HOTELS

THIS IS A CONTINUOUSLY UPDATING RESOURCE - Please help keep current by mentg or msagg wh new rmatnGUATEMALAGay Marriage (nor civil unns or domtic partnership) is not regnized Guatemala. It has been hotly bated and legislatn was troduced last year to legalize gay marriage and swiftly failed. However, Guatemala also elected s first openly gay person to the Senate this year and Guatemala Cy hosts an annual, well-attend gay-pri para.

Attus towards homosexualy vary wily different parts of Guatemala. Antigua is generally gay-acceptg but not very gay “open” – ’s a low-key acceptance.

Women would have no problem walkg down the street holdg hands (s part of the culture for women to do so) but for men, I would not remend - though, there are TONS of gay men Antigua. But those are different blog posts – this is about gay thgs so here we go:Gay Bar/Club Scene: Frida’s Ati Upstairs Bar: Frida’s is a well-loted, touristy rtrant (wh credible margaras and a Sunday bnch to die for) but UPSTAIRS, at night, the rtrant turns lols dance club! Frida’s is Lbian-owned, not exclively gay but has very gay monthly events and weekly dance parti featurg techno, electronic and hoe mic wh an always open and welg atmosphere.

THE ULTIMATE GUI TO GAY CENTRAL AMERI

Whether man, woman, transgenr, straight, gay, sgle or upled, at Frida’s you n tly be yourself.

The Backyard Bar and Rtrant: When we first got to Antigua, I asked around the expat pag for remendatns on gay plac and several people said to me, go to the back porch of Backyard Bar – sound super sketchy to me. Red's Bar: we did not go to this bar and is a ltle odd to me bee on the surface seems like a straight sport's bar but we noticed they often advertise VERY gay events, hosted the Miss Gay Guatemala pageant and are listed as a gay men's bar on a few Guatemala pag. Vudú Bar: this bar is straight-owned but very gay wh their signature drk lled Unirn Pe and rabow-themed everythg.

GAY BAR AT GUATEMALA, GUATEMALA

Rtrant Scene:Antigua is full of great rtrants and a bunch of medcre on, too but here are a few fantastic rtrants where you n also feel fortable beg yourself– Frida’s, Angie Angie, Cact Grill, Osteria Franc, Caoba Farms Café, Samsara, Rabow Café (don’t let the name fool you, this is not a gay tablishment but ’s a very chill, progrsive environment)Tattoo Shop: Superr Tattoos – Miguel owner, artistIf you would be terted a Week-Long (LGBT) Group Travel event wh Antigua, where we arrange everythg but your flight, please shoot an email at and we’ll keep you the loop!

Guatemala Cy self has a thrivg gay scene wh several bars and clubs, a few mixed but maly terg to the boys. E-mail: Telephone: 5466-8676 NiraguaNiragua has a long, strange history wh gay rights, bouncg back and forth between plete illegaly to plete legaly.

GAY ANTIGUA GUATEMALA TRAVEL GUI

Currently, Niragua do not have anti-gay laws on the books but is still not a totally acceptg untry and has a long way to go before gay marriage or regnn of our relatnships.

GranadaFilled wh expats, rtrants, happy hour specials and an unreal art scene, Granada is a pretty okay place to be gay.

Like Antigua, there is a thrivg gay muny, you jt have to fd . When we were Granada, we saw a gaggle of drag queens walkg down the street together followed by a band of gay boys – clearly off to a party. We also heard of a bar lled Mi Terra, that is not “gay” but where the gays we didn't fd a ton of bars, we did fd a ton of gay-owned or gay-iendly hotels, though we only stayed one of them ourselv.

GAY BAR GUATEMALA CY
