Best Gay Cruises and Gay Sailing Vacations

We love a sailing trip. Being pampered on board as you sail from glamorous destination to another is the way to go. One of our favorite sailing destinations is the Greek islands. You can even combine an Aegean cruise with a trip to Bodrum on Turkey’s Mediterranean coast on our gay singles cruise.

The Greek islands have so much to offer, from more tranquil islands like Naxos to the gay party island of gay party island of Mykonos, one of the most popular gay destinations. Cruising from island to island is the best way to discover the charms of the Cyclades: it’s an unbeatable destination for a Mediterranean cruise.

A Mediterranean cruise is always a good idea. Explore some of the best cities and towns of the Old World as you sail on a clipper yacht. A gay river cruise through the Netherlands and Germany is also a popular choice.

Supposing you’d like to go for something a little more adventurous, a luxury cruise into the Amazon jungle may be in order: you can explore one of the world’s most intricate ecosystems and even encounter tribes whose customs remain unchanged for many centuries. Naturally, we only work with the most gay-friendly cruise providers.

Luxury cruise lines such as Virgin or Seabourn are also sensible choices for those who like a luxury cruise. Whilst not exclusively gay cruises, they both offer excellent welcomes for LGBTQ+ clients on board. Other cruise lines that are particularly LGBTQ+ friendly are Celebrity Cruises, Norwegian and Cunard.

Luxury gay sailing trips

Sailing in the Maldives gives you a chance to explore multiple islands. Most Maldivian islands are so small they can only fit one resort. You’ll get to see many of the highlights of the Maldives in one trip if you opt for a gay cruise package.

A luxury cruise on board a floating spa is one of our preferred options for a Maldives cruise. As there’s no industry in the Maldives, the water is crystal clear. It’s a great destination for water sports and marine life, so you can keep active in between trips to the spa and the beach.

We have a diverse range of cruises available, including a number of gay group cruises, LGBTQ+ friendly cruises and gay cruises for singles. These include luxury trips on board world-class cruise ships and also more budget-friendly catamaran trips.

Joining a sailing trip of the Caribbean islands or even French Polynesia gives you a considerable advantage: it’s very tricky to organise such a sailing trip yourself and see so much in such a short space of time. Joining a gay friendly cruise means you just have to sit back and relax. All of the hard work has been done in advance by destination experts.
