Spain is one of the most open countries in the world for the LGTBQ+ community, and it shows in neighbourhoods with real character and destinations where you can feel at home.
The big cities
- Chueca (Madrid): the historic heart of the scene, full of shops, culture and a strong local community.
- Gaixample / Eixample (Barcelona): a central, cosmopolitan and well-established area.
- Ruzafa (Valencia): the trendy neighbourhood, creative and diverse, with more accessible prices.
The coast and the south
- Torremolinos and La Carihuela (Costa del Sol): sun, beach and an open atmosphere all year round.
- Sitges: an iconic, welcoming coastal town next to Barcelona.
The islands
- Maspalomas and the Yumbo (Gran Canaria): an international benchmark for LGTBQ+ tourism.
- Ibiza: legendary freedom and nightlife.
- Costa Adeje (Tenerife): year-round sun and a settled community of residents.
Each neighbourhood links back to its region: the cities for daily life, the coast for the climate and the islands for living year-round.
