LGBT+ Travel

Welcome to Greater Fort Lauderdale — Florida’s LGBT+ capital and one of the most progressive destinations in the United States. TravelPulse recently named Greater Fort Lauderdale as one of the Top 4 places for LGBT+ travelers post-COVID.

HRC logo We celebrate diversity and inclusion in every way, each day, where Pride is the daily way of life. We are especially proud that Fort Lauderdale earned a perfect score on the Human Rights Campaign's (HRC) Municipal Equality Index. We embrace every segment of the LGBT+ community to make everyone feel welcome, comfortable and safe.

Greater Fort Lauderdale is home to 31 municipalities and is renowned for its welcoming, authentic vibe. Here you’ll find a thriving local LGBT+ community with the highest concentration of same-sex couple households in the country and hundreds of gay-owned businesses, many of which are centered around the Wilton Manors neighborhood. Sebastian Beach, the top-rated gay beach in the United States, is nestled in Fort Lauderdale beach.

With a vibrant collection of cultures and activities, Greater Fort Lauderdale is the ultimate, inclusive LGBT+ destination where everyone comes together, under the warm embrace of the sun. You are welcome to fly your flag high, make an impact and radiate life – because you are you, and you are worth celebrating. LET'S CELEBRATE YOU!
