Welcome to Gay Cape Town in the rainbow nation of South Africa! We kick off this video in the De Waterkant district where you’ll find many of the city’s best LGBTQ+ venues. We head over the rainbow crosswalk and follow the pink strip to the to find the best gay bars, restaurants and clubs in Cape Town. After a huge gay night out, we take you to the best gay beaches, including one gay nude option, and to the summit of the most popular gay hiking trail for truly breathtaking views. And be sure to stick around until the end of this video for our bonus adventure to wine country where we visit two of the most incredible wine estates in the country.

ABOUT US: We're Andy and Trai, a gay couple living in Mexico with our rescue jackhuahua, Pattie. After meeting in San Francisco and later moving to Chicago, we decided to quit our jobs in 2021, sell everything, and become two gay expats. Since then, we've been traveling the world and documenting our adventures on RU-vid and our travel blog. Our current home base is Tulum, Mexico-it's where we got married and decided to build a house. Subscribe for the next chapter in our story and our experience moving to Mexico. We hope our adventures inspire your travels and show you what places are really like if you are thinking about living, working, or retiring abroad.

Lifelong Capetonian here so I'm abut biased. But as a frequent traveler to other countries as a tourist, i will say that Cape Town is still one of the best cities to visit. And talk about value for money if you earn your salary in euros, dollars or pounds. On this gay guide, i would def also add Honey & Dora (another gay restaurant), Crew Bar (Disco) and Zero 21 (A drag bar / disco). For those with a naughty streak, try out Shaft (sauna / bath house). That said. Great and informative video. Just subscribed and look forward to watching your other videos to learn more about gay places in other countries.

@TwoGayExpats 9 дней назад

Thank you so much! Super helpful for our next trip and fellow subscribers 🌈 Honey and Dora was across from where we stayed. It’s super cute! Thanks again for sharing. We absolutely love CPT 🙌 ❤️

@alexwallace6120 6 месяцев назад

Thanks! Cape Town looks beautiful, LGBTQAI+ friendly. I bet the nude beach was fun, although a hike, reminding me of Black's Beach in San Diego. You showed nightlife and some decent restaurants. Yet no shopping. I have an acquaintance and Facebook friend, who lives there. I met him through my church.

@TwoGayExpats 6 месяцев назад

Thank you!! Any shopping highlights to mention from your friend? We travel light so typically don’t buy much!

Great video! However, I'm surprised you didn't go to Zer021, a more diverse gay club with many shades of people. A totally different experience of Cape Town’s night life. Do try it if you come again next time!❤

@TwoGayExpats 15 часов назад

Good to know! The reviews and location led us to skip it with so many amazing options within walking distance of our accommodations. We’ll have to give it a try next time. We love Cape Town and can’t wait to come back for hopefully 1-3 months next time! Thanks for sharing!! 🙏🌈❤️

You took the uphill hike from Sandy Bay? That’s a hectic 10 - 20 minute hike heading over to Hout Bay! We live in the houses at the top of that sand dune but would rather jump in the car and drive around to the other entrance on the Sandy Bay side which is waaaayy much easier! 😂😂😂😂PS: thanks for the great video!

Beautiful city as I recall from my visit there a number of years back. It’s curious that I didn’t observe any black or colored peoples at any of the venues you visited. Are there places they go as well?

@TwoGayExpats 3 месяца назад

Yes, gorgeous city! We found people from all counties and races at Pink Candy and at the beaches. Less so at some of the pricier venues as most likely cater mostly to foreigners. We met plenty of Europeans but less locals for sure. Hopefully, that will continue to change over time.

I spent a lot of time in Cape Town in the late 90s and early 200s. Always had a great time. But I understand the country is in serious trouble and crime is terrible now

@TwoGayExpats 6 месяцев назад

My (Trai) last trip was mid-2000s and it seemed way nicer and safer to me in De Waterkant! We find many US cities feel dangerous 😬

@keithss67 6 месяцев назад

@@TwoGayExpats oh I’m absolutely not comparing the two! Cities in the United States are absolutely falling apart post pandemic! It’s all a real disgrace, and unbelievably sad. I just saw on RU-vid that a restaurant in Oakland that I really liked, just closed because crime has gotten so bad that it’s scared away the customers. San Francisco looks like a ghost town. Last time I was in New York City, I had to walk around a junkie shooting up meth on the platform for the 2nd avenue subway. Strange times

@TwoGayExpats 6 месяцев назад

@TwoGayExpats 6 месяцев назад

Thank you so much! And we did see representation across the spectrum at Sandy Bay, the mostly gay nude beach. And at Manhattan Bar. But like many places, there’s always work to be done for equality within the community. Thanks again 🙏❤️🌍🏳️‍🌈

@aclem8246 6 месяцев назад

Instead of just checking out gay clubs, bars, and nude beaches for the young it would be nice to hear about any actual gay "community" that exists in different places if in fact there are any. There used to be gay community back before AIDs but now everything seems to be quick Grindr hook ups and over 40 and you are out as being gay now is really just a sexual preference for the young.

@TwoGayExpats 6 месяцев назад

Thanks for the feedback! If you go to the places we recommend like Manhattan or Beefcakes and speak to the performers or patrons, you will learn about the community. For example, Kitty de la Renza told us some amazing and inspiring stories about herself and gay Cape Town! Highly recommend.
