New "social order crusade"
Since the recent
beginning of the enforcement of the existing
Thai laws and the Ministry of Interior's
New Social Order Campaign we are changing
the web site accordingly.
This web site contains a listing of many Gay venues and venues of special interest
to Gay visitors. Prostitution is illegal in Thailand and this web site does not
promote prostitution.
This site can however not take any responsibility if any of the listed venues
are involved in any form of illegal activities. Any parties that are concerned
are welcome to give us feed back information to webmaster@gaypatong.com in any
case of discrepancies to the Thai law and we will update the information immediately.
This web site promotes Gay tourism to Thailand
NOT sex tourism. Thailand is one of the
best countries in the world for Gay people
to travel to. It's safe, the people are
very friendly, the climate is fantastic,
the beaches on Phuket are amazing. The
Gay scene in Patong is more mature than
just a couple of years ago and you can
experience a wonderful hassle free holiday
on Phuket Island. Welcome to Thailand,
Phuket Island and Patong Beach. Links to
updates about the new social order campaig

Gay Day Tour
Join Connect's Gay Day Tour to Kai Island. This
is the only Gay tour in SE-Asia on a schedule all
year round every week since 1999. Going on this
tour might create your best holiday memories ever!
We are going every Saturday all year round.
Beach:
Despite there are 17 beautiful beaches there are
no real gay beach or nude beach here. Patong Beach
has a "gay area" just in front of the
beach rescue tower near to the tourist police and
Immigration office. You will recognize most of
the guys here from the Paradise Complex area.
Sauna:
Patong has 1 gay sauna in the gay area. Popular
late afternoon until early evening
"Thai style" gay venues:
Pub/Bar with hosts available to "off".
Be prepared to be sitting next to a host from the
bar asking you to pay for a drink (to start with).
Dance bar/music pub:
Music pubs with live music. No gay venues but several
mixed in Patong and Phuket town.
Disco:
There is one gay disco in Patong and 2 mixed.
Cabaret-/transvestite show:
There are several dedicated cabaret-/transvestite
shows in Patong. Some go-go bars have cabaret shows.
Sex show:
Sex shows are (under this present government) illegal
in Thailand.
Karaoke:
Great fun! The karaoke clubs listed here are very
popular among gays and they have songs from all
over the world. Pick you favorite and go for it!
After Beach:
Most of the gay venues open at the night-time. Connect is
however open from 8 in the morning and is popular
both with locals and the tourists. You can check
your Internet E-mail, have some light snacks and
a beer and chat with your friends. Connect restaurant
serve "all day" breakfast and have a
extensive menu with Thai and western food.
Massage:
For many westerners, massage is an infrequent indulgence.
In Asia massage is used for all sorts of therapeutic
need as well as for pure enjoyment. Only a few
massage places have male masseurs.
Cinema:
There are two cinema multiplex in Phuket Town.
Shows movies with
original soundtrack or dubbed to Thai. Check carefully
so you do not choose the wrong one.
Cruising:
If you are in Patong just go to Paradise Complex
or to the beach at late night. If you are really
into cruising go to Phuket town and visit the Suan
luang Park. Phuket town does not have any gay venue
(only mixed) so this is the place to meet. Many
locals go here. Some speak good English but not
all.
Saphan Hin area is not recommended for cruising.
As always in parks - Be careful.
AYOR (at your own risk)
Dining:
Patong has an uncountable number of restaurants.
Patong has a few "gay restaurants" and
several that are very popular among gays.
Night life in Patong:
There is no gay scene outside Patong Beach and
the gay scene in Patong has been rapidly transformed
over a couple of decades from one bar only, to
a vibrant modern gay scene. The anchor or nucleus
of the gay scene is the popular Boat Bar Disco
in Paradise Complex with a professional cabaret
show and an outdoor terrace bar, located in an
enclave of 30 gay venues in the "Paradise
Complex".
You can get the latest updates and the Gay Patong
Map from Connect Guesthouse, which is also the
early evening meeting point. The Paradise Complex
offers numerous pubs, a gay sauna, restaurants,
pool bars, and Internet cafes.
The biggest cabaret show is the Simon Cabaret but
it is perhaps more interesting for straight tourists
who want to have a look at the katoys (transvestites).
One other show worth mentioning is the Phuket Fantasea
Show (www.phuket-fantasea.com). It's a brand new
mix of Thai culture, a Las Vegas Show and a pinch
of Disney World all rolled into one.
