Cozumel, while reflecting traditional Catholic values, is evolving into a diverse and inclusive destination.
Embracing Diversity in Paradise: A Night at Pose, Cozumel's Trailblazing Gay Bar—Where Every Color of the Rainbow Glows Brighter. Cozumel, known for its crystal-clear waters and vibrant coral reefs, has made a powerful statement in embracing inclusivity with the opening of its first gay bar, Pose. It was such a surprise to find a gay bar on this tiny island in Mexico, of all places. It made me, as a queer person, feel suddenly seen and supported by a culture I only assumed was quite religious and conservative.
The pride flag being raised in Playa del Carmen for Playa Pride. Playa del Carmen makes a good base for exploring the area with its central location, the ferry to Cozumel and a short drives to nearby cenotes, Puerto Morelos, Akumal and Tulum. In Playa itself, there are more options than ever for nightlife and lots of places to stay including a small exclusively gay property Lote4 and lots of gay friendly options.
Playa del Carmen is also well known for music festivals, many of which have a enthusiastic LGBT following. If you're going to Cozumel, the ferry leaves right from the pier at the center of Playa.

There isn't really a consistent gay beach scene in Playa del Carmen anymore but the sandy stretch of Playa Mamitas a bit north of Mamitas Beach Club is a popular hang out zone as is the beach club itself. However there are very few people and the main reason people go here is to lay out naked or go into the bushes and try their luck. Be careful of security guards. The final option is the beach about 5 min walk south of the ferry pier to Cozumel in front of the private Playacar development.
There's a more local crowd here, also mixed. Average rating: 86 Very Good View on map. Jungle setting where you'll be close to nature and might see spider monkeys or exotic birds. Located 15 minutes from the small village of Puerto Morelos with its beautiful white sand beach. Hotel which is part of the gay friendly Marriot chain.
The Aloft is also a venue for an event in Playa del Carmen pride and is one of the sponsors. The hotel is centrally located close to all the restaurants and nightlife options. There is a rooftop pool, large gym, bars and restaurant. Hip luxury hotel part of the gay friendly Hilton chain. Close to all the action downtown.
