London has Soho, New York has Greenwich Village, Rio has Ipanema, San Francisco has, well , San Francisco and Cape Town has De Waterkant.
Recently voted as one of the top five gay travel
destinations in the world, Cape Town unfurls her rainbow flag with
as much pride and dignity that South Africa's fabulous new
constitution allows, stopping just short of inviting Barbra Streisand or
Gloria Gaynor to throw an elegant soiree at the Mount Nelson Hotel.
De Waterkant rolls out the red carpet and welcomes all lesbian, gay,
bisexual and transgender visitors and invites them to celebrate in South
Africa's fabulous freedom and equally fabulous gay night life. It's in De
Waterkant Village that the elusive Afro-hunk / babe is known to prowl the
streets and dance floors, often lurking behind a bar counter or grooving
under a mirror ball, so if Africa's Big Five have been spotted and it's the Big
Six you're after then this is the place to be trophy hunting!

Bars, restaurants, cafes, lounges and clubs are plentiful - there's Bronx, Sliver,
Confessions, Cruz Bar, Soho, The Village Cafe, Cafe Dutch, Rouge, Opium,
Bar Code, Pigalle, Andiamo, Tank and The Hot House for some steamy
lolly-licking bath house pleasures.

Cape Town also hosts an annual Pride Parade (end Feb / early March) through
the streets of central Cape Town and ends in De Waterkant with a wild
and wicked celebration that includes all the bars and clubs
and gay businesses in the area.


Then there's the annual Mother City Queer Project (MCQP) themed party
(early Dec) that celebrates queer culture. MCQP, in all its queer fabulousness,
has made it onto the international party circuit list and sees international
guests planning their summer holidays around MCQP.

For a slightly more cultural tinge of pink there's the annual Out in Africa Gay
and Lesbian Film Festival (end Feb early March) where cinemas in Cape Town,
Johannesburg and Durban screen the controversial, the arty, the docu-drama
and the hilariously camp movies from the international circuit.

Fun in the sun? Of course, and for that its Clifton 3 where beefy bronzed bodies
smothered in tropical tanning oils line the beach in a colourful array of swimmies,
bathers and skimpy trunks. And for more fun in more sun there's Sandy Bay
nudist beach where the skimpy trunks and inhibitions are left in the locker!
But be warned - the average temperature of the icy Atlantic waters
is around 14 degrees.
