Gay nightlife tel aviv

We stayed several nights at both the Royal Beach and Melody and both were nice properties. At a minimum, you should at least visit their outdoor bar and rooftop terrace to hang with a fashionable crowd while sipping top-notch cocktails. Address: Independence Park, Tel Aviv, 63405

Mid-Range

Melody Hotel – just across from the Hilton and minutes walking to the gay beach.

Saraya is open every Thursday and Friday night from 10pm to 6am and is a great place to wind down and relax after a night of partying.

Dreck:

Tourists visiting Israel for the first time should be aware that the Israeli weekend begins on Thursday evenings with Israelis heading back to work on Sunday mornings. We traveled with them all over Israel and highly recommend them!

Haifa – you can head north to Haifa to visit the Baha’i Temple Gardens with 19 stunning terraces built alongside Mount Carmel. HaOman 17 hosts plenty of other legendary parties including PAG for techno-lovers (queer-minded straight folks welcome), ARISA for Middle Eastern music, BEEF for bears, daddies, and leather-lovers, TLV Ballroom for high-brow queer culture enthusiasts, and JIZZ for those who want something a bit more hardcore and hands-on.

It’s not uncommon to catch RuPaul’s Drag Race winners and legends enjoying a few drinks at Layla after performing a show in Tel Aviv.

Shpagat:

Perhaps the most iconic gay bar in all of Israel, Shpagat has made a name for itself as one the epicenters of Tel Aviv’s queer community. Browse the offerings and enjoy a freshly made falafel or sabich for lunch and later buy yourself a cool and freshly squeezed orange or pomegranate juice from one of the many street vendors.

Rothschild Boulevard – When you’ve had enough sun for the day head up to Rothschild Boulevard to relax at a cafe.
