Sarasota Gay BeachNorth Lido was once famous for its acceptance of nude sunbathers, but this is no longer the case. However, the quiet, northern reaches of the key are popular with the gay community. In fact, some have referred to North Lido Beach as "a unique homo-haven on the sand."
There are quite a few dunes covered with sea oats and other beach vegetation that provide cover for those wishing to remain discreet. When you visit the gay beach don't forget to check-in on facebook and use #sarasotaOUT |
