LGBT Scene in Curacao

There is no gay neighborhood and only one gay bar on the island - Lyric’s - but Curacao seems to pride itself on being welcoming and inclusive. Curacao has opened its arms to the LGBT community, with even its tourism board proudly proclaiming, “Being gay isn’t a weekend hobby, so feel free to visit any restaurant or bar anytime.” This is a live-and-let-live kind of place so even without a gay scene Curacao is more than fullfilling. Curacao has 17 organizations in the International Gay & Lesbian Travel Association, possibly the most in the Caribbean.
