SAWASDEE KHRAP!
Welcome!

There is something for every gay man in Thailand:
ancient and modern culture; beaches, islands and tropical seas; mountains and forests; shops selling everything from local crafts to international couture; sports from scuba-diving to golf; world-class cuisine - and don't forget Asia's friendliest and handsomest men...

Browse through this site for ideas of what to see and where to go, then contact us to arrange a package that's just right for you.

Check our Thailand section for an overview of gay life in the "Land of Smiles" and city pages for what's happening across the nation.
ASIAN FAERIES - JANUARY 2008
The fifth annual gathering of gay men from around the world on the idyllic island of Koh Yao Yai (near Phuket) takes place from 17 to 27 January 2008.

Faeries came out of groups formed in the 1970s to bring gay men together away from bars and nightclubs "to celebrate our distinctive and unique qualities and let our true selves be free. The faeries are an opportunity to create abundance from our many talents and gifts. The faeries are also an opportunity to create a true classless society where no one is identified by their wealth or lack thereof and where no one has power or authority over one another."

More information here. Contact Kinnara for options getting to and from Phuket.

MEN IN MIND
We have to be honest - this couple were at the Men in Mind, Secret Party at Hiranyikara Spa in Phuket last month, but we don't know if they're members of staff. Hiranyikara is a new spa with a wide range of services offered to the gay market. Choose a male or female therapist to offer Traditional Siamese Massage, Aromatic Massage, Muscle Melt (don't ask, we don't know) and other forms of therapy in an atmosphere of tranquility and relaxation. more...
HEAD FOR THE HILLS
We find there's so much to do in Phuket that we never want to come home. And if you need somewhere to stay, Kinnara has the best deals. Choose peace and quiet at CC Blooms or the heart of the action in Aquarius and Connect, boutique elegance in Club One Seven or the newest addition, Lanna Thai. Or go way upmarket with the Burasari, Banyan Tree, Le Meridien. Check out the options here.

dive in at CC Blooms...
FAR, FAR AWAY
You wouldn't visit Mae Hong Son for its gay life. This remote north-western province nestling against the Burmese border has few inhabitants and fewer tourists.

What it does have is beautiful scenery, small quiet towns and a chance to get away from it all. If you want some exercise, go trekking, visit a hilltribe village or explore one of the many cave systems in the province.

While there, we recommend you spend a night or two in The Quarter, the new gay-friendly boutique hotel in Pai. Published rates begin at 3,500 THB a night; Kinnara rates begin at 2,800 THB.

FIGHT BACK
Ever watched a muay thai fight? Thai kickboxing is a faster sport than Western boxing, equally thrill-laden, both in and around the ring, and steeped in tradition.

Fighters perform an elaborate prayer in the ring before the bout begins, wearing a traditional headdress and garland. They approach each other with respect and fight hard. If a knockout occurs, the winning fighter seeks forgiveness from both his opponent and his trainer.


ouch!
A new muay thai stadium has opened in Bangkok. Ringside seats are 1,500 baht on the door and 1,100 baht through Kinnara. more information
