Gay Bars
The first gay bar that was opened in Ao Nang was the Rainbow Bar.
It was forced to relocate to an unattractive place far from the beach.
The owner had to close the bar soon after the relocation. He hopes to open again later, after he has found a better place for the bar.
In January 2006 a new bar was opened at the old location of the Rainbow Bar: Male Bonding. It suffered from neglect by its owner. In January 2007
the staff of the bar took over (a management buy-out) under a new name:
69 Bar.
Since then it has become as popular as the old Rainbow Bar. The bar has been rebuilt completely.
It has even a small stage for an occasional show. The staff is enthousiastic and friendly. They are at their best when
they start dancing Thai Style.
The second gay bar is Choke Dee Bar in the entertainment soi opposite McDonald's. They have less staff available for off-ing. It has
a disadvantage of being surrounded by girlie bars. It offers little privacy.
Gay Accomodation
There is no need for gay accomodation in Ao Nang. The gay Baht is welcome in every hotel. You will notice that many of
the attendants in hotels and restaurants are gay themselves.
There is one gay hotel in Ao Nang: it is the low budget Ao Nang Pearl.
Gay Friends
Many gay boys walk around in Ao Nang, looking for gay friends. A lot of them originate from the North and Northeast of Thailand.
They came to the South to find a job in the tourist industry. They also moved here to escape from the social control of their
rural environment, hoping to pursue the gay lifestyle that is impossible in a small village with a lot of gossip.
They really like to meet foreigners. Some like to have a foreigner-friend, just for friendship. Some would like a LTR with a foreigner.
Some would like to do no more than showing you around and spend some time together just talking. You would have to ask them about their wishes.
