7 LGBTQ+ Getaways
Explore these diverse LGBTQ+ communities in California
As one of the most progressive states in the nation and home to an LGBTQ+ population north of two million, California is a top queer-friendly destination. No matter what you’re looking for—whether it’s a romantic farm-to-table dinner at a celebrated restaurant, glamping in the midst of California’s world-famous scenery, or a raging pool party in the desert—the Golden State can deliver the perfect experience.
Read on to learn more about seven ideal destinations for an LGBTQ+ getaway, listed from north to south.
1. Guerneville
Discover a more rustic side of Northern California’s LGBTQ+ scene in Guerneville, a tucked-away hamlet set among majestic redwood forests about 90 minutes north of San Francisco. For pinch-me-perfect romantic settings to enjoy with any partner, book a stay at the Mission Revival–style The Stavrand, or the chic Boon Hotel + Spa. For a truly easygoing stay, Highlands Resort offers a wide array of homey cabins and suites and promotes an “unplugged” approach to relaxation. At night, catch the action at the landmark Rainbow Cattle Co., a party destination since 1979, or the Bar at the R3 Hotel, another longtime favorite of the LGBTQ+ crowd.

2. San Francisco
The City by the Bay is one of the most LGBTQ+-friendly cities in the world, with dozens of gay-friendly businesses sprinkled citywide. Learn more about the history of the gay movement at the GLBT History Museum, or on a guided “Cruisin’ the Castro” historical walking tour. June is Pride Month, which culminates on the last weekend when up to a million visitors flock to the city for the annual (and outrageous) San Francisco Pride celebration. If you are new to the city’s gay scene, Twin Peaks Tavern is a legendary haunt, and The Parker Guest House, Joie de Vivre Hotels (Hotel Kabuki and The Laurel Inn), and the W are just a few of the city’s gay-friendly hotels.

3. San Luis Obispo
San Luis Obispo County does not lag behind its neighbors to the north and south when it comes to welcoming the LGBTQ+ community. White Water and Cambria Beach Lodge in Cambria, San Luis Creek Lodge in San Luis Obispo, and (for those in search of a particularly rosy experience) the Madonna Inn, also in San Luis Obispo, are all ideal spots for a getaway. Both cities also have their share of can’t-miss restaurants that often serve up more than just delicious meals, including Luna Red and Novo Restaurant (where you’ll find a live DJ and dancing on weekends) in San Luis Obispo and Robin’s Restaurant in Cambria, which offers year-round live music. For a shopping adventure, visit Junk Girls, where nostalgic ephemera and vintage objects are repurposed into pieces of art and home decor in SLO.
4. West Hollywood
As the center of LGBTQ+ Los Angeles, it goes without saying that West Hollywood has excellent restaurants, hotels, and shopping on every corner. As for nightlife, consider The Abbey, one of the most famous gay bars and nightclubs in the world. Or, turn up the volume at the aptly named Girl Bar, if you’re looking for a glamorous, high-energy dance night out. Round out the weekend with drag queen bingo nights held every Sunday at Hamburger Mary’s. In late May, the One City One Pride festival sponsors free events around the city, and come June, West Hollywood becomes the home base for the L.A. Pride Festival and Parade.

5. Laguna Beach
A historic arts colony with a long-established gay community, Laguna Beach is Orange County’s leading LGBTQ+ city. Stay in such gay-friendly spots as the Surf and Sand Resort, a spectacular oceanfront luxury hotel that’s also home to the intimate Aquaterra Spa. Swim and surf in secluded coves and sunny beaches (including such gay-popular stretches as West Beach and Mountain Road Beach), then take in some art at the Laguna Art Museum and Laguna’s numerous galleries. At night, catch performances at the acclaimed Laguna Playhouse, then see bands and hang with the locals at the Marine Room Tavern, which has been in business since 1934 and is especially lively during Laguna’s busy summer months. (More: Laguna Beach for LGBTQ+ Travel)
6. The Deserts
There’s no question that the Palm Springs area ranks as one of the world’s top destinations for LGBTQ+ travelers. Many LGBTQ+ Pride events take place in November here, instead of the traditional June; the Greater Palm Springs Pride event kicks off the season early in the fall month with an eye-popping parade and block party. Other events include the Desert Hot Springs Pride Festival in mid-November, LGBTQ Days in March, and the Dinah Shore Weekend/Palm Springs Women’s Weekend in early April; “The Dinah” is considered the world’s largest lesbian happening. A few weeks later, it’s the guys’ turn, and time for the Palm Springs White Party, the area’s biggest annual gay event. (More: LGBTQ+ Travel in the Deserts)
7. San Diego
Blessed with sunny beaches and plenty of cultural attractions, San Diego is an appealing destination for LGBTQ+ travelers. Hillcrest, a retro-hip enclave located northwest of Balboa Park, is the city’s unquestioned LGBTQ+ hub. Dig into classic American comfort foods at Gossip Grill, then dance the night away at The Rail, San Diego’s oldest gay bar. The neighborhood is also home to Hillcrest Brewing Company, a proudly gay brewery and restaurant—some say the nation’s first—and is near Balboa Park’s San Diego LGBTQ Pride Parade and Festival, a three-day celebration in July that draws 300,000 people. For more suggestions on where to stay, check out San Diego Travel’s guide to LGBTQ+ Friendly Lodging. (More: San Diego LGBTQ+ Getaways)

6 Top Family-Friendly Things to Do in Orange County
Along the Southern California coast, Orange County beckons with 42 miles of sandy shores and renowned theme parks. When it comes to planning what to do in Orange County on your next family vacation, Disneyland Resort is the obvious choice—but there’s even more to explore beyond the Happiest Place on Earth. This family-friendly region is home to multiple beach towns that each boast their own brand of breezy charm, where children and adults alike can enjoy the laid-back surf culture of Huntington Beach or explore the hiking trails of Newport Beach. To make the most of year-round sunshine and diverse landscapes, here’s a guide to the top kid-centric activities in Orange County.
Crystal Cove State Park, Newport Coast, and Laguna Beach
Why It’s a Fun Thing for Families to Do: Crystal Cove is a wholesome beach destination frozen in time with diverse terrain ripe for exploration, from wooded canyons to sandy beaches.
Be Prepared For: If you park at the Los Trancos lot off Coast Highway to access the historic district, it’s a somewhat steep walk to get down to the water; with kids in tow, you may want to take the shuttle ($1.50 per passenger). For direct access to the beach or hiking trails, consider parking at one of the El Moro Canyon lots.
In one day, families can go from exploring the backcountry to splashing by the shore. That’s the magic of Crystal Cove State Park, nestled between Corona del Mar and Laguna Beach along the Orange County coast. There are 18 miles of hiking trails through native wilderness, including easy out-and-back walks like Moro Canyon, a kid-friendly three-mile loop on a dirt path with ocean views. On the beach side, four tide-pool areas reveal an underwater world filled with creatures including sea urchins and red-thatched barnacles. A visit to the historic district is a must if you go to the Rocky Bight tide pools at the south end of Crystal Cove. Kids can have an old-fashioned beach day, digging their toes in the sand while lingering over the last few slurps of a classic date shake from the Crystal Cove Shake Shack. Adding to the scenery are restored historic beach cottages that dot the shoreline; while most are overnight rentals, others house a gift shop, educational exhibits, and a restaurant. After a waterfront dinner at The Beachcomber, end your day by renting a fire pit to enjoy roasted marshmallows and s’mores on the sand—a quintessential kid-friendly activity in Orange County.

Balboa Peninsula and Balboa Island, Newport Beach
Why It’s a Fun Thing for Families to Do: Located along the largest recreational harbor on the West Coast, the man-made island and three-mile stretch known as Balboa Peninsula offer kid-friendly activities in Orange County ranging from classic boardwalk attractions to on-the-water adventures.
Be Prepared For: Parking in this area of Newport Beach can be hard to find—grab a spot on the peninsula side by Balboa Pier.
Balboa Fun Zone is a hidden gem of Orange County. The colorful Ferris wheel, dating back to 1936, is a beacon of Newport Harbor, surrounded by old-time arcade games and boardwalk attractions like a giant trampoline. Take the Balboa Island Ferry across the harbor to find Balboa Bars and frozen bananas, a treat that fans of the TV show Arrested Development might find familiar. After your island detour, you can grab a bite on the peninsula at the family-friendly Ruby’s Diner at Balboa Pier or charter an electric boat for an on-the-water picnic. Whale-watching cruises also depart from the Fun Zone, taking families out to open water to see dolphins, humpbacks, and other species depending on the season.

Surf City USA, Huntington Beach
Why It’s a Fun Thing for Families to Do: Downtown Huntington Beach is the heart of the city, in close proximity to the pier, water sports, restaurants, and family-friendly hotels.
Be Prepared For: Events like the U.S. Open of Surfing and Pacific Air Show draw big crowds and can create restricted access to certain beach areas. Plan your aquatic activities accordingly so little ones aren’t disappointed.
Catching a wave isn’t the only way to spend an action-packed weekend in the SoCal beach town dubbed Surf City USA—though it’s certainly easy for kids of all skill levels to learn from one of the expert instructors along the 10-mile stretch of coast. For tamer waters perfect for kayaking, head to Huntington Harbour on the north side of town where it’s easy to find walk-up rentals by the hour. If you prefer to explore on foot, stay downtown to shop local surf wear boutiques and see memorabilia and art at the Huntington Beach International Surfing Museum, which also hosts Sunday concerts near the pier. Dine at kid-friendly restaurants like Sandy’s Beach Shack and Duke’s, or cruise up the street to Pacific City for more upscale eateries and the Lot 579 food hall.

Orange County Great Park, Irvine
Why It’s a Fun Thing for Families to Do: Orange County Great Park is a hub for family fun—think museums, play spaces, attractions, and even a water park. It’s also close to popular shopping, dining, and entertainment hot spots.
Be Prepared For: There are multiple entry points for the Great Park. While this means there’s plenty of parking, be sure to choose a lot central to the attractions you’re planning to visit and bring a stroller or wagon for smaller kids.
When you’re planning what to do in Orange County Great Park, start with a ride on the iconic orange balloon. You’ll soar 400 feet above the park, giving you aerial views of the many kids’ play areas, vintage carousel, and aircraft hangar that houses the Palm Court Art Complex and aviation exhibit. Children can participate in free art and seeding workshops at the Farm + Food Lab or lace up a pair of skates at Great Park Ice, where the Anaheim Ducks and Olympic champions like Nathan Chen train for competition. In the summer, Wild Rivers is a popular attraction for kids in Orange County, offering wave pools, family raft rides, slides, and splash zones for younger swimmers. What’s for dinner? Head to the nearby Irvine Spectrum Center for an array of family-friendly restaurants and sweet treats from spots such as the Hello Kitty Grand Cafe. Post-meal, let older kids pull off an art heist or break out from prison at The Escape Game, which has six different escape-room experiences.
There are dozens more kid-friendly activities in Orange County, from the Discovery Cube in Santa Ana down to Doheny State Beach in Dana Point. And if the miles of local beaches, art exhibitions, themed attractions, thrill rides, and outdoor excursions aren’t enough, San Diego and Los Angeles are just a short day-trip away. So whether you’re planning your vacation around a weekend at Disneyland or it’s a stop on a scenic California road trip, the Golden State is a must-visit destination where travelers of all ages will find something to love.
Irvine Regional Park, Orange
Why It’s a Fun Thing for Families to Do: From wildlife sightings to paddle boat excursions, Irvine Regional Park is filled with family-friendly things to do in Orange County.
Be Prepared For: While there are plenty of trees offering a shady spot to relax, as well as covered restroom facilities, remember that the park is all outdoors. Pack lots of sunscreen, hats, and water for your visit.
A trip to this sprawling open space in the foothills of Orange won’t be your average day at the park. For a $3 parking fee ($5 on weekends), you get access to nearly 500 acres filled with wildlife, trails, and attractions such as the Irvine Park Railroad, a 10-minute conductor-led tour that circles the park’s two lakes and wooded groves. Younger kids can take a pony ride at the corral next to the train station, but teens up for a challenge may enjoy a guided horseback tour along the park’s three-mile equestrian trail. Visitors can also rent paddle boats to cruise around on the water or double surreys to explore by road. Admire roaming peacocks from afar while making your way up to the Orange County Zoo, home to animals such as black bears, mountain lions, a bald eagle, and great horned owls. There’s a concession stand at the park, but your best bet is to pack lunch to enjoy at one of the many picnic tables under the shade of oak and sycamore trees.

Disneyland Resort, Anaheim
Why It’s a Fun Thing for Families to Do: Disneyland’s two theme parks and entertainment district means families can enjoy multiple kid-friendly activities in Orange County without ever getting in the car.
Be Prepared For: Spring break, summer, and the holiday season are some of the busiest times of year at the parks. January through March is a great time to visit with younger kids, as you’ll typically find lower ticket prices and shorter lines.
Roller coasters, themed treats, and animated characters brought to life—there’s a reason Disneyland Resort is one of the most popular family attractions in the country. Little ones will love Fantasyland at Disneyland Park, where they can take flight with the likes of Peter Pan and Dumbo, then relax for some storytelling time at the Royal Theatre. Don’t miss Mickey and Minnie’s Runaway Railway in Toontown before hopping over to Disney California Adventure Park. Your superhero-loving kids can get lost in the Marvel Universe at the Avengers Campus, which has family-friendly attractions like Web Slingers: A Spider-Man Adventure and Dr. Strange’s Ancient Sanctum show. Pixar fans can cruise with Lightning McQueen in Cars Land or experience an Inside Out whirlwind of emotion on Pixar Pier. Though you can easily spend days exploring the parks, the Downtown Disney District has plenty of shops, sit-down restaurants, and a bowling alley if you need some downtime between rides. For early entry to the parks before they open to the public, stay at a Disneyland Resort property in Anaheim such as the Grand Californian Hotel & Spa, which has an entrance with direct access to Disney California Adventure Park.
Knott’s Berry Farm, Buena Park
Why It’s a Fun Thing for Families to Do: The Peanuts-themed Camp Snoopy land inside the park offers an opportunity for kids to experience theme park thrills on their own.
Be Prepared For: Knott’s Berry Farm has several roller coasters and thrill rides that have a minimum height requirement. Those with tinier visitors in tow can still enjoy the park’s many stage shows, character meet-and-greets, and kid-friendly attractions.
Whether your kids prefer the Peanuts gang or the Wild West, Knott’s Berry Farm is a treasure trove of pint-sized adventures in Buena Park. In Camp Snoopy, younger kids can go solo on many attractions like Woodstock’s Airmail, the Camp Bus, or Charlie Brown’s Kite Flyer if they meet the minimum height requirement (36 inches for the majority of rides). They can also experience their first roller coaster thrills on the Timberline Twister. Over in Ghost Town, the whole family can pan for gold, watch a blacksmith forge metal, or walk through the Western Trails Museum. Every visit should include a slow-paced, winding journey aboard the Calico Mine Ride, a dark ride that takes passengers on a trip back in time to the California Gold Rush. Take advantage of longer summer days with an afternoon at Knott’s Soak City Waterpark, open seasonally from May through September. Though you may want to sample the famous fried chicken and boysenberry pie at Mrs. Knott’s Chicken Dinner Restaurant, there are also immersive dining experiences just down the street. Cheer on the knights at Medieval Times while feasting on the castle’s finest cuisine with your hands, or go on a high-seas excursion at Pirates Dinner Adventure, a live theater show set aboard an 18th-century Spanish galleon
NORTHERN CALIFORNIA’S HALF MOON BAY
Things to Do in Half Moon Bay
You’ll definitely want to spend as much time as possible by the Pacific, and several miles of the border-to-border California Coastal Trail run through Half Moon Bay. One particularly nice section begins at Poplar Beach and travels down the coast above the waves. Just north of town at Moss Beach, the Fitzgerald Marine Reserve is a great place to see harbor seals and explore tide pools—look for purple sea urchins and sea stars in the craggy rocks.
As for Mavericks—the breaks that Half Moon Bay is known for the world over—only the most skilled surfers should consider tackling the challenging waves that can reach heights of 50 feet or more. But you can get a taste of the local surf scene (and pick up cool hoodies to impress your inland pals) at Mavericks Surf Company, owned by Jeff Clark, a big-wave legend. For something a little more sedate, the company’s Mavericks PaddleSports offers stand-up paddleboard rentals and lessons on the flat waters of Pillar Point Harbor.
If you prefer to keep your feet on dry land and have kids in your posse, visit the farm-themed amusement park Lemos Farm for family-friendly fun. Pony rides, hay rides, train rides and a petting zoo are all on the activity list here, along with goat yoga, for those into pursuing wellness with furry friends. Though open year-round, October is a particularly good time to visit, with celebrations that feature live music, Halloween-themed festivities, and lots and lots of pumpkins.
Where to Eat and Drink in Half Moon Bay
The dining here is steeped in tradition: Sam’s Chowder House is famous for its lobster roll sandwiches and cioppino, as well as views that look out over the harbor and to Pillar Point. With its neon fish sign outside and nets dangling from the ceiling, funky Barbara’s Fishtrap sits along the harbor and has drawn big crowds since 1971, thanks in part to some of the best fish and chips anywhere in California. There’s also great eating (and shopping) on Half Moon Bay’s historic Main Street: Pasta Moon sources from area farms and fishermen for its spaghetti puttanesca, which features day-boat sea scallops, clams, and mussels. If your thoughts run more toward imbibing, Half Moon Bay Brewing Company has been serving the community with local handcrafted beers since 2000, and two distilleries—Jettywave Distillery and Half Moon Bay Distillery, both woman-owned—have been receiving accolades for their lines of small-batch spirits. Half Moon Bay Distillery offers private in-store tastings; Jettywave’s pet-friendly garden, The Swell Lounge, serves up cocktails as well as food.
Where to Stay in Half Moon Bay
A few of Half Moon Bay’s standout lodging options include the Inn at Mavericks, a dog-friendly inn overlooking the Pacific, within walking distance to restaurants, shopping, and the ocean. If you’re looking for some ultra-luxe pampering after a day exploring the coast, the grand Ritz-Carlton, Half Moon Bay commands a bluff overlooking the ocean. Its spa features treatments inspired by the area’s natural setting—it’s an ideal spot for some rejuvenation.
13 CALIFORNIA WINERIES OFFERING NEXT-LEVEL EPICUREAN EXPERIENCES

Domaine Carneros, Napa
Sparkling wine is a great match for just about everything, and the Bubbles & Bites tasting at Domaine Carneros provides delicious proof.

Acquiesce Winery & Vineyards, Acampo

Led by a resident wine guide, the tasting highlights Justin’s winemaking practices while pairing the latest vintages with dishes from the seasonal á la carte lunch menu.
Le Cuvier Winery, Paso Robles
The gorgeous hilltop location at Le Cuvier Winery in Paso Robles is almost reason enough to opt for the Entrée & Flight Experience, but the food and wine ultimately steal the show.

Presqu’ile, Santa Maria
