Piazzale
del Galoppatoio
Located
near the top of via Veneto (near the American Embassy). Beware of Police
Checks. Busy at night time with local guys of all ages. Guys will park
their cars across the street while they cruise. |

Monte
Caprino
Walking
from Piazza Venezia past the Roman Capital Building, take your first right
up the winding road overlooking the Forum. Walk for approximately 2 kilometers.
This area gets busy late at night especially by the terraced gardens along
the hill overlooking the ruins. |

Colosseo
Quadrato
The
Colosseo Quadrato, by the Metro Magliana is busy by the gardens near Bar
Palomini, especially in the evening and it can get quite crowded. |

Il
Buco Beach
The
flight from the inevitable Roman summer heat in the city beings in June.
We recommend a day trip to the less well-known Spiaggia Il Buco gay beach.
From the heart of the city it is about a one hour journey on public transit
and makes a fun picnic day away from the historic ruins and a chance to
catch some eye-candy as the local gays and lesbians enjoy their piece of
paradise on the Tyrrhenian Sea. There is a stretch of nude beach which
is mostly populated by the gay community. And of course there are plenty
of places to escape the sun and enjoy a cool beverage plus some local pasta
specialties or real Italian thin crust pizza. Getting there is slightly
complicated but if you take the Metro B (blue) line train from the Termini
Station to Piramide and then change to the Metro destined for Ostia and
get off at Cristoforo Colombio, then take the number seven bus to Capocotta,
you will easily find the beach using your gaydar---or by asking a local
resident. |
