California will always be one of our favourite US destinations. It’s LGBTQ+ friendly, incredibly diverse, and offers so much natural beauty. Rugged coastlines, quiet beaches, amazing national parks, and so much more, we can never get enough of our favourite state. We’ve been making an annual trip down to California to escape our Canadian winters, and every year we manage to discover something new. From big cities like San Francisco, LA, and San Diego, to unique regions like Big Sur and Joshua Tree National Park, we are never disappointed.
We’re always impressed by how lesbian friendly most California destinations are, and how many thriving gaybourhoods there are almost everywhere we go. We always feel safe and welcomed in a state that protects LGBTQ+ people by law, and has always been a leader in the equality movement. If you’re looking for an inclusive destination in the US, there are so many amazing places to discover in California. Whether you are looking for cosmopolitan city vibes, a laid back beach vacation, an adventure in the mountains or the desert, or a little bit of everything, you will find it here!
