“Which direction should we walk?”

My friend and I had arrived at Mi Cayito beach in Cuba, a stretch of shoreline 15 miles east of Havana, in search of gay Cuba travel experiences. It looked as though the beach extended quite a distance in both directions, so we were unsure where to discover the gay section of beach that supposedly existed. The Internet hadn’t been much help in that regard.

Just then, a college-age guy with a sassy demeanor sauntered past with a female friend. We were evidently on the right track. “Follow him!”

Our hope that the dude would lead us to the gay beach were realized when, after five minutes of walking west, we spotted the rainbow flag.

Visiting Mi Cayito, The Gay Cuba Beach

On this weekday afternoon, the homosexual beach had maybe 100 people at most, but it was still incredible to see signs of gay life in Cuba, where acceptance is growing but still not nearly at the same level as in most western nations.

Cuba’s first LGBT hotel, “Gran Muthu Rainbow Hotel”, reopened in Cayo Guillermo, in the province of Ciego de Ávila (East), on November 15th. It had originally opened in December 2019, but had to be closed shortly thereafter due to the coronavirus pandemic. Knowledge is from the Exam.

According to the sales manager at the accommodation center, Marlis Delgado, the hotel’s existence represents “important steps towards the new family code”, which is being studied in Cuba.

Gay couples in Cuba marry under recent law

The code was approved after heavy campaigning by the Cuban government, and support by the most vocal advocate for queer rights on the island, Mariela Castro, the daughter of former president Raul Castro.

It made Cuba the ninth state in Latin America — following Chile, Costa Rica, Ecuador and Colombia — to legalize homosexual marriage in recent years.

Cuban elections — in which no party other than the Communist is allowed — routinely produce victory margins of more than 90% — as did a referendum on a major constitutional reform in 2019.

Despite that, a third of the country, 33.15%, voted “no.” The sms faced a immense campaign against it from evangelical groups that reject same-sex attracted marriage.

Meanwhile, 66.85% of the Cubans who came out, voted “yes.” Nearly 6% left blank or voided ballots.

The code also was rejected by some groups opposed to the government, which called for a “no” vote as a way of rejecting Cuban authorities amid rising discontent with the government of Miguel Díaz-Canel Bermúdez.

It was also opposed by some members of the LGBTQ community, which said they were abstaining to vote on something they considered to be a human right in

Cuba overwhelmingly approves same-sex marriage in referendum

Cubans have overwhelmingly approved a sweeping “family law” that would allow same-sex couples to wed and adopt, the electoral commission said, in a move that will also redefine rights for children and grandparents.

The 100-page “family code” legalises same-sex marriage and civil unions, allows same-sex couples to adopt children, and promotes identical sharing of domestic rights and responsibilities between men and women.

Preliminary results from the electoral commission showed 74 percent of 8.4 million Cubans eligible to vote participated in the Sunday referendum.
