Salvador is considered one of the major GLS destinations in Brazil. The destination offers freedom and respect for diversity in democratic environments, nightlife, art and culture as well as places dedicated to this community.
Government institutions have been working on several actions aimed at this segment, especially in regards to the implementation of training programs to provide services to the GLS community.
Both the city of Salvador as the North Coast have gayfriendly tours and services such as lodging facilities, restaurants, bars, saunas, beaches, parks and streets. More information can be obtained from the GGB - Grupo Gay da Bahia (www.ggb.org.br).
