Hi Gay Corkers! Is Kinsale gay-friendly? I am thinking about spending some time in County Cork (my favorite place in Ireland) and want to know if the residents are cool with gay folk. Thanks much! Tonustarts
Welcome, welcome! Kinsale seems to be quite progressive in that regards. If my memory serves me well a drag queen won the local beauty contest a few years ago
Well this is Ireland so you won't find anything like Sitges or Mykonos! But Kinsale has always tended to attract a lot of outsiders which presumably lends it a more cosmopolitan and open-minded air. You won't find it dripping in gay flags (thank God!) or be visibly 'gay' but it should be very laidback with a live-and-let-live vibe.
