As of last summer, there was only one gay bar in Cap d'Agde, Le Look. It's not bad at all. Actually, it was quite fun. We were there pretty much every night. It's located in Port Nature, in the arcade area where most of the bars are. It has a small indoor section and a large patio area, both covered and open-air. They feature the only always naked deejay in town. People were complaining a bit about his music selection, but I frankly had NOTHING to complain. Maybe because I live in the US where dance music is notoriuosly plain, boring, repetitive and uneventful (sorry guys, I'm an Italian guy who happens to live in the US. I love the US, but fact is, in Italy we are graced with some of the best dance clubs in the world). Problem is, there always seems to be a wider variety of styles and types of music in European clubs than in US clubs.
Anyways, I keep on referring to Le Look as a club... It's NOT really. It is a bar... But we always turned into a dance club anyways. By late evening pretty much everyone was dancing around the bar! Thanks to the deejay I discovered some cool French songs, such as Q.I. by Mylene Farmer (the remix, of course).
We're not much of drinkers, but their drinks were fine. The waiters were courteous, and the manager is a hunky tall German guy (who often wears trampoline heels, btw).
It's quite cold at night in Cap in August, so people would be wearing clothes. I know we were. There was one older, nice looking gentleman who would always show up naked. Brave guy :).
It was really too chilly for my Mediterranean blood.
Straight/bi couples would show up, too, and they seemed to be having a lot of fun. Not too much in terms of attitudes. I never cared for young "stars" (or anybody below 40, except for friendship, that is), but the guys seemed genuinely nice. We met a variety of people from all over the world.
I definitely look forward to going back to Le Look!
