One of Spain´s oldest gay beaches gets its Rainbow Flag


Poseidon beach in Torremolinos, Spain is one of the pioneers of gay movement in Spain. Dating back to the 60´s it was an oase of freedom and tolerance even in Franco´s Spain.
One strange thing: in its almost half of century gay history the beach never waived a gay flag.
Things changed this month: starting from 12 of August 2009 Poseidon Gay Beach Torremolinos is proudly represented with a rainbow flag! The initiative is an effort of El Gato Lounge - one of Torremolinos most popular gay venues.
Such a little gesture and yet a great emblematic recognition to Poseidon Torremolinos as one of Spain´s most popular gay beaches.
