KINGS BEACH, NSW, AUSTRALIA

Nestled in the aptly-named Rainbow Region of tropical northern New South Wales, Kings is a beach boy fantasy – a secluded tropical paradise with lush green shade, perfect waters, plenty of men and an atmosphere so romantic that gay weddings sometimes happen here. Just south of tourist hotspot Byron Bay, Kings is a secluded seaside enclave at the foot of an 800 metre jungle trail and in summer you’ll encounter men in the nude flying kites, playing beach cricket, reading under a tree, or strolling hand in hand along the seashore.
