Parc de la Roseraie

The Parc de la Roseraie area in northern Nantes is listed in French directories as a lieu de drague. It appears here for that history, not as a recommendation. Same-sex relations are fully legal in France, but exhibition sexuelle in a public place is a criminal offence and parks close at night, when police patrol. GayOut does not publish meeting points, times or directions for outdoor spots. The safer ways to meet men in Nantes are the bars, saunas and cruising clubs listed on this page, and the apps. Go with the same caution you would use in any park at night: tell someone where you are, keep your phone charged and valuables at home, and leave the way you came.
