Can anyone give me some information on the clubs at night in Cap-d%26#39;Agde? Are single men admitted or is it generally couples only? Also, many people talk about %26quot;dressing for the evening%26quot;. What kind or dress is appropriate? Is it dress slacks and sport coats, t-shirts, shorts and sandles or something else? Thanks for any information.

After dark and around town , many of the ladies put a great deal of effort into their dress / fetish-wear . So , what do you think they expect from men ? You are free to dress or undress as you wish . However , if you do not have closed-toe shoes , slacks and shirt don%26#39;t be surprised by the negative reaction .
The five poor quality clubs will admit a lone man on payment of a premium entry fee , whilst the three best establishments usually do not in Summer .
I do not recommend that a lone , hetero%26#39; man visit here - they%26#39;re often disappointed .

Thanks but, your comments are pretty unencouraging. Is there a general negative attitude about single men visiting? I am planning a visit in July and want to know what to expect. Are you saying that the clubs I have reading about such as Glamour won%26#39;t admit me? I don%26#39;t have a problem dressing, I just couldn%26#39;t understand what the expectations were.

My comments were meant to be generally accurate , nothing more . There will always be exceptions , but if you%26#39;re a lone , hetero%26#39; male - and I%26#39;ve put you off - then thank me for saving you from what is likely to be an expensive disappointment .
As you were specific : in July , Le Glamour will not admit you .

Thousands of people go to Cap d’Agde at any one time, and they range from those pursuing ‘classic naturism’ to those interested in the extensive sexual activity (which includes us); the place is large enough to accommodate all types, and it is easy enough to avoid, or not even be aware of, the sexual side if you wish (despite what some people say).
All the nightclubs are intended for swingers. The best ones are restricted to couples, so if on your own you will be limited to other clubs which range from moderate to rather seedy. Most couples go to the couples only clubs, so at the other clubs you are likely to get some females but not many, and possibly none.
Clubs specify a dress code of trousers, proper shoes and shirt for men. The degree to which this is enforced varies, you will quite often have to comply to get into a club, but I have seen some men less dressed inside as well as also seeing men turned away if in shorts or sandals. You do not need jacket or anything really smart. Ladies, conversely, must not wear trousers, and most dress erotically and very skimpy.
In June and September there is plenty of ‘activity’ on the far part of the beach, but not in July or August when it is patrolled for most of the day, so July may not be the best time to go.
As part of a couple, it is difficult to envisage a holiday there as a single man. If you are happy just taking in the general atmosphere on the beach and in the evenings and relaxing in the nude, then there is no reason why you shouldn’t have a reasonable holiday and with occasional eroticism. But if you have preconceived ideas of seeing lots of action or even taking part, then you’re going to be disappointed and end up lonely amongst crowds of men with the same idea.

One other point. I think Le Glamour does accept single men. check their website for details http://www.leglamour.com/.

I aggree entirely with the first post (above) from Martin and Sally . However , be aware that , irrespective of any club%26#39;s website , the actual door-policy of all the best clubs changes with the number of patrons present , or expected . Today I spoke to the owner of Le Glamour and he confirmed that , during summer and all National holiday periods , his staff are instructed to exclude lone males .
I reiterate ; in July a lone man will be refused entry . Indeed , whilst queuing for entry or sitting at the adjacent outside bar (in July and August) , I%26#39;ve often seen lone men being turned away - ladies in trousers or non-sexy wear , also ! With masses of customers , they have no need to let single men in . Imagine a lone man trying to enter any of the better places during the period 11 to 15 July , when all will be bursting at the seams with couples .

Well, I almost wish i had never posted the question. Getting into the %26quot;best clubs%26quot; is not the most important of my ideas of a holiday at this resort. Thanks for checking %26quot;with the owner%26quot; of one of the clubs. I guess you wanted to make sure that they would never admit any single male. I could care less. I sense a bit of an undertone in a couple of these messages that is frankly surprising. I thought I asked a simple question and got some editorial responses. seems to me, that a village that accomodates 40,000 during busy periods would probably have some single males around. I guess that it ends up working out ok for most. why do I feel these posts are intended to be discouraging?

We go every year (we live in Spain and drive up with our caravan) just for the atmosphere, which is fantastic especially on the campsite, we are a couple, but we know alot of single guys who go every year too, so they must enjoy it. There are also some great pubs like Melrose where some of the women (and a few of the guys lol) will get up on stage and pole dance, there%26#39;s other pubs with live music too, it%26#39;s also very interesting just sitting having a drink outside and people watching. So I would say if you%26#39;re not just going for the clubs, you will probably enjoy it.

Marc, I am a single male traveler and have also been interested in a visit to Cap-d%26#39;Agde. I feel the same negative response from the couples here and many other resorts such as hedo in Jamaica. It%26#39;s seems like the male part of the couple are insecure and feel intimidated if any single men are around. Well, to be perfectly honest, I can enjoy myself without the need to share another man%26#39;s wife or partner. Don%26#39;t want it or be a part of their sick lifestyle. It%26#39;s like they think every single guy wants what they have got. But if you had a dog to swap with their dog, you would be more than welcome. Fact is, if their wife is into swapping together, she is probably giving it out to many other guys when he is not around. They may as well be a pimp and the wife a prostitute, the only difference between the two lifestyles is one is getting paid.
Halarious!
