Hi! I’m Dallas Knoxxx, your go-to-gay for all things wild and straight-up real. I’m 27, reside in West Hollywood, and get to live out my sexual fantasies every day. I’ve starred in a studio scene (go check it out) and have an OnlyFans (I’m also on Twitter!) I’m constantly posting and spending nights cruising and hooking up in the city of angels.
By day, I write about my adventures, sex life, and how to navigate the glitz and glam of Los Angeles – one story at a time. Join me on this crazy journey! Today, I’m going to give you all the details about the gay cruising style of things in the streets of LA.
Why Gay Cruise in Los Angeles?
If you’re new here and live under a rock, cruising is the act of hooking up with another consenting individual and railing each other in a public place that doesn’t usually define itself as a sex spot. Some may call this a kink, but I consider this to be a regular Friday night for me.
Tons of risks come along with gay cruising, but I imagine that’s why you’re cruising: the risk, the rush, and the reward. It’s hot to know you could be caught sucking cock, or when you hear someone coming, the rush of pulling up your shorts and playing it cool. In the words of Paris and me: “That’s hot!”
Is there gay cruising etiquette to keep in mind when playing around town?
There is a lot of cruising etiquette you need to follow if you want to play along, and it applies differently no matter where you are, so let me help you. I don’t want to call myself a pro, but I’ve been around the block a couple of times, so I know all the things to avoid and all the things to chase—but let me know if I missed anything!
What are the cruising rules when looking to fuck at the local gym sauna near you?
If you’ve been to a public gym, you’ve probably had the chance to try out its superb amenities – the heated pool, fresh smoothie bar, and, of course, the steamy sauna. If you haven’t had a hard gym cock in your mouth down at your local gym, run, don’t walk. You must cruise your local gym if you haven’t done so yet!
Now, cruising your gym for the first time can be very nerve-wracking… unlike a sauna at a local bathhouse where everyone is there for the obvious, there are little to no signals at a regular gym, so how do you know who’s playing and who’s not?
Most people come to the gym just to use the equipment and rest their muscles with steam, so they aren’t looking for anything more than a pumped-up chest and gorgeous endorphins from a sweat session.
However, you do have some diamonds in the rough who are looking for play. When you’re in the sauna, the towel indicator is enormous (and hopefully, it is enormous!)
What’s the towel indicator at the local gay hookup gym in LA?
If you notice someone has their towel tightly tucked in their waistband, that baby is most likely not coming off anytime soon. If you spot a guy taking a quick snooze or catching up on the latest news, they’re not interested in playing.
So, look for the guy who is playing it loosey-goosey. Most guys looking to play in the sauna are very fluid with their bodies. Some will be carefree and super loose with their towels, but my fave hotties are the ones who will just wholly strip down naked and play with themselves for a bit of exhibitionism! Like, yes, I am getting the hint, loud and clear.
But also, some guys keep their towels loose, just every-so-slightly exposing their junk very nonchalantly; they don’t mind if you see anything, and they are likely keeping that towel loose because so are they!
So, if you’ve spotted a local slut like yourself beneath the steam, the towel barely hanging on, they’re most likely down to play as well.
Move closer and start a friendly conversation. Play with your own loose towel and look for where this male makes eye contact; see where their eyes drift to and if they still keep their towel loose when you get closer. If they don’t tie up their towel and hurry away, they want to play, so go for it, I would say!
Now, as you start jerking, rubbing or touching, make sure you’re also not getting too comfortable because this is a public space, so keep that head on a swivel. The last thing you need is to get caught and have some loser ban you from your go-to gym. Keep an eye out for the door and a hand on that cock (wink, wink).
What are the best gay gym saunas to experience in Los Angeles?
There are plenty of saunas in Los Angeles, but the best cruising saunas are located in the gay West Hollywood area. Most guys I know opt-in for the new fitness gym, John Reed, on Santa Monica Boulevard, but the best one I know is Crunch Fitness on Sunset. At John Reed, membership is pricey, so Crunch Fitness is more your speed if you’re not looking to spend much money.
Now, now, now: Squirt.org doesn’t ever promote hooking up and having risky, gay public sex at these gym locations; this is my opinion only, and where I might’ve had some luck in the past…
What are the best gay cruising parks in Los Angeles?
Parks are the best places to cruise. I don’t know if I just love being outdoors and getting railed, but the thrill of being in a public park and being naked is so fun to me.
Cruising in the daytime is unheard of, but if you find someone willing to risk it all with you, I say go for it. While you’re on your back getting fucked until you see stars, try to get some perineum sunning in, too, avoid those tanlines, and get that vitamin D!
Some great park cruising locations include Poinsettia Park, Elysian Park, Runyon Canyon, and Plummer Park. If you can check out some of these locations, let me know how it went!
When is the best time to go for gay park cruising adventures?
I typically go at nighttime. There are no random bystanders who might call the cops on you or homeless people surrounding you so that you can get away with a little more.
The parks in Los Angeles are all different, so this may only be the case in some places.
As I mentioned above, my fave park I frequent is Poinsettia in Hollywood. Right off the border of West Hollywood, this park is the perfect place to find great-looking guys trying to get their rocks off, and let me say, I oblige.
Poinsettia Park has a racquetball wall in the basketball court area, and that’s typically the area guys go to hookup. The wall is surrounded so you can only see in from one side, making it the perfect nook to take a 10-inch cock.
A couple of months ago, I met up with a guy here, and it was such a hot experience. We met under the unlit basketball court lights and started getting to it.
We eventually made it over to the racquetball wall for a little more privacy when a group of four guys came around and joined in on the fun. After twenty minutes and five loads later, it was time to wrap it up and call it a night, where we exchanged phone numbers and went our separate ways.
Being at a park at night can be very dangerous, so be aware of your surroundings.
Phone and wallet thieves are common in Los Angeles, and if you think it won’t happen to you while cruising, think again. If you are going to try something like this, make sure you share your location with a close friend, just in case; this can be an enjoyable experience, but it can all be ruined so fast. Just be careful because people can be crazy; safety is paramount!
What is Vaseline Alley in LA: is this the oldest gay cruising spot in Cali?
Located behind Out of the Closet on Santa Monica Boulevard in West Hollywood, Vaseline Alley is the oldest cruising location in Los Angeles. It was an extremely cruisy area from the 1970s to the 2010s, but times have changed.
It’s not that this area isn’t crowded anymore, but the more popular locations are frequented a little more than Vaseline Alley. In the early 2000s, there was a popular gay bar called Gold Coast (now Or Bar), where patrons would dance the night away and find a companion in the alley behind the bar.
Circus of Books is located on the corner directly across the street from the old Gold Coast. Initially owned by the Mason family as a pornography establishment and cruising empire, the business was eventually sold to ChiChiLaRue and still stands in the exact location to this day.
Now just specializing in sex toys and enhancers, guys tend to resort to the hundred feet of pavement in the alley behind the bar. If you’re looking to come here, you won’t have a problem finding someone to suck your fat cock or bend you over the hood of the car and fuck you senseless – but let’s just make sure the family of four doesn’t see you.
What are the best gay bathhouses to cruise in LA?
A bathhouse is a gay man’s playground; this is a highly open place where men come to show off and hook up, so if you’re looking to get with someone pronto, this is the place to go.
Firstly, you’ll be greeted by a front desk worker. You must show some ID and buy a locker or room rental. The people who work here and there to help have seen it all, so don’t be afraid to ask them for help or anything you need. From there, you’re good to go.
Bathhouses aren’t always sex dens; they can be great social gatherings, too.
If you decide to go on a weeknight, you’ll most likely encounter a meager crowd—people just hanging out and using the rented rooms.
Suppose you go on a weekend night, like a Friday or Saturday. In that case, you’d notice a lot more activity from the amenities—using the gym naked, having a cute skinny dip, or socializing on the outdoor patio (clothing is optional); this is the time I usually like to go because you can get a glimpse or even hook up with some hot-hot men here.
Consent is essential, so look for the signals before you just jump on that dick! Eye contact is big here; catch each other’s gaze and go from there.
If you’re one of those people who have huge balls (figuratively speaking, but maybe also literally) and can just walk up to anyone, brushing the back of your hand against someone can indicate that you’re into them and want to take things a little further.
There are only a few bathhouse options in Los Angeles. The first and most well-known is Flex Spa, located off the 101 and centrally located, so there is a broad mix of guys here.
Flex can be a great place to cruise, and I’ve had a lot of fun, so make sure you can check it out yourself. It can get jam-packed on the weekends, and sometimes, the rented rooms are unavailable, but you can still purchase a locker and have a good time.
Next is the North Hollywood Spa in the valley. This bathhouse resembles Flex, but you have a different vibe and crowd here—more low-key and chill. I tend to gravitate towards North Hollywood Spa because I like the people there. It can sound unbelievable, but you can find some excellent friends there like I have—or even your next friends with benefits, too!
A break to talk about gay douching and prepping for the bathhouse
Whether you’re new to the world of douching or a pro, if you plan to take some loads at the bathhouse, you’ve got to clean that ass!
I’ve had the chance to learn all the different ways gay men prepare for the sex of their dreams. Los Angeles is the mecca for porn, but that doesn’t mean all your sexual fantasies are going to be clean like a porn scene. Meaning shit happens, but there are ways we might be able to prevent it.
I want to turn this into something other than a step-by-step tutorial but more of a friendly conversation.
If you’re trying to go the cheaper route, your best bet is your local drug store, like a CVS, Rite-Aid, or getting your gay douche kit discreetly in the mail at the Squirt.org Gay Sex Toy Store! If you’re trying to invest in your future and pay a little more, they have plenty of places you can go to online to get the enema of your dreams that’ll last a lifetime—well, maybe not a lifetime, but a lot longer than a cheap drug store douche.
What should I look for when douching for the first time?
If you’re a bottom in need of a fast solution, there are a TON of household gadgets you can use to fix that mess down there. In Los Angeles, I know a lot of gay men that encourage using your retractable shower nozzle; just be cautious of the water pressure; you don’t want to give yourself a new butthole! If you don’t have your own douche set, at least opt-in for the drugstore five-dollar douche.
If the above is the route you go, you’re going to get that hole with spit, water or lube to ease the friction of putting the tip of the enema in your ass. Make sure you have a towel and somewhere you can rinse off comfortably, like the shower. Do not rinse with anything besides water; this is CRUCIAL!
Next, you are going to want to fill the enema with water. Sink water is fine, and the goal here is to squeeze all the water into your ass and push it all out into the toilet as if you’re having a movement. I know, TMI, but you’ve made it this far, so you must be here for a reason!
If you catch my drift, you will want to do this a couple of times until the water becomes clear and not saturated with anything brown. Ensure you release all the water you shot up there, or you’ll have a spillage in the aisle back door. Once you have reached this point, you are ready to hit Pound Town, Breeding Central, or even the darkest of gay sauna darkroom.

And there you have it!
Cruising in these locations can be fun, so unleash your inner exhibitionist and try it out!
I’ve had some of the best sexual encounters at these places, and I’d do it again for sure. Maybe that can be my next video for OnlyFans??
Most of the time, guys can’t host, so these places are great alternatives to giving out your home address. The rush you get from taking it in public surrounded by a bunch of guys or plowing a twink in a dark alleyway at three in the morning is unmatched. Well, now that you know the best spots from an LA local, gay OnlyFans cruising slut, you’re ready to take on the biggest dicks in and around my local LA ‘hood. Hopefully, I’ll see you out there.
