Friday kicked off with full pool vibes and no holding back. The lazy river turned into a social current as the crowd swelled—speedos sparkled, the bears made their rounds, and the music kept that bounce alive all afternoon 🎶🍹 As the sun dipped low, the crowd got high on energy—poolside cruising turned into dance floor teasing, and let’s just say the towel check line got extra friendly 😉 Friday was a splash heard around the gay bear world—and this gallery proves it.

Saturday was a full-blown celebration of self-expression and community pride. Every color of the rainbow showed up in bold, beautiful outfits that turned the pool deck into a living runway. From mesh to leather, neon to just about nothing, confidence was the dress code—and the bears brought it. The final pool party hit peak splash levels with music that never let up and a crowd that wasn’t ready to say goodbye. Memories got made faster than you could say “pass the sunscreen.” 💥 This was the exclamation point at the end of an unforgettable Tidal Wave—where joy, freedom, and a little flirtation ruled the day.
