Best bars in Punta Cana
Punta Cana bars are great for starting the night off on a high. Most of the nightclubs open later at night, so it's good to have a few back-up bars in your arsenal to visit before hitting a nightclub or two. A favourite with the locals is the Drinks Point bar, which you can find just outside the Cortecito district. Listen to native music and enjoy positive vibes as you gulp down reasonably priced drinks in this cheery bar.
Another great bar is the Kan Drink House over in Bavaro. Known for its incredible cocktail menu and sultry music, this bar is perfect for anyone who wants to try some salsa dancing on their night out.
For a more laid-back feel and chilled-out music, The Soles Bar is ideal. It overlooks the pearly white sands of Bavaro Beach, which is perfect if you want to take your drinks outside and enjoy the night scene under the stars.
Best nightclubs in Punta Cana
Uncover the vibrant atmosphere of Pearl Beach Club, which offers a great mix of culinary delights, drinks and refreshing music. Palm trees and hammocks are scattered throughout the grounds and you're free to lie back and relax your feet after a fun dancing session on the floor. Live music is a nightly occurrence too, so this is a great choice if you're looking for an epic beach club with plenty of life.
One of the most famous of Punta Cana nightclubs is Coco Bongo, which puts on amazing shows with live dancers, singers and performing acrobats that are guaranteed to give you an experience to remember. There's a Vegas vibe to this one and the club is ideal for all-night dancing and socialising with the friendly locals. Alternatively, you can head to Imagine, a crazy nightclub set inside a natural cave that's been transformed into a lavish club. Dancers and live musicians hit the stage almost every night and there's regular transport to and from the club from popular resorts, so at least you won't have a long time to wait to catch a ride back to your hotel at the end of the night.
