Varadero Night

Varadero Nightlife

When the evening comes, the look and the pace of Varadero change, and the more than one hundred exciting discotheques, bars, and night clubs open for the enjoyment of those in search of good time out.

So even though most hotels have party halls, piano bars, and excellent tourist animation programs, a cheerful, excited crowd can be seen filling the night places, something that the visitor is encouraged to also do.

Arboleda (La)
Avenida 1ra y Calle 18
Varadero

A description of this nightspot could be brief because of its mere 3 x 10m size. The bar alone takes up half the space, while the kitchen the other half. Nevertheless, there are two aspects that make it stand out. Firstly, it is one of the only places which accepts both currencies. Secondly, this mix allows for a genuine Cuban atmosphere with a live band playing traditional Cuban rhythms. It does not matter that the only four tables are located along the curb, the standing-room-only crowd likes it just like that. The lively evening entertainment offers an opportunity to meet plenty of locals, and the musicians mingle with the crowd, as if throwing the party themselves.
Open Hours: 24 hours daily

This tiny coffee shop is located in an angle of Sauto Teatro building, one of the most monumental and legendary ones all over the island.

Just in between Havana and Matanzas provinces you will find the bridge of Bacunayagua, considered one of Cuba’s seven engineering marvels. From the, 110 m high, viewing-point bar the panorama is breathtaking: the blue sea forming the background of beautiful Yumurí valley with its typical Cuban rural landscape. A lot of people (maybe sometimes too many of them) use it as a stop from their way from Havana to Varadero, while having a drink and enjoying the view. We suggest you to taste the fresh and natural Piña Colada.

Marina Dársena Puerto Sol

Owned by the Dársena marine and located on the outgoing road towards Matanzas. It´s a poorly decorated disco, without any luxury and even lacking any kind of sound and light display. Nevertheless during some week-ends it gets crowed with young and tipsy locals dancing passionately. Very Cuba! Very latino!
