4 Best Nightlife in Ibiza and the Balearic Islands, Spain

This stylish bar near the port has a café-terrace downstairs and live jazz and blues on Thursday and Friday nights. It's open Thurs.–Sun 7 pm–2 am and serves tapas and snacks to share in the evening.

Dug like a cave into the bluff of the little cove of Cala Corb, this is where locals gather on Friday and Saturday, 10 pm–2 am, to sing and play guitar. It's hard to find, but anybody in Es Castell can point the way.

From June to September, catch live music on Wednesdays, as well as some weekends, at the Casino bar and restaurant. Book ahead for tables on the terrace.

This might be the hottest spot in Menorca to catch the sun going down, drink in hand, with afternoon chill-out events with live music. A 20-minute drive from Mahón in the beach resort of Cala en Porter, this unique spot is in a series of caves in a cliff high above the sea, which, according to local legend, was once the refuge of a castaway Moorish pirate called Xoroi.
