6 Best Nightlife in Ibiza and the Balearic Islands, Spain

The over-the-top baroque exuberance of this bar sets it apart from its humble setting. There are urns and baskets of fresh flowers and fruit tumbling out on to the floor, stone pillars and vaulted ceilings, tall candles, and ambient opera music. Be warned: Abaco's signature cocktails will knock you back €16.

Tucked down Carrer dels Apuntadors, Wineing is a great place to try wines from across the island and beyond. There's a self-service, credit-card-operated system that dispenses small tastings (or larger glasses, if you feel inclined), plus a menu of tapas, cheese platters, and grilled meats for sharing.

On the west side of Passeig des Born in the old town, this street is lined with casual bars and cafés that appeal to night owls in their twenties and thirties. On the weekend, you can often come across impromptu live rock and pop performed on small stages.

Palma's casino is a short distance from the harbor. Entrance costs €8 and includes a drink; you'll need to show a passport, driver's license, or other official photo ID to enter. Dress is informal, but T-shirts, shorts, and sandals are frowned on. No-limit poker tables and Texas Hold'em tournaments are the big attraction here. It's open daily 10 am–5 am.

Some of Palma's best jazz combos—and the occasional rock group—play this small, smoky club in the old port-side neighborhood. There's music every night, and it keeps going until 3 am on Friday and Saturday.

This square, along with the surrounding streets, is the place to go for copas (drinking, tapas sampling, and general carousing).
