Daytona Beach Nightlife, Florida

Once famous for its Spring break (the weeklong bacchanal in March that brought packed-hordes of college-going revelers to the city), Daytona Beach city promises you a nightlife experience you will not find in Fort Lauderdale, Miami, Orlando, Tallahassee or Tampa. Daytona Beach nightlife can be an altogether a different experience, even an out-of-the-world feel if you go for something as bizarre as a ghost-hunting tour. But if you are not ready for such hair-raising adventure and would rather be satisfied with bar/club hopping or visiting the cultural venues, then this Daytona Beach nightlife guide will surely help you.

Daytona Beach Nightlife – Popular Bars, Pubs and Lounges

Daytona Beach has quite a few biker bars like the Boot Hill Saloon, Froggy’s and Full Moon Saloon. All the three bars stand in Central Daytona Beach area on Main Street. These biker bars become the center of action during the Bike Week or Biketoberfest when they are swamped with racing-fans and bikers.

The Streamline Hotel Lounges, Nascar Lounge and Penthouse Lounge are far removed from this hullabaloo as is the Clocktower Lounge of Hilton Oceanfront Hotel. The long wine list of the Hilton Hotel bar will please you just as will its live entertainment. Streamline Hotel Lounges offer many varieties of drinks together with dancing and live entertainment; plus, they have a games room with pool tables.

Other popular Daytona beach bars include names like Bishop Tavern, Dirty Harry’s, Mai Tai Bar, Oyster Pub and Robbie O’Connel’s. While Bishop Tavern and Dirty Harry’s. They are part of the Main Street entertainment area, the Mai Tai Bar is located in the Shoppes at Ocean Walk. Both Oyster Pub and Robbie O’Connel’s are Irish-style bars, but the former is more famous for its sporting facilities.

Daytona Beach Nightlife – Popular Clubs

With its 15000 sq ft of floor-area Razzles is the biggest nightclub in Daytona Beach. Besides the dance-floor and 11 bar-counters, Razzles has a VIP lounge and few billiards tables. You need to be properly dressed to enter this Seabreeze Blvd. nightclub.

Then, there is Ocean Deck on Ocean Avenue (by Broadwalk) that gives you three reasons to be pleased – listen to live Reggae and sip specialty drinks while savoring cocktail snacks.

Fuel Nightclub is a perfect club to party all night; get into the groove even as the resident DJs spinning hip-hop, R&B, rock as well as some live music. Dancing to good band music is a possibility even at Frank’s Front Row. Rumors Nite Club is popular for its varied entertainment – drag shows, karaoke and pool tournaments. You will like it all but you are bound to meet a more gay-crowd here.

Daytona Beach Nightlife – Miscellaneous Attractions

The name Daytona Beach Bandshell (popularly known as the Broadwalk) emerges first when we speak of concerts and live-shows. And then, there are the Main Street addresses, Bank & Blues Club and Wise Guys.

Before you drop in on any of the Daytona Beach nightlife sites, it would be wiser to warn you that you need to be at least 18 years old to enter a nightclub. Alcohol consumption is prohibited below the age of 21 (as per Florida Laws). Remember, the bars/clubs are usually packed with youngsters and mature minds may not really come to approve of such clamor. If you are in a mood of downing your drink in a more sedate ambiance, go straight to the hotel lounges or visit the live entertainment venues.
