Look for the drunk-looking seahorse sign. Inside, it’s loud and packed with young Spaniards and Mallorcans. The main room has a big TV, bar and tables, while the terrace has views of the entire port. There is also a quieter room with table football.

A wonderfully rustic place, with an open fireplace, a couple of friendly dogs and a very affable proprietor. There are drinks (including delicious drinking chocolates), pastries, tapas and daily specials.

This late-night draw is the area’s choice for a modern Spanish music repertoire.

A very popular spot with a huge terrace, Miró-esque decorations and a good-sized dance floor. Music tends towards hits of the day, with occasional live acts.

This entire street, just a block from the Marina, is loaded with tiny dives that are thronged from midnight to 7am. Glitzily-dressed young people come out to party in Makoki’s, Saltre Pub, Pub Limite, Mongo Bongo, Séstil, Es Bidò and more.

It’s the only nightspot in town. The music is extremely diverse, aimed at keeping the equally eclectic mix of clientele dancing till dawn. It’s all a bit retro, with a less than state-of-the-art sound and lights system, but no less fun for that.

The port attracts a young, active crowd for whom this is the numero uno club in town, leading the way with techno, hip-hop and black music.

The evocative decor mixes US license plates and nautical objects. The annex below is the El Faro wine bar, and all of it is part of a white stucco complex of trendy shops and restaurants.

A hip place done up in primary colours, with tiny halogen lights above a granite bar and an assemblage by Basque artist S’Anto Iñorrieta.
