A guide to nightlife in Roquetas De Mar

If you’re looking for a lively nightlife scene filled with bars and clubs, Roquetas de Mar may disappoint you. This tranquil resort town in Costa de Almeria is not known for having a raucous party scene – it is much more common to find a quiet tapas bar on the beach where you can watch the sun disappear beneath the waves with a glass of your favourite spirit or bubbly in hand. There are a couple of spots in Roquetas de Mar that enjoy a bit of karaoke and dancing, alongside a few British pubs and Spanish cafes that are ideal for a casual evening.

Lively nights at Manhattan Karaoke Show Bar

This upbeat karaoke joint is well-known for its friendly atmosphere and welcoming staff. Come to their Tuesday Cabaret night for large cocktails at reasonable prices, or give your vocals a workout with some cheesy karaoke. Manhattan Karaoke Show Bar is popular with both tourist and locals alike and has no entry fee at the door. Join in with the sing-alongs at this upbeat bar and make some new friends as you belt out your favourite tunes.
