Nightlife Spot: La Tasquita

In this bar you will find what are probably the cheapest cocktails of Caracas! Somewhat weird liquor combinations, set on fire... Impressive show around the drinks. If you want to be a little daredevil, order a "sangre del predatore"... NOT FOR BEGINNERS!!!
The bar itself isn't the fancyest place but it's pretty cosy. There is a tv hanging in there where they put on the important baseball games or the miss Venezuela elections. It's not a very safe place to go to as a tourist but if you are accompanied with Venezuelan friends, there is nothing to worry about! Except maybe drinking too much...

Nightlife Spot: The Flower

This club called "The Flower" didn't steal it's name. Inside the club, the walls and cealing are covered in flower print. Very different! I was told this club has been in Caracas since the 70's. Guess we know where the inspiration came from hunh?! In this club you wil find couples and groups of friends mostley , 30+, which occational exceptions ofcourse. This is a good place to dance salsa, merengue, reggeaton, bachta... Great fun!

Dress Code: Doesn't really matter what you wear, it's kind of dark on the dancefloor, but ofcourse, you always want to look your best when going to a club, no?

Nightlife Spot: 12:31

What makes this club different from all the other ones, is the fact that i closes EXACTLY at 12:31... at NOON! Party go-ers, get here pretty late, you pay admision to get in, with which you get a bottle of liquor (Venezuelans like to have a good drink) and kepp partying until noon. The inside is very modern, with very cool seats where you can lounge out if your feet get tired, a dancefloor with black lights, loud hip music and lots of action going on. Even if you don't want to dance, you'll have a great time watching the dancers! The music played here is mostely reggeaton and HipHop/R&B. The public varies between ages 16 (with fake id) to 25. W

Nightlife Spot: El Leon

If you would ask me what is special about "El Leon", I wouldn't know what to answer.. It's just a simple terras with white plastic tables and chairs. Just a good place to unwind with some friends and a cold beer, after a busy day. Every now and then some street performers pass by to do a little show or promote something. You can also order snacks and pizzas here. Everything you need to calmly end an evening!

Nightlife Spot: Trench Town

The name of the bar says it all; this bar is a reggea bar. The vibe is very relaxed, people chatting to one another, map of Jamaica painted on the wall, cubic seating puffs, green, yellow, red ans blue lights. If you are at all into reggea, you must not skip this place!!

Nightlife Spot: Samoa

This is an all surfing bar. When inside, it seems as though you actually are on the island Samoa, getting ready to ride the waves! They even built a huge sequoia tree inside the bar to make it look like the island. This is one of the coolest bars I have ever been to! An absolute MUST, even if only for the exotic cocktails you can get!

Nightlife Spot: San Ignacio

San Ignacio is the place you want to go to if you want to party with the wealthier Caracans. In this area, the drinks in the bar are also more expensive and you will see the most incredible lignes to get into certain clubs. Girls flirting with the doorman so he will let them in, guys trying to pay them... I found it funnier to observe this secne from a short distance then actually being a part of it...

Nightlife Spot: Evena's bar

Here it's the terras that makes it special. It's outdoor (obviously) but there is a roof over the terras; seating consists of big puff and low tables decorated with candles. Very comfi! As you slouch in the puffs, you have vieuw on a big screen hanging high above you. They project big events or music clips on this screen. So if you would run out of things to talk about, atleast you have something to stare at ;)

Dress Code: I wouldn't rcommend short skirts or dresses for the ladies, it's not very handy to sit in a puff when wearing that!!

Nightlife Spot: La Union

La Union is a street where in the evenings bunches of people drive up to. Doors open, music on maximum volume, friends dancing together by the car, loud laughter, drinking... Basically a collection of small group gathering forming one big party on the streets! This isn't legal but it doesn't harm anyone (there are no residential houses on that street) and the police doesn't seem to care too much. The street is pretty much on the top of a hill which makes it great to party in the open, tousand lights benethe you, big bright moon above you. It's something you have to experience!
