Some would consider Ibiza a mecca of the world club scene, earning it a spot at the top of this list. The party never ends on this island, making a name for itself as tourists come from all corners of the globe to sleep on the beach, dance to incessant and pulsing house beats, and get a little messy at foam parties that last until dawn.


South Beach, Miami, United States

Beloved by college students and celebrities alike, South Beach is beach party central. Nikki Beach, an open-air club that transforms from an upscale restaurant to a sizzling dance club once the sun sets, is a must. The partying doesn’t always take place on the beach, per se, but the many clubs in the area are so hot, it’s like you never left the sandy shore. The multi-level club Mansion has dance floors (plural!), bars and VIP rooms, and comes with the chance to mingle with models and music stars. It’s a little on the exclusive side, but if you do manage to get in, you’ll dance the night away among the rich and the beautiful.


White Beach, Boracay, Philippines

Word got out eventually (of course), but the party scene hasn’t been dialed back a single bit. When night falls, this incredible beach comes to life. There are amazing fire dancing shows and fireworks, live bands and parties that last from dusk until dawn. There’s a great variety of clubs and bars along the beach, so no matter what kind of music you’re interested in, you’ll find a great place to hang out where the dance floor is never empty.

With only a few hotels, Psarou Beach in Mykonos has managed to remain a pretty well-kept secret. But we’re letting the secret out. Disco beats echo throughout, and there are even a few spots where nudity isn’t considered an option – instead it’s a must. Partying starts in the early afternoon and lasts until the sun comes up the next day, leaving you little time to rest. But let’s face it, that’s not what you came here to do anyway. Search and compare cheap flights to Greece.


Zrće Beach, Novalja, Croatia

On this white-pebbled beach on the Croatian island of Pag, you’ll find the best nightlife Croatia has to offer. At one of the wildest islands on earth, daytime partying is only a precursor to the nonstop partying to come at night, usually lasting all the way until the daytime partying begins anew. The parties at Zrće beach are wild and uninhibited – to the point where clothing isn’t deemed necessary.


Palolem Beach, Goa, India

Every year at least two million tourists make their way to Goa for bonfires, raves and spontaneous outdoor DJ sets. If that’s the scene you’re looking for, then take it from us: Palolem Beach will certainly not disappoint. It’s famous for what’s called a “silent noise party,” a unique experience that offers visitors the chance to dance the night away while listening to headphones the entire time. It may sound a little strange, but these silent raves take place multiple times a week. There has to be some reason they’re so popular, so head to Goa and see for yourself.
