Guide to Albufeira Nightlife for Hen Weekends
It wouldn’t be complete without a night or two hitting the town, and Portuguese nightlife might just surprise you. Although not always the first to spring to mind, a night out in the Algarve is just what you need to give the bride to be the send-off she deserves.
The Strip in Albufeira
Not like this will come as a surprise to anyone but The Strip is where you need to head for a wild night out in Albufeira. If you are wanting to make the night out one to remember with the best bars, clubs and places for food when the night is over then this is where you need to head. During the day this is still an extremely popular street where you can enjoy a meal and explore some of the local shops. But by night it comes alive and is always buzzing.
If you follow The Strip all the way up, you will have yourselves one incredible night out to remember (or forget!) So if you are wanting to find the ultimate party experience for you and the girls head over to Albufeira 66. This bar serves up food during the day and by the night, has one of the liveliest parties on the entire strip. It’s a great place to try and explore to start off the celebrations.
Another great bar with some amazing atmosphere and entertainment is Wild & Co. A great venue where you can enjoy live music from the bar’s resident band and DJ sets later on in the evening. They also have a great cocktail selection on offer for you and the girls to test out whilst enjoying the entertainment and the interior.
To help make this a night out to remember we suggest you stop off at Matt’s Bar. A bar that is known for being extremely welcoming to hen and stag groups so what better place to go to? There are a variety of different events and themed parties for you and the girls to enjoy. Make sure you check out their site or stop by in the day to see what type of event they have on whilst you are there for the weekend. You won’t be disappointed.
And what better way to end the night than by heading to a nightclub or two. There are some incredible nightclubs in Albufeira but the two main ones are the ones on The Strip. Club Heaven Albufeira is one of the best party hotspots if you want to dance until the sun comes up. It has the largest dancefloor out of anywhere on the South Coast with a great variety of music that plays.
If you aren’t convinced by one club, try out The Strips other big nightclub. Whether you want to try out both of them or explore one or the other you will have an unforgettable night out. Club Vida Albufeira is famous for its Dutch DJ summer line ups that attract party goers from everywhere and anywhere. All the girls won’t be able to resist getting up and dancing here.
Old Town
If you are all about taking in history during your celebration in Albufeira then you might want to start your night at one of the oldest bars in the Old Town. Opened way back in 1963, Sir Harry’s Bar is a great place to start if you want a drink or two, and it’s a favourite of many tourists so you will feel right at home here.
In the heart of the bars in the Old Town you will find Bar Twist. If you want something fun with an unbeatable party atmosphere, then this is a great place to start. Bar Twist specialises in some amazing, unique cocktails. It’s also open until the early hours of the morning so if you fancy staying here all night you can!
Another great bar that has some of the best atmosphere and welcomes everyone and anyone inside is Classic Bar. Here you will find amazingly priced drinks, amazing décor and a huge dancefloor. You and the girls will be able to enjoy a drink or two (or three) and dance the night away in style inside of Classic Bar.
Praceta dos Aveiros (Street)
This area of Albufeira is a slightly quieter area that not many people head to. But here you will find some amazing areas to enjoy a drink and a dance. In fact, most people usually head to Praceta dos Aveiros for one venue in particular…Kiss Nightclub. Although you have to head just outside of the main town for this nightclub it’s an extremely popular place to go and so many people do make the journey. So if you want to head somewhere extremely popular for your night out then this is the place to go.
If you want somewhere nearby to head before you hit the club try out Zoo Bar. Sitting nicely right beside Kiss you will be able to enjoy everything and anything here. Fantastic drinks, a great selection of food and an outdoor area where you can watch the sunset.
