Mexico is a top party destination, featuring expansive white sand beaches and many cities to party in. The drinking age here is 18, so expect lots of American college students who party here. Here are the top five Mexican cities to visit and enjoy a party every night of the week.

 

Rosarito Beach 

Located on the Baja Peninsula, Rosarito Beach is only a 20 minute ride from San Diego, California. Rosarito is home to a large American expatriate community with miles of beaches and spas that cater to every whim. Golf courses are featured here with plenty of shopping and fine, gourmet restaurants.

Nightlife starts at Papas & Beer that features one of the largest beach clubs on the west coast. Visitors on holiday can choose to drink on the beach or dance the night away inside. Activities include volleyball, swimming, biking and weekend parties.

 

Puerto Vallarta

 

Puerto Vallarta is a big holiday spot located on the Pacific Ocean. This area features fun shopping, a golf course and outstanding restaurants. Most people on holiday travel here to enjoy the golden beaches. Parasailing, snorkeling, jet skiing and wind surfing are popular activities during the day. The average temperature at this tropical location is 85 degrees Fahrenheit, and it cools down to 70 degrees at night.

After the sun sets, people head to Bebo Tero for rock & roll music and romantic vistas of Banderas Bay. Christine is a disco bar that can pack in 1,200 people for a great party that lasts until dawn. This is a playground for the rich and famous, so expect to pay more than usual.

 

Cabo San Lucas

 

This is one of the newer spots that is starting to attract people on holiday. Located on the northern tip of Baja, Cabo San Lucas offers ideal weather throughout the year. Travelers can find luxury resorts on many of the white sand beaches here. Whale watching, surfing and taking cruises are fun things to do in the day.

At night, Cabo Wabo Cantina is packed with party-goers and live bands. The club has been featured on MTV as one of the best party nightclubs in the world. Body Shot Nightclub is the spot to check out celebrities. It’s loud and buzzy, and everyone has a great time clubbing here.

 

Acapulco

 

Acapulco is three hours from Mexico City. Beaches and fine hotels attract party people from around the world. Good food is served at really great restaurants for reasonable prices. Cruises, cliff dives and relaxing in the sun occupy the days here.

The better nightclubs charge $25 to enter, but you’ll enjoy an open bar for the price. Disco Beach is an open-air disco that attracts the dancing crowd. Younger people head to El Alerije to enjoy Latin music on the giant dance floor.

 

Cancun

 

Senor Frogs is known around the globe as one of the best party bars in Mexico. It gets a tad crazy here between the amusement park and the bar at Frogs. Coco Bongo has the best mix of live music and DJs in Cancun. It has a capacity of 30,000, so carry a map.
