Fun and entertainment Côte Amalfitaine

African dye, parasols hiding sight on the castle, reserved for tables at the end of the terrace. R 'n' B music mainly, pop and rock 'n' roll. The Mar. Sal is mostly frequented by tourists, and just has the advantage of being open late in August, when all the other bars in the city are closed. In winter, the nightlife of the place has little interest.

In the heart of an elegant street in the Chiaia district, this is the most popular club for the Neapolitan golden youth. La Mela was founded in 1967 in Via dei Mille and since then it has constantly reinvented itself, adapting to new clubbing trends. Maradona, Naomi Campbell, Claudia Cardinale, Giorgio Armani are just some of the celebrities who have graced its dance floor. The place has a rather flashy, "I've seen it all" feel to it, with a rather young, preppy clientele and loud electro-house music.

Located near the Parc park. One of Naples'biggest discos with three rooms and three different atmospheres.

Near Piazza del Gesù Nuovo. One of the clubs of the moment, where the alternative young and Neapolitan students, always ready to prolong the night, punisher until late on techno-hip-hop mixes.

Located in the chic Chiaia district. Joyce alterne between hip-hop, funk and soul. Again, youth a POSHER hair but it is always fun to immerse itself in the atmosphere.

In the Vomero district, this small jazz club is undoubtedly the most famous in the city. It has been the venue for some of the biggest European and North American stars who have come to Naples. The music is always of high quality, the staff is very friendly and the service is fast. If it is possible to eat here, we advise you to limit yourself to a drink and to dine in one of the restaurants in the neighbourhood... Finally, for certain evenings, it is preferable to make a reservation, as the premises are relatively small.

Change of atmosphere in this Italian-Arab bar, oriental decoration and music with Persian carpets and arabesque mirrors. It is very frequented by the students of the district, who like to smoke chicha there. Relaxed atmosphere for a relaxing moment in Piazza Bellini. The bar also offers small oriental dishes such as couscous, falafels or maqluba, a Palestinian dish (a mixture of rice, chicken and eggplant). The Caffè Arabo offers slightly better prices than the bars around the square.

The black goose sign is located in a street adjacent to Piazza Vanvitelli, in the Vomero district. This Irish pub has for credo "Life is too short to drink bad beers"! Promise kept, there is a nice selection of beers, Irish classics like Guinness or Kilkenny, but also Italian or Belgian brands. The pub also serves hamburgers. Beware: the service is charged at 15%, no need to bring a tip! An advice, arrive early in the evening, because the place is often crowded.

The Alaska Pub has several rooms, including two main areas, the ristopub and the cocktail bar. The latter is located just after the entrance, you won't be able to miss it with its imposing 6 m long oak counter. Just behind it, the barmen are eager to advise you on their best cocktails and spirits, as the list is long. Ideal for an aperitif or a drink in the evening, but you can also sit down for a sandwich or a hamburger with certified meat from non-intensive farms.

Classical plays, contemporary performances and lyrical shows are in the spotlight in this reference theatre in Naples. Inaugurated in 1864, the theatre was devastated by fire five years later. Once restored in 1878, the first performance given there was an opera by Bellini. Note the façade decorated with busts of Neapolitan musicians (Scarlatti, Pergolesi). The horseshoe-shaped interior houses the dressing rooms on six levels one on top of the other. The fresco on the vault, The Triumph of Music, pays homage to Bellini.

This wine bar and restaurant offers a wide and interesting selection of vintages from all over Italy by the glass and bottle.

With its curious facade of twisted pillars decorated with blue ceramic scales, Bar Sirena does not go unnoticed. But its indisputable asset is its terrace overlooking the beach, on the other side of the street. What a pleasure it is to lounge in the shade of the umbrella pines while sipping a strong espresso or an Amalfi spritz (made with limoncello and lemon sorbet)! The establishment also offers paninis, pizzas and a snack service. Prices are quite reasonable for Amalfi and for the location.

A chic tavern, dedicated to music, with many trompe-l'oeil paintings. Guido, the popular singer and master of the place, with his guitar, his good mood, his flowered shirts and his communicative energy, sets the place on fire. He plays classic Italian and Neapolitan tunes. For a few years now, he has been assisted by his son Gianluigi, who has helped to rejuvenate the tavern's clientele and open it up to new horizons. No dress code, the place is open to all... but it is still quite stuffy!
