Panama City is noted for its vibrant nightlife that is evident in all the 3 sectors of the city: the business district, Casco Viejo, the historic Spanish Colonial sector of the city and stunning Amador Causeway linking a string of Panama Bay islands with ocean and city views both day and night. |
The Panamanians love a party - a fact reflected in a wide variety of nightlife spots-bars, discos, pubs and casinos. As in any big city, keep to the lighted main streets and you will have a rollicking time. Taking a taxi from your hotel is a safe way to get to any of the nightspots.

El Pavo Real
Description: FINANCIAL DISTRICT. This traditional English pub hops every night of the week, thanks to live music that starts at 11pm. British and American ex-pats frequently gather here for pints of Guinness and a game of darts or pool. On most weekdays, happy hour pulls folks in after the work day, letting them escape the daily grind. Of course, you can also indulge in classic bar snacks, like vinegary fish and chips served in a newspaper cone.

Las Bovedas
Description: CASCO VIEJO. “Bovedas” means "dungeon," and that's exactly where this bar and restaurant is located – in an old colonial dungeon in San Felipe. Rough stone walls provide immediate atmosphere, and they're a perfect setting for smooth, cool jazz and a cocktail or two. Bands play all weekend and occasionally during the week. Great local color.
