Jávea Nightlife: Guide to the Best Nightclubs & Bars
Most of the Jávea nightlife is centred around the Arenal beach area where most of the bars and clubs are located. However, the Old Town and Port areas also offer their own unique and fantastic spots that are well worth a visit.
In this guide, we have highlighted some of the top nightlife venues in the area, providing a snapshot of where to find the best bar and club experiences. As the nightlife scene in Jávea continues to evolve, we’ll keep you updated with the newest bars and clubs that join the mix.
Jávea Bars
Chabada
Ask any local about Chabada and undoubtedly hear something like “Chabada? Oh, what used to be Champagne”. Chabada stands as a renowned haven for cocktail enthusiasts.
Chabada takes pride in serving its own unique cocktail creations alongside classic favourites. From ‘Love Story’, ‘Insomnie’, ‘Granadella’, ‘Toro’, to the favourite classics, Mojito, Pina Colada and Cosmopolitan, you’ll find something you love.
Chabada is also the home to their infamous Desastre cocktail, a closely-guarded recipe shrouded in mystery, with a blend of secret ingredients that keep patrons guessing. We personally LOVE the Desatre as it can be ordered in a large glass for 2 to share, or in a captivating fishbowl form for 4+ people – and makes for an ideal pre-drink for a late night!
Chabada’s vibrant atmosphere comes alive on Saturday evenings with captivating live music from local bands and DJs, setting the stage for an unforgettable night of entertainment.
Nightclubs
Achill Bar & Dancefloor
Achill Jávea stands out as the main nightclub on Arenal Beach, well-liked for its cocktails, vibrant music, and stunning views of the Montgo mountain while partying until dawn. Find Achill on the Arenal beach in Jávea, overlooking the beach at the far end.
Achill has one of the best rooftop terraces in the area that provides the most scenic views of both the beach and Montgo. The indoor is dedicated to a bustling dance floor coming alive under the guidance of both resident and guest DJs. Achill announces themed nights, but tends to specialise on house music.
As clubs in Spain open till literally sunrise, Achill lets you dance until dawn, closing at 5am – just in time to catch the sunrise over the sea. This is an absolute must-see as the view is a sight like no other.
