  4. Three Monkeys Pub

    The beating heart of Eilat's nightlife can be found at this wannabe English pub, which has 12 types of beer on tap (whether they can pour them is another question) and enough fruity cocktails to keep the sunburnt punters happy. Sit out on the sand under the fairy-lit palm trees, until you are drunk enough to think that the live cover band is good enough for a boogie.

  5. Underground Pub

    A travellers' favourite, pub grub, easy music and nightly live entertainment including a popular Wednesday-night karaoke party. Cheap beer fuels a lively crowd. There are several outdoor pool tables and live sports on the big screen inside.

  6. Unplugged

    Next door to the Underground Pub, this place has a main bar plus a popular outdoor tented area that attracts rowdy young things pretending to be drunk, and sleazy soldiers who commandeer the picnic tables with impressive MTV rip-off dance moves. While it would be an OK place to puff on a water pipe and relax on the couches, the music is so loud it makes chatting with friends a distinct impossibility.

  7. Village

    After a big Friday night, the action gets started early with a beach party gearing up around on Saturdays. It's cheesy but lots of fun, with a sandy dance floor, a DJ playing Israeli rap and staff hosing everyone down just in case they get too hot, hot, hot.
