  2. Club La Best

    The newest, liveliest spot in Port Antonio, La Best assumes a different identity depending on the evening. Fridays are dancehall and ladies' nights, Sundays groove to a mellow blend of reggae and old-school R & B, and periodic live shows occur Saturdays.

  3. Lanza Lawn

    This popular venue goes nuts on Crazy Fridays as local DJs trade grooves and pass the mic. Sister P invites the public to nyahbinghi drumming sessions here on Tuesday and Thursday nights.

  4. Roof Club

    This is Port Antonio's infamous hang-loose, rough-around-the-edges reggae bar. Young men and women move from partner to partner. You're fair game for any stranger who wants to try to extract a drink from you. It's relatively dead midweek, when entry is free. But on weekends it hops with Crazy Saturdays, as well as on Thursday - 'Ladies Nite.'

  5. Shadows

    A less rowdy option than most, this place plays vintage music on Tuesday and Sunday. Other nights it can verge on comatose.

  6. Shanshy Beach

    This pretty but badly maintained stretch of sand 2km west of Port Antonio has a big, bad sound system. An area DJ collective called Big Bad Trouble International spins for theme nights including the After Work Jam on Friday featuring dancehall music; Cranked Saturdays with hip-hop, R&B and reggae; and Talent Explosion Sundays featuring local flair. Signs reading 'No Gun Salute' forbid the carrying of concealed weapons. There's a restaurant and bar.
