It's really good.In my case,better than expected.

I have been there a few times(The last one this last weekend) and all that I can say is that Alicante's night life worth it.

There's a party area placed just below Santa Barbara castle known as "El Barrio".It's plenty of young and hot people who gathers right there to have fun in all that varied pubs and bars spread along these steep and narrows streets.

After that(Most of the mentioned pubs and bars close at 3:30/4:00 AM) the plan for many people is to continue having fun in some clubs around the city opened till late.

PS: Nice pics by the way!!

i can only agree with mare! the night life is special, after 4am the party continues at the harbor area until 8-9am. it's normal here to start going out after 1am.it's a paradise here
