Like to Party?

You can visit one of the many discos and bars on the main stretch like for instance the Funky Monkey.

One of the coolest places in town is the Funky Monkey owned by a local ex-pat poker player and surfer named Jason. The Funky Monkey is a great afterhour's place where you can quench your thirst in the warm Pacific nights. By the way, don't ever ask Jason to chop in a cash game, he likes to play.

Another place to try is the Onyx Bar. Both are located right on the main drag in town.
