Pachuka

Venice is not renowned for an excess of nightlife opportunities, but the beach discotheque Pachuka is the only place to be this summer. On the Lido island, a short hop from Venice central, this club is popular with young Venetians jiving to its Latin, Salsa, House and '80s revival nights. Should the sunburn get too painful you can retire to the bar for an icy Pina Colada and listen to chat-up lines Venetian-style. Food is served until late and the Red Bull and vodkas will make anyone feel at home. Check out the Restaurants in Venice guide for more reviews and ideas for your nights out.
