2. San Antonio, Ibiza

The west coast of Ibiza has a legendary nightlife status, but daytimes are just as exciting. You can experience champagne sprays at O Beach or sail away on an all-day boat party where the music’s pumping and drinks are flowing. When it comes to clubs, you’ve got Eden, Es Paradis and Ibiza Rocks right on your doorstep.

Don’t miss: Café Mambo – it’s the place to catch some of the best sunsets on the island. It’s been attracting VIPs for more than 20 years and has hosted DJs such as Pete Tong, Fatboy Slim and Eric Prydz.

3. Playa Del Ingles, Gran Canaria

Venture to Gran Canaria’s sizzling south coast for lazy days under the sun and lively nights sipping cocktails in stylish bars. Hit the golden sands of Playa Del Ingles which stretch for nearly 3km, with a huge array of water sports and beachfront bars. At night, boogie on the Kasbah’s huge open-air dance floor or if you’re looking for something a little more low-key, there’s karaoke and live music in the Irish bars.

Don’t miss: China White – it's the island's top spot for R&B, Hip-hop and soul music.

Make for Malia this summer if you’re looking for some of the best clubs and all-night parties in Europe.
