If you want to feel the rhythm of the music and the sun on your skin, these destinations are sure to bring out your inner night owl. From Ibiza to Miami, these beach escapes offer the best of both worlds ensuring they’re suitable for a romantic break as well as a hen or stag do. Regardless of whether you’ve come for a relaxing few days away or a clubbing holiday where you’ll need another just to recover, this is definitely worth a read.

South Beach, Miami

Palm trees, crystal-clear waters and plenty of restaurants and clubs makes South Beach the perfect spot to sunbathe and sip wine while stateside if you’re here to party. The art deco architecture found throughout the area adds an extra element of glamour, and clubs such as Story and LIV are absolute musts if you’ve come to the Magic City for some after-hours antics. Prepare to boogie in your bikini as Nikki Beach features a plethora of DJ-fuelled nights that bring both locals and holiday-makers to the dance floor every evening. Pearl Champagne Lounge is another brilliant choice if you’re after more of an elegant affair, complete with all white décor, glistening chandeliers and a wrap-around terrace with brilliant views of the Atlantic Ocean.
 
Prefer a more tranquil affair? During the day various watersports such as stand-up paddle boarding and jet-skiing can be taken advantage of. Alternatively, take a relaxing romantic stroll with your other half along the promenade or head to Lincoln Road Mall if you fancy shopping in the sun with stores such as Jo Malone, Macy’s and Banana Republic at your disposal.

Cala Jondal, Ibiza

Ibiza is well known for its party atmosphere so it’s only right that it makes our party beaches roundup. Just a 15-minute drive from Ibiza Town, Cala Jondal is one of the best clubbing areas and has its fair share of bars, restaurants and beach clubs to get down with. Reachable only by car and private yacht, there are plenty of USP’s to this stretch of sand. Home to the Tropicana Beach Club, this venue is fantastic for a more chilled out vibe, perfect for all travellers. Caribbean and Brazilian music is played on a Sunday afternoon if that’s your rhythm, or alternatively head to Blue Marlin where you can enjoy a fashion show and dance to resident DJs Tom Crane and Vidal Rodrigues. A host of restaurants serving a range of Mediterranean and international cuisine can be found throughout the area making Cala Jondal a top choice if you fancy turning dinner into a night out.
 
If you’re here for romantic adventures with your other half or you’re in Ibiza for a family holiday, restaurants such as Yemanja which serves traditional Spanish cuisine are bound to be a hit. Catamaran and boat cruises are common practice here too, perfect for those here for their honeymoon or just fancy some one-on-one time with their other half assisted by the gentle lullaby of the ocean.
 
Where to stay: Nobu Hotel Ibiza Bay

Fancy getting away from the stresses of everyday life? 125-kilometres of white sands and cerulean waters should do the trick. The island of Koh Phangan is an oasis of diving opportunities and beaches with Sailrock a must-visit if you fancy a brilliant wall dive or head to Chaloklum Beach for a quieter sunbathe, hidden away from the tourists. Thong Sala night market is a must for foodies wanting to sample a wealth of traditional and international cuisine so if you are feeling peckish after a chilled day on the shore, make sure to swing by here.
 
Haad Rin Beach is an idyllic place if you’ve come to soak up some relaxation as well as the Thai sunshine. The sands are home to the famed Full Moon Party which sees between from 8,000 and 30,000 people travel to the isle that’s a 30-minute boat ride from Koh Samui every month. Taking place on the night of every full moon, this beach party has holiday-makers come from around the globe and take in the atmosphere of this now iconic evening that features fire skipping ropes, varying music to suit all tastes and the ‘bucket’ which consists of a bottle of hard liquor, Red Bull and some ice. 12 sound systems run the length of the beach, so you can expect the music to be blaring, drinks to be flowing and the smiles to be everlasting.
