While technically a restaurant and bar, Senor Frog's is an integral part of the city's nightly entertainment lineup. This longstanding Cancun establishment offers music, dancing and karaoke from sundown to 3 a.m. and boasts a casual party atmosphere where bathing suits and flip-flops are more than welcome. Senor Frog's true claim to fame, however, is the bar's 16-inch long "yard glass" of beer.

Basic is the only Cancun night club built over the lagoon and counts views of the ocean and night sky as part of its decor. However, the club's location is not its only claim to fame. Basic is open from Wednesday to Sunday and hosts nightly theme parties, including a Thursday-night foam party and a Sunday-night bikini contest. The atmosphere at Basic is casual, and guests are encouraged to dance until sunrise to the sounds of trance, hip hop and reggaeton.
