The Colombian city of Barranquilla boasts an active nightlife all year round. The majority of Barranquilla's night clubs were once situated in the northern district of the city known as "El Norte." However, many clubs have opened in the central part of Barranquilla. The weather in Barranquilla is typically warm, so the most common attire at the night clubs is jeans and loose shirts. Barranquilla's night clubs can be strict about checking customers' identification and age. Be sure to bring your identification even if you are in your 30s.
Frogg Leggs, in El Norte, has established itself as the most popular night club in Barranquilla. With a capacity of 500 people, Frogg Leggs can get crowded on the weekends so customers should be sure to arrive early and find a spot on the dance floor while there is still room. While the main attraction in Frogg Leggs is the festive atmosphere and dance music, the club also frequently offers special events. The most popular event is the Beach Party, which offers free admission to any guest wearing a swimming suit.

Agua Helada is in central Barranquilla, one of the fastest developing areas of the city. This club's three-floor interior features a spacious dance floor and a mezzanine area for quieter groups. Another popular aspect of Agua Helada is the outdoor terrace where customers can relax and get fresh air. With three floors of club space, Agua Helada can accommodate nearly twice as many people as Frogg Leggs. The club offers a VIP membership to select regulars.

Coco Beach's Sunset Bar is also in central Barranquilla, close to Agua Helada. Unlike the other two night clubs, Coco Beach provides a quieter atmosphere and more laid-back crowd. The club's palm trees and wooden decking invoke the feeling of a night club on the beach, even though it is in the middle of Barranquilla. Loud music and dancing is not the main draw at Coco Beach's Sunset Bar--customers instead enjoy quiet conversation under the moonlight.
