2 Best Nightlife in Fort-de-France, Martinique

On the outskirts of Fort-de-France, the Casino Batelière Plaza was built in a striking nouveau-plantation-house style, all cranberry and white. Slots open at 10 am, but table games (American roulette, blackjack, and stud poker) don't start until after 8 pm and close at 3:00 am. There's always a bar open, and you can often catch live entertainment on weekends after 8. It's open Sunday night, when most places are shut tight. Restaurant Le Club Seven, which serves Franco-creole food, offers themed parties on weekends. A new concert hall is impressive as well.

Located within the modern four-star hotel Le Simon, Le Bolibar lounge and restaurant offers a breathtaking view on la Baie des Flamands. Open from 5 pm to 10 pm; you can enjoy your cocktail and tapas on the terrace at sunset. The service can take time.
