Aura
NIGHTCLUB
(
www.atlantis.com
;
Atlantis, Paradise Island; 9:30pm-4am Thu-Sat) Designed to re-
create the exclusive feel of a trendy New York nightclub, Atlantis' premier dance spot
is one VIP lounge after another. DJs spin as couture-clad partiers gyrate in their stilettos
and investment banker types sip top-drawer vodka and stare from the surrounding ban-
quettes. When young celebrities visit Atlantis, this is where they get wild. Cover charges
vary wildly - try to snag a cheap promotional pass.
Club Waterloo
NIGHTCLUB
(
www.clubwaterloo.com
;
E Bay St; 9pm-4am) In an old lakeside mansion near Fort
Montagu, the Waterloo has been getting Spring Breakers drunk and dancing for 30 years.
With various indoor and outdoor dance floors and multiple bars, it's got something for
everyone (provided you're between 18 and, oh, 25). Music ranges from techno to calypso,
with a heavy emphasis on bootie-shaking beats. Thursday night is Ladies' Night; weekends
bring live bands and big crowds.

;
upstairs at Prince George Plaza, Prince George Wharf;
9am-5am Thu-Sat) This sexy new rooftop dance club promises an Ibiza vibe: throbbing
house music, skin-to-skin crowds, shoooooort skirts. Things don't really get pumping until
after midnight. Then watch out!
Club Fluid
NIGHTCLUB
( W Bay St) Hidden in plain sight in a downtown basement, this locals' favorite gets sweaty
to hip-hop and reggae beats. Hottest after midnight.

Atlantis Resort & Casino
CASINO

10am-4am) The nerve center of the entire Atlantis complex, this 7-acre casino has 90 game
tables and 850 slot machines surrounding a multistory Dale Chihuly glass sculpture of the
sun. Even if you don't gamble, it's worth a walk-through just to get a sense of its vast size.
