Top Latin Dance Clubs In South Florida

Miami and South Florida have Caribbean rhythms flowing on the roads, over the airwaves and at night when these five clubs open their doors playing salsa, merengue, bachata and reggaeton. Music makes the world go round, and the Hispanic influence is no more apparent in South Florida than when at a night club--seeing everyone moving beautifully and smiling, laughing and enjoying themselves. Any tourist wishing to go sight-seeing in Miami should attend any of these clubs which are in great areas of Miami-Dade and Broward Counties.

Spice Resto-Lounge
1934 Hollywood Blvd.
Hollywood, FL 33020
(954) 923-3888
www.spiceresto-lounge.com

Close to the Central Business District in Hollywood, the lounge plays Latin music all night long and encourages customers to move to the beat. The elegant location dazzles with room for everyone and then keeps people there for a long while with choreographed shows, belly dancing, capoeira, samba and a fire show called Xango. It is guaranteed to prevent people from sitting down while at Spice but will make them want to sit down at the end of the night after dancing for so long.

Yuca Restaurant & Lounge
501 Lincoln Road
Miami Beach, FL 33139
(305) 532-9822
www.yuca.com

Since 1989, Yuca Restaurant has occupied the same location in Miami Beach. During the week, it serves customers delicious food, but on Salsa Wednesdays and Fridays, it is only about enjoying the sea air, the tropical breeze and a live DJ. Salsa classes are also offered to anyone who wants to learn and everyone loves to try at least one class. Yuca transports customers into an atmosphere of luxury and elegance with its panoramic windows which overlook Lincoln Road. Anyone who enters will be sad to leave after feeling so welcomed and joyous, dancing with friends.

Avenue D Jazz & Blues Lounge
8 S. Miami Ave.
Miami, FL 33130
(305) 371-4823
www.avenuedjazz.com

The creators of Avenue D have tapped into Miami's past as the lounge's location was once along Flagler & Avenue D in the 1920s. It then became the Burdines department store and the once great name is still written on the entrance doors. Jazz, blues and Latin jazz bands play at Avenue D throughout the month with DJs playing Latin music on specific days. The layout of the establishment is similar to a sultry jazz club with dim lights, a high stage and wood floors. The key is being in the center of Downtown Miami and feeling the mix of the urban landscape with the rhythms from the band.
