![The Vibrant Nightlife of Hersonissos](https://blog.alexander-beach.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/02/alexander-beach-hersonissos-1200x797.jpg)
If you visit Hersonissos by day, you’ll notice tourists walking around, sitting in seafront tavernas and cafes, or shopping. Yet the town keeps an appearance of calm and tranquility. But, of course, things change around sunset when the first beats fill the air: it’s time for techno, house, and trance music aficionados to flock to the resort’s popular clubs and bars.
Sure thing, Hersonissos’ nightlife is not solely focused on techno and trance. Clubbers will find other styles, too, including rock, pop, disco, Greek music, and even karaoke. There are also beach clubs that offer day pool parties and drinks galore.
You should know that the city’s vibrant nightlife takes place in and around Liménas Chersónissou (Port of Hersonissos) – the seaside resort of Hersonissos. The other part of Hersonissos is inland and is called Ano Chersónissos (Upper Hersonissos), which is quaint: you will not find clubs here, but traditional tavernas, some offering live Cretan music occasionally.
Here are seven of Hersonissos’s trendiest clubs and bars if you want to party in a youthful, vibrant atmosphere.
Starbeach Party & Bungy Jump

Join them for their daily Good Vibes party, featuring musicians, DJs, dancers, and guests partying into the sunset. They also host “The Famous Beach Party” every Saturday in July and August. And, if you are into extreme sports, you can try bungy jumping.
