Port Aransas Nightlife

Port A probably has more bars and nightclubs per full-time resident that just about any where else--except maybe Cabo San Lucas. Here is a short list of our favorites.
  • Sharkey's - 1023 Hwy 361, across from the Mariner Inn. Sharkey's is a favorite of the spring-break crowd and those looking to dance and watch people.  You can enjoy burgers, hot dogs, and other "bar" food here.  During the peak season, there's almost always live music and a good time to be had.  In the winter, the Medicare band plays on Friday night and entertains the crowd with oldies, swing, polka, and other favorites of our beloved Winter Texans. Open 10am-2am everyday.
  • Lovett's Bar - 315 S. Alister in Alister Square. Enjoy the large screen TV, live music, Texas Hold ‘Em Poker and Pool.  Lovett’s is a “True Texas Bar”. Open 7 days a week from noon till 2 a.m.
