You’ll be joining the touristy throng at this ever-popular West End institution, but why not? Just for one evening. The drinks menu features empty-your-wallet cocktails and pricey Red Stripes (skip the food): you're paying for the ambience, pool access and the live band. Watch local divers try to outdo each other from the 10m-tall cliffs, or jump yourself.
