Havana Club

Ohrid

LoginSave

Popular nightclub right by Ohrid's harbour. During the summer months it opens nightly and is normally standing-room only, with DJs from all over the Balkans coming to play; expect to queue to get in as it's the only place in town open this late. Entrance is around the back and the club is on the 2nd floor.

Note that the massive sign on the building says 'Cuba Libre' but this is actually Havana Club – Cuba Libre is the parent company and is the name of its sister beach bar, down the coast west of Ohrid town centre.
