It’s hard to keep a secret like El Boca Boca, but young and lively locals far outnumber the handful of outsiders who manage to find this buzzy social hub of Perpignan. Because it’s favoured by natives, it stays open all year round (unlike the summer dance clubs in the nearby coastal resorts, which shut down from autumn

until early spring). As you can guess from the name, Latin beats and beverages predominate. The door policy is relaxed, and even in autumn the outdoor garden is a nice place to chill. Don’t even think of getting here before midnight.
