• If you want to stroke the hand of Lady Luck, then head for the south side of the island. Gambling is legal only on the Dutch side with 9 casinos, including Rouge et Noir, Coliseum, Atlantis and Lightning. However, the largest is Casino Royale at the Maho Beach Hotel.
  • The Studio 7 discothèque at Grand Casino in Mullet Bay is a popular place to hang out with locals and dance to the latest hits. It starts late, so head to the infamous Cheri's Bar first, only a five-minute walk from the club, for a few drinks and friendly conversation. Other hotspots are the News Music Cafe, Greenhouse, Indiana Beach and Amnesia.
  • The sidesplitting Comedy Club has stand-up comedians everyday except Monday nights.
  • Most of the comedians are from HBO or Carsons, and bring in large crowds. Most resorts have live performances for guests and visitors, such as limbo dancing, fire-eating entertainers and live music.
  • In Philipsburg, The News is favored for dancing and provides live concerts every other night. Another somewhat offbeat option is the AXUM Jazz Café, which offers an eclectic selection of entertainment, such as live jazz and reggae music, dramatic presentations and poetry readings. The cafe also serves as a gallery for the Caribbean's finest contemporary artists to display their works of art.
  • Sun Star Cruises, a new party and dinner cruise boat, offers Sunset Dinner Cruises, Moonlight Party Cruises and Special Custom Charters.
