About

On quai des États-Unis, at number 57, where the Promenade des Anglais runs along the sea toward the Port, Waka Bar is one of Nice's most original nocturnal addresses. Its Hawaii-Los Angeles décor, bamboo, tropical neons, palms, creates a delightful contrast with the Mediterranean visible from the upper floor, whose terrace directly overlooks Nice's pebbles.

The concept is simple and effective: a bar with renowned cocktails, a dancefloor with DJ every evening from 10pm, and a festive atmosphere mixing international tourists and locals in a relaxed ambiance. The upper floor view over the Mediterranean at sunset, then over the quay lights at night, is a strong distinctive element.

Visitor reviews

Areas for improvement: Long queues in high season are mentioned in many reviews, early arrival recommended. Drink prices are at the higher end. Very young audience (18-25) may not suit everyone.
