Santa Cruz Dance Clubs
Blue Lagoon
923 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz, California; Tel. 831.423.7117
Goth rock, hip hop, '80s music and an array of sounds from local bands draw a different crowd to the Blue's two-room-wide dance floor nearly every night. Of course the dirt-cheap drinks—$1 Pabst on Wednesdays and $1 well drinks on Tuesdays—will get just about anyone out to this (not really) gay bar. The atmosphere screams for patrons of all sexual inclinations to up and shake their moneymaker.
Club Dakota
1209 Pacific Ave., Santa Cruz, California; Tel. 831.454.9030
The friendly staff here are always ready to help the diverse patrons of Pacific's Rainbow Flag bar. Known to have a lively and packed dance floor, drag shows, and energetic DJs, Dakota is a happenin' joint with a fresh twist.
