INNER HARBOR. Located in the tourist and local gathering place that is Inner Harbor, it's impossible to miss this wild club thanks to its blazing neon lights and bass-heavy sound system, both noticeable for hundreds of yards in every direction. Once inside, enjoy a tropical drink from the always-packed bar or grab a beer from one of the famous bikini-clad "beer girls." Then head for the dance floor, which has several raised platforms that let brave souls and exhibitionists strut their stuff in full view of the crowd. Dance and Top 40 rule the DJ booth. If dancing isn't your thing, play darts or pool, or even grab a spot in the corner to watch ESPN.
