From Aruba to Zynk, Fat Ox to Fitzies, Havana to Banana Joe's, it would be the wisdom of a fool to single out any of the 30-or-so high-spirited Town Centre pubs and clubs, starting from Whitley Road, lining both sides of South Parade's party strip and so on along the Prom. Or if it's an atmosphere less vibrant you're after where, rather than dive in among the scantily-clad, you can gentle over a pint with a pickled egg and a packet of tooth-loosening pork scratchings, there's plenty of that too. Almost every bar, pub and club listed is a member of the Whitley Bay Pubwatch Scheme. There is a strong partnership in the resort between the local council, bar owners, hoteliers and Northumbria Police, and visitors are urged to enjoy themselves but be good!
