On the banks of the Guadalquivir, you’ll find many leisure areas to enjoy, both day and night. The river brings a vibrant feeling, a special joy, to the terraces and nearby streets.
You’ve seen the Guadalquivir throughout the day, all the lights that define and ennoble it as the narrative axis of Seville. Now at night, you need to discover all the energy the river brings to the city: its bars and nightclubs on the riverbanks and the neighbouring district of Arenal.
The New York Pier (Muelle de Nueva York) is an ideal place to enjoy the river on foot, where you can even lie in a hammock while enjoying a fruit cocktail.
The Lonja del Barranco Market, next to the river, is a beautiful piece of engineering from the 19th century, which has revealed itself as a must-see destination in Seville to enjoy a fantastic gourmet experience.
Getting together to have a drink is a custom rooted in Seville. And a splendid example of that collective oy can be seen in the Paseo de Colón and its fashionable spots.
A special breeze flows through the nights of this area of Seville.

The Arenal is also an area where there are numerous walking areas that close late at night. On Calle Arfe and other nearby streets, you can enjoy the atmosphere almost any time of the day.
The “First Sailing around the World” Space is a reference center to learn about the maritime history of Seville around the Arenal - a fishing district that, starting from the 16th to the 18th century, lived to the rhythm of the Indian fleets’ activity that, cyclically, left and reached its river banks-, through the greatest maritime adventure the city has ever starred in: the First Sailing around the World (1519-1522).
In its exhibition center, visitors will dive deeper into this first planet circumnavigation, and culminate their discovery experience, by getting on board of the imposing life-size reproduction of the vessel, that starred in this admirable expedition: the Nao Victoria 500.
Come on board!
