The China Pearl is pretty much the only nightlife that exists on Friday Harbor. It’s a little scary at first but then you learn to love it. Locals mixed with whatever band is playing (my favorite was Badd Dogg Bone Society… they even came with a plastic bone that you could dance with, and let you sing on stage with them) are great… but last time I was there they even pulled out some belly dancers. Throw in some Maker’s Mark and darts, and the night is complete.
