Panama City, Panama in December

Panama City, Panama in December

Hello all,

Long time reader, first time poster. Possibly going to Panama for a work related function in early December and wondering what kind of trouble I can get into. I may be going solo or possibly with another guy from my office. I would say my game is on the intermediate level and I have absolutely no problem opening any chick after a few beers. Thinking of staying around 4 or 5 nights at the Trump Ocean Club (its a tax write-off since its work). Would greatly appreciate any tips on where to go out and suggestions. I will probably be working between the hours of 8am and 1pm most days and looking to hit the cafe's for late lunches most days then an afternoon siesta. Will probably try to squeeze in a bit of golf or fishing as well.

Mike

From the info I gathered when I was planning on going to Panama last yr (decided to scratch due to time constraints) most of the main night life is centered around street Calle Uruguay / Zona Viva. Id be sure to hit up girls on Couchsurfing and some dating sites to get more info about other hot spots off the beaten track.

Panama City, Panama in December

spent a month there in 09, didn't like it all that much.

main areas to party

Calle Uruguay

Zona Viva off the Amador Causeway

and somewhat in Casco Viejo.

The first two have some serious talent running around in them but being a gringo will help you zero. Being solo...no bueno. No social proof....also no bueno. I had all three going against me so it was a struggle to find anyone interested in talking to me.

I did an assload of research of where to go a list of bars recommended by expats living there the works. It was completely worthless info.

For Calle Uruguay many places have massive lists to get in for free, if you're not on the list you pay to get in and everyone knows you had to pay bc they don't recognize you. There is a karaoke bar (Starlight i think was the one i went to) that was easier to mingle around in than most places in Panama City (typical Latin scene huge tables for groups not set up for mingling dudes trying to get laid)

The casino bars will have salsa lessons sometime at night wednesday and tuesday i think, check online. Decent place to learn to dance and meet girls (you will need to know some salsa). The one i went to was in a casino in the MultiCentro Mall called Majestic. They also have Texas hold 'em at that casino if your interested. It was my favorit casino i went to, i don't think Trump was completed yet when i was there.

Fiesta Casino had the best salsa scene.

in the actual casinos are the cheapest places to drink

Casco Viejo has some places to go to but i could not find them, some of the area is safe some is very unsafe, you will know which is which.

TGI Friday is actually good there also in the MultiCentro mall. They have 80's videos playing on TV but salsa music playing. So you see Duran Duran and hear salsa and merengue...the best of both worlds. People we eat drink and dance there.

Very possible there is some hidden mecca to get laid there but i didn't find it.

Lots of hookers in the casino most from Colombia. Locals hate Colombians.

Modern city for Latin America, good fishing possibilites for salt water or you can do a peacock fishing in the panama canal lake Gatun. See the Canal it's worth it. Also a decent jungle park just north of the city that has good views of Panama City.

The black men and women there seemed to be the friendliest people.

That's all i can think of for now. Best of luck to you.
