I went with a couple buddies to Panama City PC for a long weekend a few weeks back. I know Costa Rica gets a lot of love in Central America but I would actually put Panama up against it for mongering purposes i. I would have been bored to death going alone because again, not a lot to do in the daytime. The food is mediocre, day game is difficult without knowing Spanish, beaches are 1.
You can sit at the restaurant, have some overpriced food and drinks, and watch ships come in and out of the locks. If you want a longer trip, you can extend to days and head to Bocas del Toro up north on the Costa Rica border.
Tons of beaches but smaller nightlife. Less mongering here but younger gringas, Canadians, and European women that you can fuck in your hotel or their hostels. But be warned, heavy twatpacker presence here. I used 1 Balboa coins for tips and stuck to using USD or credit card to pay for everything.
So why is the USD currency circulation so important? Prostitution is legal in Panama and the country allows for work visas that last anywhere from a week or two to a couple months. One of the girls I talked to said the number of visas has been coming down a bit, which may actually be a positive as it filters out the less attractive women i. A local also told me that Panamanians LOVE American gringos we basically built their entire economy with the Canal but tend to hate Venezuelans and Colombians who come into the country to work pros and otherwise , so expect the locals to treat you well.
Finally, the most important part: where to stay and monger, and how much. Check out Latin America Cupid. If you see some girls you like, then you can upgrade for a small fee to message unlimited girls. Most women speak basic English. There was no guest fee and it was super convenientβ¦just pick a girl and take her right up to your room.
