The Best Places to Meet Single Women in Belmopan, Belize

Belmopan, the capital of Belize, is one of the newest capital cities in the world. It is located in the Cayo District. Having been constructed with British aid, following the devastation of Hurricane Hattie, the first phase of the new city was completed in 1970. Today it is one of the safest cities in Belize. Lush with flourishing wildlife, exotic plants and animals, and a tropical monsoon climate, the city (which is still relatively new) is definitely a sight to behold! The people there are even more fascinating than the city itself. For those who hope to start dating women in this vibrant city, there are lots of different places where you might start your search for interesting women.

TIP: Meet attractive women from Belize looking for men to date and marry.

A prime example of Belmopan’s diverse wildlife is easily observed at Guanacaste National Park. The park was named after a monolithic Guanacaste tree, which escaped being logged, because its trunk divided into multiple bases, thus reducing its value as timber. Public transportation from any nearby city is available to the national park; and it is open to the public for the majority of the day. A good thing too, as no-one wants to miss out on the scenic landscapes that make up the park. You’ll be sure to walk through pathways lined by rain trees, the mamey sapote, Brazilian fire-tree, and Honduras mahogany. This makes the park a perfect place to encounter other nature lovers. To make a good first impression on your fellow outdoors-man (or outdoors-woman), ask them out about their favourite jogging path; or go ahead and share your own (once you’ve managed to catch your breath, that is!).

The park doesn’t only accommodate joggers, however. Belize's reputation for an extensive biodiversity is also evident in the park's wide range of animals that photographers (and birdwatchers especially) are able to observe. These include the white-tailed deer, jaguarundi, kinkajou, and nine-banded armadillo to name a few! There have also been over one-hundred different bird species recorded, including the Lesson's motmot. If you happen upon another birdwatcher, why not compare journals with your kin? Ask if they like to sketch their findings, show off your own journal; or ask if you can help them find that rare black-faced anttrush they’ve been dying to see. Be careful the two of you don’t wander too far into the woods, though. Legend has it that the forests of Belize is hunting ground for El Sisimito, a massive creature that has no knees, backward-facing feet, and a taste for human flesh! Then again, this might make a good first date for people who enjoy the paranormal or local myths.

If you make it out of the woods, and you’re still in the mood for adventuring, maybe a trip to Actun Tunichil Mukna (or, the Cave of the Crystal Maiden) would keep the coals warm? Not only is the Actun Tuichil cave a hiking and adventure experience, but it also features an element of ancient Mayan archaeology! Prepare to hike through the jungle, cross a flowing river (more than twice), swim into the entrance of the cave, and to follow in the long-forgotten footsteps of ancient Mayan priests. There is little doubt that you’ll be surrounded by the most adventurous of individuals; and with an atmosphere equal parts awe-inspiring and exciting, you might just have the perfect platform to engage in conversation. Besides – if you manage to meet and light a spark with the potential (and always-elusive) ‘One’ – is there any better place to remember the encounter than the ruins of a wondrous, long-lost civilization?

After your expedition, you’ll most likely be famished. And – admittedly – a bit sore. Why not ease those sore legs and remedy that rumbling stomach? A perfect destination to go about doing this, is the A & R Belizean Food Restaurant, a small restaurant where one can get take-out food or sit and eat. Featuring a large variety of Belizean cuisine (one of the most popular being the Belize rice and beans) the A & R is located at the Market Square in the centre of the city. If you’re feeling especially daring, ask someone about their favourite wine (which the A & R readily stocks). No doubt you’ll hear all about Belize’s Cashew and Craboo Wines (which is made from the fermented cashew fruit, and produces a sweet and potent wine that is deceptively mild and impossibly alluring.)

If you’d like to get a better feel for the people (and culture... and food, for that matter) of Belmopan, why not visit The National Agriculture & Trade Show Grounds? The Trade Grounds are the venue for Belize’s premier annual agriculture and trade exposition. It is usually held near the end of April or the beginning of May. The grounds include general display areas (which could be easily described as a rainbow-plethora of exotic goods!), a rodeo, stables, and a main stage area for entertainment; the latter of which will serve you especially well!

If you happen to like music - and if you happen to know how to move to the groove – perhaps join in on dancing to the tune of live, outdoor music? Chances are – if you ask – someone will dance with you; as people at these types of social events tend to be quite open and engaging.

If quiet suits you a bit better, a trip to the Belmopan Public Library is advised. Filled with the scent of ink – home to bookworm and pen monkey alike – the Library offers a place for the more introverted to group together and meet. If you happen to spot a woman who catches the eye (or a book in their hands that manages to do the same), go ahead and approach her, and say hi! That’s really all it takes to meet that someone special.

Though Belmopan has had a bit of a rocky past, the city’s future more than makes up for it. Get out in this exciting city, be daring and brave, and you might just change the trajectory of your own future.
