Best Places To Meet Girls In Caracas & Dating Guide
If you are looking for the best places to meet girls in Caracas with a dating guide then we have you fully covered. It won’t take long to break down all of the best spots to pick up single women in your area and also mention some of the best places to go on a date night.
We always like to begin with the nightlife, once trying to hook up after dark is broken down we will move on to meeting single Caracas girls during the day or how you can use online dating sites which might be your safest option here. Local date night ideas and things to do at any time will also be discussed.
Towards the end of the post we will give some travel tips and talk about safety. Even if you have experience traveling in Latin America you need to be on even higher guard here.
Nightclubs & Pick Up Bars
In these current ADD times a lot of guys will only care about a list of nightclubs and singles bars to pick up Caracas girls so here it is:
The main area for singles nightlife is going to be Las Mercedes particularly around Calle Madrid, this is where you will find many of the top nightclubs, pick up bars, and nice restaurants for a date night. It is also a relatively safe area of town so try to get a room near here if you hope to hook up on your trip.
Other safe areas with OK nightlife that aren’t too far away would be El Rosal in Chacao and La Castellana. According to a recent lengthy comment we got that seems very reliable Chacao may be your go to spot, particularly the districts of Los Palos Grandes, La Castellana, and Altamira.
Trying to pick up girls in the Caracas singles nightlife can be a tough task, not necessarily because the women in your area are hard to get laid with, but going out after dark is not the safest thing to do. You don’t see many people walking around once the sun goes down, and getting a taxi to stop for you may not be easy. Get a centrally located spot and keep your wits about you at all times.
This is not going to be easy either, everyone here knows the streets are dangerous places and if a stranger approaches them it may not go well. Now if you are a gringo who doesn’t look threatening you might have a shot, but keep some distance and don’t overstep your bounds.
If you want to try this outdoors Las Mercedes should work, as could Sabana Grande, Plaza de Francia, and you should see some single women near you around the Caracas Cathedral. A safer option would be to try and meet girls at malls and shopping districts like:
Centro Ciudad Comercial Tamanaco
Sambil
Tolón Fashion Mall
City Market Shopping Mall
Centro San Ignacio
Chat With Girls Online
When foreign men travel there are usually going to be some positives and negatives when it comes to dating and trying to hook up. Let’s start with the positive, just the mere fact that you are different will make plenty of single women curious about you.
That curiosity can easily lead to more dates, and more dates means more chances to get laid. But there is a flip side to this equation, the language barrier can be tough and don’t expect many Venezuelan women in your area to speak English well, if at all. Local guys do have their own advantages.
On top of that everyone assumes gringos are rich and given the current economic situation here expect to be attracting more gold diggers and undercover prostitutes than you may like. Overall the trade offs are a positive, but arriving in a new city and learning the local dating and hook up customs can take some time.
On a trip you may not have time to learn, that is where Latin American Cupid comes into play. This is a massive dating site that is very popular all over this part of the world, in fact it has the most female users of any dating site in Venezuela.
There are plenty of single girls in Caracas using it to meet men, and quite a few of them have an interest in dating foreign men. Being able to contact so many women in a short amount of time will definitely increase your chances of getting laid, remember dating is always a numbers game.
At this point you are fully caught up on the best ways to meet singles near you and it is time to pivot to our Caracas dating guide. Once again the Las Mercedes area will be the prime area of town to take your girl out.
Any of these romantic restaurants or cocktail bars could do the trick:
BartenderOn at Av Francisco de Miranda con calle San Ignacio de Loyola
Day Date Ideas
Getting out to enjoy a sunny day is always advisable if you can. Here are some good parks to take advantage of nice weather outdoors together:
Parque del Este
Los Caobos Park
El Laguito
El Avila National Park
Ride the teleferico cable car up to the top of Avila and get some amazing views. Angel Falls isn’t exactly in the city but is worth traveling to. If you want to walk around the city Plaza de Francia and Sabana Grande are cool areas to see, but don’t flash cash or hold your new iPhone loosely.
For some more sophistication on your date during the day try:
Museo de Bellas Artes
El Museo Histórico Militar de Caracas
National Art Gallery
Museum of Contemporary Art
If you meet an awesome girl and want to take her away for a weekend to somewhere she has never been try out La Paz. Or if you want a romantic weekend going back and forth from the beach to the bed try Margarita Island.
Tips For Tourists & Expats
Well, now we get to the elephant in the room. Safety is obviously a major issue for anyone visiting Venezuela. You definitely need to be on your A game throughout your whole trip.
Don’t trust strangers, don’t walk around after dark, get a hotel in one of the safe areas of the city, and if anyone tries to rob you just hand over whatever you have on you. Generally in this section we would put a link to the current currency exchange, but with the economic situation here there really is no point.
According to most the best thing you can do is bring US dollars with you and trade them when you arrive. Obviously this can put you in some risky situations, we suggest you spend some time researching online before you come so that you know of the safest way to do this. There is a really good comment by a reader named Tom below that seems quite reliable with very relevant info as of mid 2021 that you should probably read.
When it comes to dating and hooking up with Caracas girls near you there will be some true beauties around. There will also be plenty of gold diggers and prostitutes but given the economic situation you can’t really blame them for that.
Definitely expect to pay for everything, and don’t be surprised if they ask for money at some point. Too be fair they probably do need it. One last thing, improve your Spanish if you want to hook up with the hottest girls here.
Enjoy Dating Caracas Girls
That is all the info we have but we always like to learn more. If you have any first-hand experience here and want to add your thoughts please let us know about them in the comments.
Don’t forget to start chatting with single women near you on Latin American Cupid before you come. That can be a safe and easy way to find ladies who want to hook up without having to go out in the sketchy nightlife.
That wraps up our best places to meet girls in Caracas with our dating guide, enjoy yourself.

As someone born in Caracas I must say that, despite being a quite impressive job, some of the suggested areas have become very dangerous and the local currency (in cash) has practically disappeared.
For the sake of this glorious website I’ll chip in my two cents:
– Rule 1 thou shall prepare your arrival: Before landing in Venezuela you need to arrange/pay your transport to the hotel and find a dealer who, once you reach your hotel, can hand you cash dollars (currently accepted everywhere since there is a local currency cash shortage!). The soldiers and customs officers at the airport are desperate to bully out of their cash anyone who arrives, so landing at Maiquetia with loads of cash is a big no.
– Rule 2 thou shall know Mordor’s borders: The main difference between the first world and the third world is that the former has few dangerous spots, while the third world only has a few safe havens. While Las Mercedes, a neighborhood in the Baruta municipality, was the party district long time ago, nowdays it has become very dangerous. The only municipality that’s currently “kinda” safe is Chacao (the richest place in all the country) and you should be looking to stay or move only in these three districts: Los Palos Grandes, La Castellana, Altamira. Don’t fall for any temptations, desist! Anywhere outside Chacao you find yourself at the mercy of other municipalities police corps, who are heavily underpaid and eager to find any excuse to extort you! On the bright side, being in the richest municipality increases your odds of meeting the best educated women that the country can produce (still very disappointing in terms of maturity) and decreases your chances of meeting undercover hookers and gold diggers.
– Rule 3 thou shall not trust anyone: while there is honest people in the country, 70% of the population is below the poverty threshold and hungry people is extremely dangerous. Most starving people will not hesitate to send you in the direction of some gangster or corrupt cop who will make your life miserable (kidnap you and ask your family for a ransom, extort you, send you to prison for some crappy reason… you get the point), so trusting anyone, with 70% odds against, is quite foolish. Unless they invite you to their home (accepting such invitations is already dangerous) and you see them floating in a pile of gold, you might better disclose as little as possible about your incomes or your movements around the city.
– Rule 4 thou shall become an Oracle: predicting and anticipating will prove useful beyond avoiding the rampant crime. In a poor country, where superficiality reigns almost undisputed, most women think their only shot at improving their life is becoming so beautiful that they will be able to pick up a rich guy. This attitude raises the bar for all women (the educated ones have a fierce competition to face) and obviously no woman will go through all this drama and tensions for anything but prince who is able to fullfil every single demand and who is able to anticipate all of her needs. Is the game worth it? Only for a little while, and it’s more worthy if it is with a woman from the western side of the city 😉
If you find yourself playing a different game then you probably found a keeper.
Pro tips:
1. An immaginary friend is quite useful to pin him every rude statement you need to make.
“Wan’t me to join you at La Candelaria district? Sorry honey, Kenny told me it is a very dangerous place since he had a life threatning experience there. Why don’t you join me in a more private settting at a nice restaurant I want to try with you?”
2. Find a pack. Ever since cime rates rose most families rather have parties at their places than staying out on the streets. Decent ones will surely invite you to stay over rather than send you off in the middle of the night and perhaps they might even cook you some delicious arepas for breakfast.
3. The best bets for a “safe” night game are the bar el Leon and the shopping mall San Ignacio, which are both located at la Castellana district. Once you’re commited to a woman, Los Palos Grandes district is your best shot for having nice intimate dinners in lovely restaurants or have a walk if you really can’t help defying the gods.
4. Day game is pretty much limited. Asides from your regular cashier, waitress or shop assistant (at least you know for sure they’re hard working folks), you could adventure yourself with the Aruflo park, la Estancia park or Los Palos Grandes square. While Parque del Este, Plaza la Castellana, or Plaza Francia are not extremely dangerous, there could be drug dealers or petty thieves. If you can’t help yourself, better walk them with a local apache on your side.
