I'm going to Asmara in January. Any suggestion?
I frequent Eritrea since a couple of years and will be there in January again.
Since the UN is there, the place changed completely. Most places are closed. Eritreans like the girlfriend thing, since the like to get out of the place. So don't promise to much.
There is a place called Warza, nice for the weekends. There is a local disco (very crwoded with life band). Picked up girls from there.
In the place called Shamrock, I had a couple of times very nice experiences with girls. Last time was dumb.
One place where you always find some girls is the Green Pub in Intercontinental. Those sitting on the bences at the entrance are all for hire. Prices are high and girls got picky. Was picking up already two girls working there as servants (they finish at 3am) put you can not take them to the room in Intercon. That however was before the UN came.
Other local bars are in Hotel SunShine (almost too local, but don't be afraid, just offer a drink) or in Hotel Ambassador. In both hotels there is no problem to take the girls to the room. The Ambassador was however better a couple of years ago. Hygiene is not that good. Waiters can be of help to approach girls who do speak little English.
There is no street action, since controls are very thight.
Asmara is a bar city. All people send always in the coffee bars and in the night drink there beer and cheap whisky. Some have sometimes local stars, but normally very bad quality.
If somebody needs more info, just PM me or ask.
This is my last day in Eritrea.
Nothing special to add to previous posts, I only can suggest some place to go in Massawa.
After 10 PM is plenty girls in the bar/restaurant Banuna. Starting from 12 you can go in the roof of the hotel torino. There is a disco and ther is some action into.
In the saturday is possible to find girls in the disco of the hotel Gurgussum beach.
Dear Friends,
I am visiting Eriteria this week and would love to have some insight on the party scene out there..
Some tips on how to score and where to find would be great!
If any of the fellow punters are around there on 2/3/4 may may be we can hook up for some drinks.
Pls let me know.
Ciao
Awesome
Can't forget this hell hole.
Enjoy!
Wow, she's quite a hottie, mooky - where did you meet her? Can't have been too much of a hell hole with chicks like that loving your cock!
I'm going out to Saudi Arabia long term in a few months, and I was wondering whether anyone knows details of Red Sea ferries between Saudi and Eritrea - how long they take, whether there are any that you can drive onto, and the immigration requirements. I'm a British passport holder - would I need to sod about getting a visa or do you get one upon arrival?
I take it Eritrean girls are similar to Ethiopians? It'd be great to find some more details about this place - like are there many white men there? Do girls flock over white guys? Is there a definite pro/non-pro divide, or is the mongering out there based more around good time amateur/semi-pro girls, students and the like, who just want to go out and have fun with a foreigner? And with its proximity to the Arab world, is it an Islamic country (hope not!!)
Cheers guys,
Chris

I have never been to Africa, but I am an expert on East Africans and especially Ethiopians and Eritreans. Firstly, if your white in Eritrea then they automatically suspect that you have money. And women will be women so they will flock to you. It will not be hard to find a girl. I say go to an upscale club by yourself and a nice girl will make herself readily available for you. She may not even be a working girl, but will see an opportunity and go for it. To her, you could give her more money in one night than she may make in 3 months working.
Have fun and be safe.
Guys:
I have not been to Asmara since the UN arrived, so my information may be out of date. However, I spent a lot of time there from '99 through 2000 and I always had a great time. My favorite place was a very small hotel just down the road from the Interncon, and on the same side of the street. The restaurant there was full of girls every night, and the place also had an outside disco with plenty of women.
The E obviously does not know Eritrea all that well. These are proud people, and they don't "flock" to anyone. However, a little persistence, a few drinks and about an hour of conversation went a long way when I was there, and I rarely spent a night alone. I also got lucky a couple of times just walking up Indepence Road or Boulevard or whatever between 10 and 11 PM. Not with pros, but with women I managed to speak with on the street, and with whom I had a drink or two.

Goodenough
I believe you were being a little hard on me concerning my comments. Maybe "flock' wasn't a good choice of words. Your experiences basically mirror what I previously stated.
Hello everyone!
My question to experienced folks:
I've just got a job offer from one of NGOs to work in Asmara for a couple of years. Does it make any sence accepting this position, if one of my major requirements is an fairly easy access and sufficient abundance of pretty and ready do please a single white man young ladies?
Thanks in advance!
Canuck:
I would go for it. First, Asmara is a very attractive, albeit a small city, with lots of outdoor Italian-style coffee shops, leafy streets and European architecture. Second, the Eritreans are very professional, a pleasure to work with, totally honest, and committed to their jobs. Corruption is practically non-existent. Third, the girls are spectacular, and they are readily available, but a trifle harder to find than in Addis. However, there are enough discos, bars, and small lounges that act as magnets for women looking for guys, that I never had a problem there. Finally, the place is really safe for foreigners. You can walk the streets at any hour and never be hassled. And I almost forget to mention that the cost of things is so inexpensive that a foreign salary goes a very long way.
Let us know what you decide.

Well, gentleman, this is not paradise like Ethiopia.
Peoples are proud (even to much), to many UN guys. According me taste girls in Ethiopia were nicer.
Generally in Asmara it is not so easy. Some girls even told me that they are not interested in foreigners at all. Try Hollywood bar next to Mocambo night club.
In town of Karen is nothing.
Much better situation is in Massawa. In Banuna restaurant are each day around 30 girls (some quite nice). Some are there already from 7 pm, but majority from 9 pm. From 11,30 pm or sometimes around 1 am they move to the disco in hotel Torino. Price of girl 10 to 15 USD. Ask them first if they have ID. Without ID (some do not have it) they cannot go in your hotel and you should go with the girls in some strange shop or flat. That is not so recommendable.
It is amazing trip to take girl on Green Island with. You will be there alone for fucking, swimming, nice snorkeling, amazing beach, boat from Dalak hotel is 12 USD.
Concerning traveling: Now you can go only to Asmara, Massawa and Karen. To go to any other place you need special permit that is issued by Ministry of Tourism opposite Asmara Cathedral. You can get only ONE permit per your visit.
When I wrote your posting I didn't know what happens with you in Eritrea. I stay for several times in Eritrea and believe me I have absolutly no problems to find a nice girl. You have to go to Aiba near beside Interconti at 10 pm. There you can check the girls before they go to Interconti at 11.30pm. After 11.30 pm you have to go to Green Pub in Interconti. A lot of girls are sitting on the benches. These girls are oll for hire. You also can go to Warsa after 11.30 pm. It's also very easy to get a nice girl there. The prices are maybe 300 Nakfa means 15 Euro.
So next time I wish you a good fishing.

You're right, but note that Berhe Aiba is still under control of police due to former problems with the club, so you'd better leave one after the other (I was checked though we paid attention) and Green Pub at Interconti is open only Wednesday, Friday, Saturday.
Warsa Club is ok as a hunting spot but not before 1 a.m., the other disco, Shamrock, there's only few action
