Belize City's more sophisticated, air-conditioned bars are
found in the most expensive establishments, and there aren't many of
those. At the lowest end of the scale are dimly lit dives,
effectively men-only, where, though there's the possibility that
you'll be offered drugs or be robbed, it's more likely that you'll
have a thoroughly enjoyable time amongst easy-going, hard-drinking
locals. There are several places between the two extremes, some of
them in restaurants and hotels - or try the early-closing Marlins
restaurant and Nu Fenders, a bar on the corner of Queen and
Handyside streets.
Nightlife,
though not as wild as it used to be, is becoming more reliable, and
the quality of live bands is improving all the time. The Radisson
Fort George and the Bellevue hold regular dances or
discos, with live music often preceded by a Friday evening
happy hour.

At Planet Hollywood (not part of the chain)
on the corner of Queen and Handyside streets there's live punta
and reggae, while Nerie's Restaurant hosts local bands
upstairs on Friday evenings. A bit further afield the Lumba Yard
Bar, on the riverbank just out of town on the Northern Highway,
hosts the country's top bands on Friday and Saturday evenings.
