You can be with your friend/boyfriend male in a restaurant, dance with him, hold hands. All the above is no problem.

Wanna dance and drink? No problem. Not sure about the karaoke though but there are several nightclubs.

Women can and do smoke in cafes, nightclubs, pubs, whatever.

What do you mean by bar happenings? Some clubs have special nights; ladies' night, dance competition, etc.

You can swim and drive,too, if you so wish.

Enjoy your time.
