What to do in Jamaica
Other than just chilling on the beach or by the pool, Jamaica has plenty to offer. Explore the beautiful scenery on a day tour taking in places such as Dunn’s River Falls and the Blue Mountains, soak up the atmosphere in Negril and Montego Bay, or take to the waters with a boat trip or the host of water sports available.
Where to stay in Jamaica
Most hotel options in Jamaica tend to be along the North Coast of the island, and with the airport at Montego Bay being the main gateway the West Coast is also popular. Many hotels are All Inclusive but Bed & Breakfast options work well in the main resort areas. Standards vary from cheap & cheerful local options to internationally renowned properties.
Holiday ideas to Jamaica
Jamaica is perfect for a week or two of pure relaxation, plus it’s possible to combine the island with other destinations, such as New York, Miami and San Francisco. Holidays here are fairly flexible, so most things are possible!
Jamaica has captivated travellers for centuries. Christopher Columbus, the first European to set foot on the island, dubbed it ‘the fairest land that eyes have beheld’, and it subsequently became a scenic jewel in colonial crowns. Visitors love Jamaica for its natural beauty – the cool peaks of the Blue Mountains; mile after mile of lush cane fields; picturesque rum estates; rivers and waterfalls; caves, beaches and lagoons.
