All your life you dreamed of taking a vacation and suddenly it’s almost time! Now, the pressure to get the most out of it. We all have different ideas about vacations. And, this will be a special one. You have to realize your own special needs and desires and incorporate all of these into a well-structured fulfillment time.
Think Jamaican. It has a variety of beaches to choose from. Just know what you want and where to find it. Jamaican is the answer. Jamaica has beaches that feature the traditional joys of pristine white sand and blue, blue water, but also the kind of rough and rugged beaches. The latter are great if you don’t like crowds. Some people go to Jamaica for the crowds because they like the active social scene.
A great example is Doctor’s Cave Beach, in Montego Bay. This is known as a classic Caribbean vacation beach. It is about five kilometers long and is covered by a fine white sand beach bordering clear and fresh waters. It is likely to be crowded. Very popular. Another example is Cornwell Beach. Known for its beautiful white sand. It is part of Montego Bay.
An example of Jamaica’s rough beaches is Negril, where some of the wildest and most untouched areas by the sea can be found. Look out for rugged cliffs, incredible beauty, and plenty of solitude, a favorite of naturalists around the world. Another rough beach is Crane Beach, next to Black River, which stands out for the naturalness of its surroundings.
If you have a family, especially with small children, there are several beaches in Jamaica. These are known for their calm waters that lack the strong currents and undertows found in other areas, making swimming safer for children. Some of the best are Walter Fletcher Beach in Montego Bay, San San Beach in Port Antonio, Blue Lagoon Beach, which is also in Port Antonio, and Dunn’s River Beach, located in Ocho Rios, quite close to the famous waterfalls.
For the surfer in the family, consider Boston Beach, where it’s easy to rent surf equipment. And the beaches of Long Bay offer the most consistent waves in Jamaica. For adventure, try Treasure Beach. But, while adventurous for the surfer, the undercurrent can be strong.
And those in search of beaches that combine the joys of sun, sand, and surf with an active social scene or party scene will certainly enjoy Frenchman’s Cove in Port Antonio. Seven Mile Beach in Negril is considered a favorite spot.
Jamaica is quite possibly your answer. Jamaica is a lovely island with some 200 miles of beaches. There are beaches for everyone, from tranquil, natural surroundings to pristine white sands and full resort services, from beaches perfect for active water sports to known for their active social scene. A little planning will help you choose the best Jamaican beach for you. Study all the alternatives and make your choice wisely. And, wherever you decide to go… have a great vacation.
