Negril is a top-rated destination for beaches and resorts located on the far west end of Jamaica. Since it is only about an hour's drive from Montego Bay, which has one of Jamaica's international airports, it is one of the easier locations to reach. The area offers both large, all-inclusive resorts and smaller, family-run hotels. This area offers great opportunities for activities such as snorkeling, diving and a variety of other water activities like glass-bottom boat excursions. Among its attractions are cliffs with jumping points as high as 40 feet. Rick's Cafe is the world-famous spot where people go to watch the daring cliff jumpers and is an incredibly popular tourist destination.
Negril is still somewhat undeveloped and that's what lends it a certain charm although it's also a reason tourists are mildly harrassed for money by the locals who view any foreigner as rich (and of course by comparison, most of us are). Seven Mile Beach is one of Negril's claims to fame and is home to giant resorts like Couples, Sandals, Beaches, Grand Lido and Hedonism II. Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville chain restaurant and bar and a duty free zone have also sprung up to promote tourism here. The down side is that much of this development has led to adverse environmental effects.

Today turned out to be a whole new experience for me I did something that I have never done on any holiday before or for that matter never done at all but thats partly to do with the fact that London Doesn't have a beach (you'll see what i mean later).
I had a fantastic Morning. Our new friend 'NINJA' took me to a different part of the beach, this was not a beach for tourists but for the locals and If you knew a local then you could go there and live it up - jamaican style with them......

We had just a little more time in Negril before we had to check out of the hotel at noon and be on our way to Treasure Beach. For me that meant one more Jamaican breakfast and a walk down the beach to try and find our friend Kevin whom we'd arranged a ride to Treasure Beach with the night we arrived at the beach. It was the last chance to get some beautiful shots of Seven Mile Beach and I took full advantage of it. A short distance from the Bar B Barn I met my first distraction. I'll have to ...

Love the place, seven miles of white sand everything on the beach, restaurants, parties etc...if you're not on the strip you're in the wrong place...the west end is awful and crappy, the only thing there is Ricks and Xtabi..ok Negril is being ruined by the beach bums harrassing the tourists, but just learn to say no with conviction and they'll go away, then enjoy the sun the beach, the music and maybe a little love...IRIE ONE LOVE :-)

Our hairy trip into Negril prefaced a wonderful, relaxing 10 day stay. The non-routine was to get up (eventually) , swim, eat, read, swim, read, drink, swim and then plan an eating or music (or both) interlude for the evening. The water was that wonderful carribean aquamarine colour and a perfect swimming temperature. The beach entertainment was to see what came along on sale through the day. It ranged from coconut, joooooce, cigarettes, patties, thongs (flip flop...
