Overview |
Negril illustrates itself as the first city of “fun in the sun” in Jamaica. Located northwest of the island, 50 miles west of Montego Bay, Negril is the seaside resort famous for its mass tourism and its many resorts. It rises quickly, indeed, until now become one of the most beautiful towns in Jamaica, but remains more placid than any other. You will meet people with the sculptors who exhibit their works on the beach and sellers of “jerk chicken” and organic food along the streets to welcome you with a profusion and great kindness. Its beaches are among the most beautiful of the island and the atmosphere that prevails will lead you in the "Zen attitude"... or perhaps omelets with mushrooms that are on the menu of restaurants... to find the beach (7 km long) absolutely stunning. Visit the tourist market beside the town which is a great place to buy some souvenirs with a bargain. Negril is also home to the first protected natural area of Jamaica. |
