Jamaica's Beaches
Written by Vacation Idea.com Travel Editors.
Jamaica is known for its relaxed atmosphere, plenty of sunshine and, of course, its white-sand beaches.
One of the most famous, the Seven Mile Beach in Negril, is perfect for swimming and snorkeling. Since it is protected by a reef, it offers calm waters. Hotels in the area include the Rockhouse Hotel and Caves Resort, popular with honeymooners.
Where the Dunn's River Falls meet the sea, in Ocho Rios, lies a beautiful beach with lush tropical plants as a backdrop. Just east of Ocho Rios is Reggae Vibes Beach with secluded areas where one can come across nesting turtles.
James Bond Beach, 20 minutes from Ocho Rios, offers clear waters and beautiful views of the St. Mary mountains.
Shanshy Beach Complex, located to the west of Port Antonio, is divided into two parts by a fence. On one side lie huts belonging to local fishermen. The other side of the beach, with its white sands and shallow areas, is great for sunning and swimming.
