This is the perfect time of year to be thinking of a wonderful holiday on the beautiful island of Jamaica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-embed is-type-video is-provider-youtube wp-block-embed-youtube wp-embed-aspect-16-9 wp-has-aspect-ratio\"><div class=\"wp-block-embed__wrapper\">\n<iframe loading=\"lazy\" title=\"M1llionz x Dexta Daps - Wah Gwan (Official Video)\" width=\"640\" height=\"360\" src=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/embed\/z5oH1e9qBRI?feature=oembed\" frameborder=\"0\" allow=\"accelerometer; autoplay; clipboard-write; encrypted-media; gyroscope; picture-in-picture; web-share\" referrerpolicy=\"strict-origin-when-cross-origin\" allowfullscreen><\/iframe>\n<\/div><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Jamaica has so much to offer it&#8217;s visitors and that&#8217;s why according to the Jamaican Ministry of Tourism 40% of tourists are repeat visitors. Over 4 million visitors a year can&#8217;t be wrong.  The beaches are a magnet, the golden sand and the clear blue sea, but once there, there is so much more to do and see.    Jamaica is the cultural capital of the Caribbean there&#8217;s never a dull moment.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"685\" src=\"https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/or_bc_Ocho-Rios-Bay-Beach05-1024x685.jpg\" alt=\"Ocho Rios Bay Beach Courtesy of Jamaican Tourist Board\" class=\"wp-image-61\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/or_bc_Ocho-Rios-Bay-Beach05-1024x685.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/or_bc_Ocho-Rios-Bay-Beach05-300x201.jpg 300w, https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/or_bc_Ocho-Rios-Bay-Beach05-768x514.jpg 768w, https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/or_bc_Ocho-Rios-Bay-Beach05.jpg 1280w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Ocho Rios Bay Beach<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">In recent years Jamaica has become an increasingly popular destinations for weddings and honeymoons.  The naturally heart-shaped  &#8216;jacuzzi&#8217; at Reach Falls and the sunsets in Negril are the perfect backdrop to your romantic getaway.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not getting married which the best beach?<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">1. Seven Mile Beach (Negril)<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">The island&#8217;s most famous beach. Expect miles of soft white sand, calm turquoise water, beach bars, water sports, and spectacular sunsets. It&#8217;s ideal if you want a classic Caribbean beach experience with plenty of restaurants and nightlife nearby. This is probably the best beach overall.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" src=\"https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/janegril-1024x682.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1666\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/janegril-1024x682.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/janegril-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/janegril-768x512.jpg 768w, https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/janegril-1536x1023.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/janegril-2048x1364.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/janegril-1568x1045.jpg 1568w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Negril Coastline<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">2. Frenchman&#8217;s Cove (Portland)<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Often considered Jamaica&#8217;s most beautiful beach and certainly some of the best scenery overall. A freshwater river flows into the Caribbean Sea, surrounded by lush tropical vegetation. It&#8217;s quieter and more scenic than the popular resort beaches. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">3. Boston Beach (Portland)<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">One of the best surfing beaches in Jamaica and famous for nearby authentic jerk food. Great if you want a more local vibe and some waves. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">4. Winnifred Beach (Near Port Antonio)<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">A beloved public beach popular with locals. Less developed, more authentic, and excellent for snorkeling and relaxing away from the resort crowds.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">5. Treasure Beach (South Coast)<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Not one beach but a series of bays and coves. Think laid-back fishing-village atmosphere, fewer tourists, and a slower pace of life. Great for couples and travellers seeking a quieter Jamaica.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">6. Doctor&#8217;s Cave Beach (Montego Bay)<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Known for exceptionally clear, calm water and excellent swimming and one of the best places to snorkel. Located on Montego Bay&#8217;s Hip Strip, it&#8217;s easy to combine with shopping, dining, and nightlife.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" width=\"1024\" height=\"681\" src=\"https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/jamontegobay-1024x681.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-1667\" srcset=\"https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/jamontegobay-1024x681.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/jamontegobay-300x200.jpg 300w, https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/jamontegobay-768x511.jpg 768w, https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/jamontegobay-1536x1022.jpg 1536w, https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/jamontegobay-2048x1363.jpg 2048w, https:\/\/travellogs.co.uk\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2019\/11\/jamontegobay-1568x1043.jpg 1568w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 1024px) 100vw, 1024px\" \/><figcaption class=\"wp-element-caption\">Montego Bay<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<h5 class=\"wp-block-heading\">7. Hellshire Beach (Near Kingston)<\/h5>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Famous for its local seafood shacks and authentic Jamaican atmosphere. Less postcard-perfect than Negril, but fantastic for culture and food. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\"><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>&#8220;What&#8217;s Up?&#8221; Not much as you look at the grey sky and the rain pouring down.
