Negril, the perfect destination

Negril, the perfect destination

Bloggers Hannah & Adam have eleven reasons why Negril in the northwest of Jamaica, is the perfect holiday destination. Here is an excerpt to peak your interest

Authentic flavor
Sometimes Caribbean resorts can make you feel like you could be anywhere in the world, but not in Negril. When you visit Negril, you know you’re in Jamaica and there are plenty of chances to experience all the wonderful aspects of Jamaica’s culture. In Negril you aren’t tucked away in a resort devoid of any culture; you’re right in the middle of it.

Reggae music
The voice of Bob Marley and laid back reggae beats are the rhythm of life in Negril. You can’t venture too far down the beach without hearing it. The beach and surrounding resorts in Negril often host live concerts from big name reggae artists.

Waterfalls
Jamaica is known for its waterfalls and from Negril, all of the country’s best are easy to tick off on a day trip. Mayfield and YS waterfalls are right in Negril’s back yard. Dunn’s River Falls, Jamaica’s most impressive set of waterfalls, is a bit further but worth the trip.

Seven Mile Beach
Without a doubt, the biggest draw to Negril is its massive stretch of beautiful white sand beach. Negril is home to one of the longest beaches in all of Jamaica called “Seven Mile Beach,” which as you might have guessed is nearly seven miles of uninterrupted sand.

Beach nights
Life around Negril revolves around the beach with many good restaurants and bars set on the sand. In many places around the world, the beach is not safe place after sunset, but that’s not the case here. There’s just something special about listening to the waves lap against the shore at night. The perfect way to finish a day in Negril is with the stars in the sky, reggae music in the air, and a cool Red Stripe in hand.
