when to visit

There really is no bad time to visit Jamaica. Whenever you plan your trip to Jamaica, you’ll be greeted with mild weather in the 70s to 80s. Obviously, the lush tropical forests should get some rain, but most of that rain falls on the mountains farthest from the island. , which is not frequented by tourists. If it rains in the part of the island where you plan your Jamaica excursion, you can be sure that it will only last an hour or so and then it will disappear. Occasionally hurricanes strike, but very rarely. If you’re worried about hurricanes, then don’t plan your trip between August and October. The winter months of the United States tend to be the busiest tourist months, as vacationers try to escape the cold and snow. If you don’t want to travel to Jamaica during the high season, plan your vacation for the summer months.

Hotels

When traveling to Jamaica, all-inclusive resorts are the best hotel options. These resorts are highly recommended as you will have a variety of food to choose from and even your excursions may be included. These resorts can be found in Negril, Ocho Rios, Montego Bay, and other beach resort areas. Sandals and Couples is the largest resort facility in Jamaica, offering well-appointed Jamaica hotel rooms. If you want to stay in Kingston, you are more likely to stay in a hotel in Jamaica. Hotels in Jamaica are particularly suitable for American luxury travelers. Jamaicans really know how to please a tourist.

Restaurants

Jamaican restaurants offer delicious island food. Jamaica is famous for its jerk chicken whose smell will make you salivate and its taste will melt in your mouth. Be sure to order a rum drink at Jamaican restaurants. The rum available on this island is among the best in the world. Also, save room for dessert and on at least one day during your trip to Jamaica, opt for bananas. These banana-like fruits are served fried and saturated with sugar. Don’t take your diet to a Jamaican restaurant!

If you choose to stay in a resort, you will have a selection of Jamaican restaurants on the property. But don’t be afraid to venture outside the complex to explore other restaurants. You’re unlikely to find much of the “native, local” fare, as residents tend to live in the inner parts of Jamaica. But you will find Jamaican restaurants that cater to the most discerning traveler.

things to do

The essential activities in Jamaica revolve around the water. You will find many things to do in the ocean. Of course, sunbathing on the beach is a popular activity. Negril’s 7 mile beach is world renowned and is a wonderful area to enjoy the beauty of the Caribbean. You can also enjoy sunset cruises, snorkeling, jet skiing, kayak rentals and more. In Negril, you can rent a personal boat and paddle across the water to your own private island and claim a beautiful stretch of Jamaican beach.

If you feel the need to take a break from the sun, head to Dunn’s River Falls. Here you will walk along a path that leads to many waterfalls. The path is shaded by a jungle environment filled with beautiful native flora and fauna in a park-like setting.

While a trip to Jamaica isn’t known for being educational, there is a museum you might want to visit if you decide to venture to the country’s capital, Kingston. When many people think of Jamaica, they think of reggae music and Bob Marley. If you want to learn a bit about this side of the island, take a trip to the Bob Marley Museum in Kingston.
