📍 Destination Overview
Negril, Jamaica's most laid-back resort town, is famous for Seven Mile Beach and cliff sunsets. The beach runs some 11 km of fine white sand and turquoise water; limestone cliffs gather at its southern end at sunset, where the famous jumps at Rick's Cafe make the iconic scene. Crystal-clear for snorkelling, with reggae in every bar, it feels blissfully relaxed.
