Usually make our reach in late March, but this year we are waiting till late July to celebrate out 10 yr anniversary, and cause the rates are a bit better...but, being that all of North America is in full tilt summer, I wonder if anyone would even want to go down since there is no cold to escape from...anyone know what it will be like? I know we will be there for ATI, so that should be interesting
Interesting? ATI is crazy! The rates are usually high season. Outside ATI the beach is real quiet. The humidity high. Probably like Florida. Great time to discover restaurants and do day trips. I once sat at CCLP on the beach in mid August and not one person walked between me and the water for five minutes. Usually huge T storms every PM for an hour.
We went down last July and it was hot but not unbearable. The thing that bothered us more was the Mosquitos! Bring lots of spray! We were there the week before ATI and it was pretty empty. I wouldn't hesitate going again in July, kinda liked the peace and quiet. Not too much rain, only had a couple of short afternoon downpours.
My buddy mike and I are going Aug 1 to 6 and staying at tree house. We went last year at the same time. It was very hot. There was a couple of epic thunder storms though. We had a blast. You wont see too many other tourists. The ones that are there are at the AIs. It's kind of nice.
We were there last July also. We're from Ontario, so it seemed a lot like home. Very humid, and rain in the afternoon sometimes. Hot at home, hot in Negril.... but there's no ocean at home! There were a few evenings that we watched lightning storms over the ocean. It must have been raining in the distance, but not where we were. It went on for a long time, and was beautiful to watch. So far, we've been to Negril in Feb, July, and October. We havent found a time that we WOULDNT go to Negril. This year, we're trying May.

And based on the way this year has started May sounds like a great choice! We went last July and like Jody says, it was the same weatherwise but the sea and not being at work - priceless. Happy Anniversary!
Don't waste your time with explanations, people only hear what they want to hear.
I usually go every July, and I love Negril at that time of the year. The pools are the most warm, and place is very quiet, so there are some amazing deals out there. It's perfect.
I agree with gerryg123!
I will be down this July...the last time I visited in July/August was in 2008 (I had been a few times during July) and I remember it being hot...more than April or May...but it wasn't unbearable. I don't know your dates but the 2nd and 3rd weeks I believe will be alot of folks because some hotels were booked solid those weeks.
