Re: 2 single guys 1st trip
Heck no!, just don't stay at the resort!! GO out and see the real beauty of Jamaica!! Dinner try the Quality Sea breeze across from Canoe. Bar crawl is a MUST!!! There are plenty of Negril.com people there now , some are about to head out this weekend. Try out Mayfield Falls. Hire a driver and just GO!! (do you have a driver?)

isn't sandy haven a hotel? as compared to a resort?
Re: 2 single guys 1st trip
Get out as much as you can. Try as many bars and restruants as you can and get away from negril and go to one of the waterfalls or other attractions at least once. Negril is great but there is so much more to see that lets you experience more of the culture and beauty of Jamaica. Just use common sence as to not put yourself in situations that you wouldnt put yourself in at home and do it safely. To many people never venture out from where they stay and have no idea what they are missing out on. Jamaica is a beautyfull country and most of the people there are really friendly and kind. Enjoy it, respect it and take in as much as you can and you most likely want to return as often as you can. Some of my best days in Jamaica were days i just went off with no particular destination in mind and no expectations and had ended up having a wonderfull time

Re: 2 single guys 1st trip
Things I like to do in Negril, or things I want to do, or things I did once and am glad I did:
live music and dancehall djs: Boat Bar, Woodstock, Drifter's, Alfred's, Roots Bamboo, Bourbon Beach, the Jungle, SeaStar Inn, etc
half day trips: Half Moon Beach, Blue Hole
day trips: Mayfield Falls, YS Falls, Floyd's Pelican Bar
Eats and Drinks: too many to mention! Just wander until you find a spot to settle in for a little while, or a grab and go brew
try it once: Rick's Cafe- it's an overpriced tourist trap, but worth one stop. If it's not your scene, just wander up the road a bit and find a quieter place like LTU pub. Also, if you like the scene, Margaritaville draws a good crowd- find out when they are hosting parties, I think I read it's Fridays
snorkel the cliffs, take a boat ride, walk the beach, get some touristy souvenirs, volunteer at the St Anthony's kitchen, play pool, play dominoes... relax!
the One Love Bus is fantastic!
Be sure to get out and about. It's smart to take a taxi at night. Exchange cash. Have a blast!

Re: 2 single guys 1st trip
most of the action for you young bucks happens after 11pm at night on the beach/beach road........
so go get your PM naps in.....and then head out and see the real wild wild Negril.......
Ladies Night on Thursday Night is a must for you two......and hit Bourbon Beach any night.....you guys will have a blast!
Cool Runnings, Marko
