day trip Half Moon beach vs Rhodes Hall
Looking for info on going to either of these beaches via route cab, not doing an organized tour. I know both have a restaurant and snorkeling. Please give feedback on these places-quality of snorkeling, ambiance, and food. I know Rhodes Hall has a $15 day pass that includes pick up and drop off from Negril.

Re: day trip Half Moon beach vs Rhodes Hall
We just went to Rhodes Hall last week and it was amazing. If you take a route taxi, the cost is $5 pp for a day pass. You can rent towels for an additional $5. The charge for transportation and a day pass is $20 pp from the beach road., pick up around 9:30 and return at 3:30. They have snorkel gear for rent as well for $5. You won't be disapointed.

I have been to half moon a couple times it is really nice and food was good. I also did horse ride at Rhodes hall that was way awesome I think Rhodes might have a better selection of things to do.
Re: day trip Half Moon beach vs Rhodes Hall
Rhodes does have more to do, but Half Moon Beach has a bit more of an away-from-it-all feel, and that's an important element .... Rhodes has much better snorkeling, based on the fact I snorkeled Half Moon for like a half hour and saw NOTHING .... Rhodes has always been five dollars when I arrive at the gate, but they're advertising now that's it more money -- that's kind of a Jamaica thing, you just have to go with the flow ... Half Moon is free, and the food is amazingly good, even for Negril; never ate at Rhodes but have heard good things, mostly from Vince who is incredibly loyal to that place .... Some of the rooms at Rhodes look amazing.
Updated: Rhodes also has a pool, and that's a huge plus (saltwater pumped from ocean, it's cool); nice to have a Scooter and do both places!

I am really excited to give Rhodes Hall a try in April. There is a group of us coming to Negril for wedding so we might gather some of the troops for a day trip... :) Any one have pictures they can post?
