your point please? This is cosmos where some of the best beach has always been....hope you are not suggesting this is legends
My point is that the beach is always moving...and no that end has not ALWAYS been that wide.Quote:

By 1983 I had been in business on that beach for six years and living there for fifteen.Quote:

is it me, or is Ed being difficult?
As has been stated here previously the Negril Beach is an extremely fragile environment surrounded by two rivers, the morass, and the sea. It is a island in and of itself. Yes, it has changed dramatically over the years. Partly because of the loss of trees that held the ecosystem together and the massive amounts of concerted that are now there. Nature has also taken it's course. My late husband's Mother Miss Ella had property by the craft market which is no longer there. It is now under water. If you look at the beach when 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea was filmed you will see a totally different environment. It was my Husband's and even his children's playground. There is a reason many of the old timers chose not to live on the beach. I am sure the stories of tsunami' s being passed from generation to generation was one of the reasons. As Bob said "No One Can Control the Time." And nature will take it's toll as has been evidenced globally all over the planet.

Very nice unspoiled area of the beach .. for sure
Speaking of beaches, anyone have a current pics of the Tree House bar area? Here's one from Jan 2013.Attachment 31018
Great shot Caught, I think this point seperates the weak from the willing. When I leave Samsara and do the beach I push on to my old neighbourhood at Miss Lena's Inn Ting for a little visit with Miss Madge and Ossie.Thirty years ago the beach was quit large in that area and thirty years from now it might be broad again.After all we're just passing through.It would be too bad if I depended on the beach to be the same every year.I just couldn't count every grain of sand.lol
I happen to have been down in cabo last week ,beautiful area, great service,HUGE wide beach ,only problem? You couldn't go in the water,terrible under tows ,get close and staff came running!did a likkle party boat thing,talk with the awesome guys that ran it,no way they're swimming in that water(greats,hammer heads).All I can say is ill take negril every single time!( by the way,brothers destination wedding,I had an excuse!)
Well said..Quote:

When we went by in April '13 it looked worse by the Treehouse... but just a few months before, Sept '12, we spent 9 nights at the Treehouse - and there was beach, not water surrounding the bar. Change can happen rapidly, that sand was deposited elsewhere, and I suspect that eventually it will come back... if it doesn't, Treehouse is going to be rebuilding that bar...
This is from Sept. 14, 2012.
