Cosmos is at the far end of the beach, but they have a shuttle there and back for cliff dwellers if you want. They will watch your stuff. Most of the non-AI's are glad to have you - Sunbeach, Fun Holiday, Travellers (but their beach is really not great), Sunset on the Beach (the bartender is a sweetie!) - but it's at the end near Negril. Most charge for chairs. Buy a few drinks and you're good to go.
What are these containers from Walmart? They sound great!
I second "The Wild Parrot" as a place to hang out on the beach. Only a short walk to Margaritaville, The Parrot is nice, has a nice menu, a cool bar, restrooms, a shower, and changing rooms. When in Negril, and I am a Cliff Dweller, I hang out at the Parrot on my beach days as do several xpats that I know.

Seasplash lets you leave your stuff at the bar, then hit the beach. They watch over it for you.
I second the walkin the beach idea. My wife and I walked every day for 2 weeks and really enjoyed explorin. My advise is to wear a bathing suit and repeat this in a mirror. "Jus walkin today" for the higglers you will encounter on your way.Quote:

Picks you up at Margaritaville. Was drinks and food. The food was a Pizza that went fast yet was good. The drinks never ran out. Rum Punch and Red Stripe. Trip to Ricks Cafe to watch the divers. You could swim to shore if you wanted to jump. Had music. Now the choice is yours you would likely get just as good of a boat trip by walking the beach and talking to someone on a boat. Dont bother with the people walking the beach that want to sell you a tour. Usually they own nothing and just add in money for themselves. We used Captian Andy down near Fire Fly and he is a really nice guy. You can negotiate and get food and drinks included if you like but usually that needs to be planned ahead of time. The boat ride you can do anytime.
As for a Taxi we winged it just stepped out on Norman Manly Blvd that runs along the beach and flagged one down. (Red Plate) One night we went to Ricks and then dinner and back to our room all for $15.00 US the driver was more than happy to wait for us at each stop no charge for that. Remember negotiate before getting in and pay when he is finished delivering you.
Bourbon Beach is the place to hang on da beach.........great location
free lounge chairs, bathrooms, outside shower, great food and drinks at the right price, great staff........
daily food specials that are tuff to beat.........beers are ice cold......great Jerk Chicken!
mi like it better than Sunbeach.......
