The 16th Annual Boardie Bash will be held at...

the new Firefly on the beach! Andrea, formerly of Whistling Bird and Catcha Falling Star and her friend Opia have bought one of Negril's original beach properties and are remodelling the property, making it their own!

After seeing what they have in store for the new Firefly, it was a simple decision to bring the 16th Annual Negril.com Boardie Bash to the location of our very first sponsor hotel. It was back in 1996 that Firefly took a chance on an interesting new opportunity and become a hotel sponsor on Negril.com.

This year we are pleased to return the favour and give the new Firefly the opportunity to host this year's annual event on Friday, April 25th, 2014!

The entire lineup of events will be posted shortly - but we wanted to let everyone know where this year's Bash will be held! And yes, the clothing optional aspect of the old Firefly will change - that will no longer be allowed. The new Firefly will be much more family oriented, so all are welcome.

See you all at the Bash!

Excellent

Dangit ... I was hoping to find out if Flip was a true redhead ;)

Good for Andrea ... Should be a great time!

That is great news about Andrea buying Firefly!

It is the first place I stayed in Negril back in '83 and I have fond memories as it was the favorite place we stayed anointed by my wife who passed away shortly after we returned to California.

Andrea is an old and dear friend. I used to stay at Whistling Bird with comps from Jim. Andrea and her husband would give me a ride to Sheffield when I moved there as she was a neighbor.

I will be missing the Bash as I won't be returning until October. Please give my best to Andrea and Opia. I will stop by on my next trip.

Peace and Guidance

Great news! ( wonder how long that image will be burned in my minds eye)

The new Firefly is more family oriented??? Does that mean the whole family will be nude ? Nice place to redo,,,look what they did at Sandy Haven.

NICE!!!...Can't wait!!!

Cool !
And close enough for me to crawl back to the room :)

Dang looks like we're going to miss this by just a couple days, maybe next year! Any word on what all is changing and timeline for the changes at Firefly? We're going to be there from the 15-19th of April.

Some day I will be able to make a late april trip!

Looking Forward to it.

Hopefully it's next year, because I hope you'll be at the wedding.

You might have to change the date for your wedding if its after april 15th! :) Even that is pushing it, How about april 1st.

Gotta be in low season. I am not made of money!

Waiting.... :)

Firefly was already family friendly. Lots of kids there over the years. It was more naturist than hedonist. No more public option on the beach I guess.. many great stays at Firefly over the years. Love the OV penthouse suites.
