Hello Jr. you might want to check out some of Smith744 posts from last year when he was there over the x-mas holiday he is a great/funny writer. We got there on Boxing day and it was festive thru into the New Year.

We spent the week of Christmas and New Years there two years ago, very lively, but never too crowded anywhere. Great fun.

It's the most wonderful time of the year.....We have been the past 3 holidays and just love the vibes, the crowds and the beach on NYE is awesome! Walk good, WM

Yes, I spent two Christmas breaks in Negril, and it was amazing. It is much quieter than it would be over the March Break but it was lively enough to keep us entertained and having fun. I believe there is a street party that takes place in Negril on Christmas Eve or Christmas Day but I've never gone. Most of the resorts decorate and hold special events on Christmas Day (themed activities, entertainment, meals, etc.). There's nothing quite like waking up on the beach on Christmas Day, especially if you're from a cold climate like I am :). Oh, and both years the weather was hot hot hot, much more so than we ever experienced in March -- higher humidity!

We arrived last year on Christmas Day, so I really can't say much about that, but NY Eve, that's special. I was blown away by how magical it is...

Never been during Christmas, but based on price increase at that time, it's technically the busy season. We usually go just before Christmas to get the low season rates but still after hurricane season. It starts to "pick up" a couple of weeks before Christmas.

Thanks people

Me and my handsome fella will be in Negril for Christmas & New Years. We are getting so excited and our countdown is ever on going. (7 weeks today for us). See you on the flip side.

Peace,

well its been quite a few years since we went at Christmas but I this brain storm idea of taking santa hats , they were a big hit, was lots of fun ,

Our first time was at Xmas 3 Y&R ago. The beach had lots going on, there was a "buzz" full of people... Then we went back the year after (2 yrs ago) and the beach seemed quitter somehow? I'm not sure if it was in fact less busy or if it was the fact that on our first visit it seemed more vibrant because it was our fist time? Going back this year, we'll see how it compares.

I made a mistake it's not 7 weeks til we arrive it's 11 weeks (wishful thinking I suppose) :)

Nothing beats seeing a Rasta Santa!!! We love love love the holidays in negril!!!
Christmas is all about family for many locals- magical to watch.
Be sure to get $$ before Xmas Eve, as banks are closed through Boxing Day (12-26)
You will be verrrrry happy that you did the holidays there. We fly in on 12-24....
