You can. I wouldn't. Can't experience TB in a day.
I did TB in a day and thoroughly enjoyed myself. I was only there for several hours, but it was nice to check the place out for a future stay. You can tie in a stop in Belmont on the way back, or a host of other options are available as well.
I agree with TAH.
You can go there in a day... Just stay for 2-3 more, then head back.
that being said, if there was a headliner like Tarrus playing at Jack Sprats... I would consider it in a second and sleep the whole way home...
You can do it and have fun, sure. But you can't get the vibe of Treasure Beach in a day, or two even.Quote:

I used to do it all the time. Especially when I lived in Treasure Beach but..... Treasure Beach is not so much a destination as it is a lifestyle and a little more laid back than Negril. I think you get hustled an harassed a lot less and generally speaking there is not as many transplants from other areas of Jamaica there as in Negril so it is more "family".Quote:

Just my opinion.

I went for an afternoon after Lover's Leap last December. After that, I decided I wanted to spend my fiftieth birthday there with friends. We just got back Saturday. Best trip I have ever had to Jamaica. Cannot wait to go back. We are scheduled for Negril again in December, but I'm thinking very hard about ditching those plans and going back to TB.
It can be as short as 6 hours or as long as dawn to night...
It's your choice .....How much do you want to do?

Treasure Beach is a special kind of place.Quote:

This past Febrary we went to the Morgan Heritage concert at Jack Sprats and drove back to Negril the same night. Got home at 4:00 am but was well worth it. I would love to spend 3-4 days there again next February. Does anyone know if there are specific weekends that they hold concerts?
Got our 4 nights booked and we're so excited. The bonus would be if there happens to be a concert at that time.
I agree that it does not make for a great "day trip". While I enjoyed the day we spent there (booger), I wouldn't do that again unless I could stay a few days at least.
Yeah, the first time we went to TB it was for three days, two nights. It wasn't nearly enough. The last time we stayed a week, which was just about perfect. You really need to adjust to the pace there, as it's very different from Negril, much more laid back.Quote:
