    To me the beach has made a comeback in the last couple of years! In 2012 the water was hitting the bar in front of Treehouse. This past May, there was plenty of sand.

    This picture was taken at least 4-5 years ago or more. That's Lazy Dayz and that roof was built long time ago.

    My first reaction was that it was a "hit piece"

    With all due respect, reports of my death have been greatly exaggerated.

    I don't want to get into the debate on size but when if first saw this pic and the vid of "natives" chasing him down the beach I never equated it to less beach back then. I always assumed that because of the lack of development the jungle encroached further into what we think of as the beach today. Bulldoze the beach resorts and remaining jungle and you would have one heck of a deep beach.

    I loved the beach 26 years ago and I still love it today. Remember, it's not the size it's how you use it.

    An article like this befuddles me...I have never seen the beach as wide as it is now and have been going there for 20 years..but I am easily befuddled..close inspection will be done in 3 weeks..with a red stripe in hand..

    The beach in Negril ebbs and flows with the storms. I think the only way we can really judge is as Cap D suggests - measure from a fixed point, in this case, the middle of the road.
    We're all in this together and none of us is getting out alive.

    Mary Veira‎ from Couples asked me to post these pics, taken on the beach at Lazy Dayz. These are meant to demonstrate Mother Nature at work.
