Looking back to way back when,(1988) coming to Jamaica for the first time, the excitement of the unknown and experiencing Negril without any prior knowledge was as big as a rush as I could ever imagine. There is really nothing that I wish I already knew, some things you just have to find out for yourself. Of course, there was no internet or message boards to scan for information either then, so the only info came from travel brochures or maybe a friend who had already been there. My advice is to blaze your own trail, have fun, find out for yourself the do"s and dont's, be smart, be safe, don't do anything stupid that you wouldn't do in any other town you are not familiar with.

I'm thinking even with a good 12step program you would backslide and of course me too! LOL

We are taking our first trip to Negril from 5/15 - 5/30 for our honeymoon. Both of us have traveled our fair share, but this will be a first for both of us to Jamaica.

I finished school last week, but she still has work, so while I don’t have a distraction I am obsessively reading through past trip reports and other good threads here.

I thought it would be interesting to ask the good folks here, what do you wish you knew before you went to Negril for the first time?

K&A.

Bring some bug spray to keep the sand fleas off your legs in the early (before 8:30) mornings and at dusk.

I like that you're staying on the cliffs for your first trip, you're gonna have a great time. From what I know, Banana Shout has a very chill vibe....

Two things:

Please please please be extremely careful when walking on the west end (best end)

Be just as careful if you decide to jump off any cliffs.
