Holy cow! You guys are AWESOME! Thanks to you both, J'bug and Vi! This is great information! Let me know what you think when you come back from your trips now and in November. We are really excited to get out of our cozy Negril box and try something different. I just knew this board would come through with great tips and advice! Frenchman's Cove is so gorgeous. It truly is. San San looks lovely, too! Very different with the coves versus the looooooong beach in Negril!

We had heard the cabs were scarce - thanks for sorting us out on that rumour. We were thinking of getting a car just for the PA part of the trip. They're quite reasonable @ USD39/day, HOWEVER - and it'a a big one - there is a $90 pick up fee for PA. You can get a lot of taxis for $90 in 3 days. But just to do due diligence, what are your thoughts on getting a car there? I wouldn't want to do the Negril-PA trip by self-driven car - too many goats on the highway! LOL! I've done moose-spotting duty on a cross Canada drive, but goats on the highway is not in my skillset!

Again, thanks for your awesome advice! You guys ROCK!
