    I wanted to hear live reggae music, and taste lots of authentic Jamaica foods. We only stayed 3 nights/4 days, so I guess that was an introduction.

    We are in the process of planning a trip back, around early spring of 2017 !!!!….YAY ...... There are several relatives who wants to join us on this next trip.

    We don’t want to have to bring kids along, but one of my sisters just may have to bring her 12 year old …..

    I’ve read that Negril is the place to stay to experience good, live reggae music. I plan on staying at least 6 nights, this time around.

    Tours I want to experience:
    Bob Marley
    Croydon Plantation Tour (I love history)
    An Island Highlight Tour
    Glass Bottom Boat
    One Love, bar crawl (I have sisters who will love this)
    The Luminous Lagoon

    I don’t know if we’ll be doing the all inclusive this time around...or, will be trying something different !!! I know my relatives want to experience the ALL INCLUSIVE deal.

    ANY SUGGESTIONS ???
    * If you choose to stay in fabulous laid back Negril...it's a bit of a distance to the Bob Marley museum as it's located in Kingston - round trip driving time is approx. 6-8 hours. The Bob Marley 9 Mile which is located closer to Ocho Rios is almost the same amount of driving time, maybe an hour or so less.
    If you're into Reggae...a stop at the Peter Tosh Mausoleum is in order and located in beautiful Belmont/Bluefields area (approx. 40min. away from Negril) and can be combined with other locations to visit...YS Falls (a working plantation), Pelican Bar, Bamboo Avenue, Middle Quarters, Blue Hole...sooo much to see and any of the Negril.com tour drivers can customize a great trip for you.

    * Glass bottom boat operators are easily found on the beach...everyone has their favourite boat captain...pick one close to your hotel.

    * One Love Pub Crawl is a great way to explore the West End of Negril...you'll visit some locally operated properties that you may not have explored on your own.

    * The Luminous Lagoon is located in the Falmouth area (closer to Montego Bay) and driving time from Negril is almost 2+ hours one way. Incredible experience you may combine with other excursions.

    * Live music can be found at a number of venues in Negril. Special larger live concerts happen every so often and during high season some of the smaller venues offer daily, weekly or biweekly shows that are a load of fun...Bourbon Beach, Alfreds, Drifters...etc.

    And, I think your choice of Negril ROCKS for your next visit to Jamaica!!
