Where to stay near the Pelican Bar

[MilwaukeeMike]

I've been going to the Pelican Bar since it opened. We always stay in Treasure Beach and charter a local fisherman. Unless the sea is angry, pretty much you can go any morning. Depending on how many in your boat, expect to pay $30US-$60US p/p. I should point out this is for pretty much an all day adventure. The ride to the Pelican, then up the Black River looking at the crocs, then a stop at Sister Lou's River Stop for fresh crab backs, and then a little swimming and total relaxation at Rudy's before returning to the Pelican again. I've found that the fishermen in Black River are fairly pricey for the short trip. The ride to and from Treasure Beach is lots of fun and you may see dolphin on your trip. Floyde's Pelican Bar is opposite Parottee Bay and there is lodging there too. If you choose TB, just let it be known at Eggy's Beach Bar that you want to do a Pelican trip and you'll have several Captains to choose from. I like Ted Parchment but I'd go with any of the Captain's in Frenchman's Bay. Here's http://www.360globe.net/jamaica/trea...-at-night.html Eggy's a night. While my favorite watering hole in all of Treasure Beach, this video is a little nicer than reality.
