Best place to spend the day on Seven Mile Beach?

I stayed across the street from the beach last year and walked over every morning and planted myself on Kuyaba's loungers, with my cooler in tow.

You can get a beach chair at Alfred's but be sure to either eat or drink there. I am there almost every day - no problem.

My advice: Don't pick one spot.....beach crawl

Hey Tizzy! Priceless advice.

[*vi*]

First choice is Alfred's for the reasons JoJo listed, Second is Margaritaville where the loungers and umbrellas are free and you pick your spot (just tip the guys who set you up). They also play music and sometimes games. Great people watching spot. Food & drinks are expensive so I would go elsewhere for eats. That will give you the opp to stroll the beach.

Do a two day Death March ........... find a place mid beach like Sun Beach or CCLP ..... flip a bottle cap ........... heads you go south, tails you go north ............. one drink or beer at every place till you get to the end of the beach ........... next time repeat but go in the other direction ......... good luck

Hi Tizzy, Nice to see your post. Going back some years ago the beach crawl was a daily event. At that time you could walk from the river all the way to Rutland Point without any fences or obstacles. But I do agree with Cap, Cosmo's has always been a great spot. Back then just a round thatched roof bar & restaurant, my favorite being the conch soup and a couple cold Red Stripes!!

Yeah, Cosmo's is probably the closest you'll find on the beach to the "old Negril" (though I have never experienced Negril as it used to be). But also agree with Tizzy, you need to explore a bit. I'd start at Cosmo's, then hop a route taxi to M'Ville to enter the beach, turn left and stroll.

My guess is the OP is looking for a great 'home base'', where they can lay out there chairs, and stuff, and settle in and get comfortable for a nice relaxing day on the beach, once settled, they
can always leave do some strolling around. Another thing, when I went to Alfreds to go swim out to there dock, the bartenders were more than happy to watch my bag with key, money, etc, so I wouldn't just have to leave them laying around, that is as long as you were buying food or drink, plus a little tip !!
