Lobster

[Irine]

I'm sure this has been beat to death, but I thought I would post anyway. Over the years we've been going to Negril the lobster prices have really climbed, so much so that it's cheaper to buy a lobster in Duluth MN than Negril. Does anyone know of a fisherman who will sell live lobster so I can cook it myself? Hoping this might be cheaper. Also, is the guy with the heated stainless steel box still selling them on the beach for $10 a pop? I thought this was a great deal.

Just a lobster lover looking for lobster love : )

The best price I've found on lobster was at Just Natural. It was around $13, if I remember correctly. As with everything on the Just Natural menu, it was fresh and delicious!

Where is that?

Where is that?

Just Natural is in the deep West End on Hylton Ave. Go past the lighthouse and just Past Out of Town Pastry, there will be a fork in the road. If you go right, you will stay on West End Rd - if you go left go, you will get on Hylton. Any taxi driver will be able to take you there.

Interesting Irine... I thought lobster was a lot more affordable in Negril, especially for Americans since the Jamaican dollar has devalued in the last few years comparatively.
3 Dives and Kool Vybes is approx 3000j (approx. $23us) for 1 ½ lobsters...much cheaper than previous years.

Check out the link below...there's a shop in the West End that sells seafood...

In Duluth MN there is a place called Dreamland Supper Club, they have a Australian Lobster tail ranging from 16oz and up. Had one last Valentines Day that was 22oz for $46. Just a hair over $2 an ounce and it was fantastic. I'm surprised to hear 3 Dives price, definitely gone down since 2015, we had a hard time that winter finding a deal under $28 US.

Thank you for the website, awesome!!!

There are sometimes guys that catch them offshore, you just need to walk to beach to find them, sometimes there's one around Nirvana. If you go early, the fish market next to the big craft market near downtown sometimes has them. You can also ask your hotel to send the seafood truck there.

I agree with Bnewb, that the lobster dinner at 3 Dives and Kool Vibes is a pretty good value. This lat reach we split a lobster dinner and brought a 1/2 chicken dinner back to our apartment for dinner the next night. One note of caution, don't by seafood that isn't keep at the proper storage temperature. Respect --Marblehead

Hey Irine,
I am going to Supreme Lobster here in Illinois this weekend.
I will see what the going rates are in the Midwest.
