DO
Enjoy everything Negril has to offer.
Relax, relax and relax some more.
Treat everyone with respect – you will hear “respect” everywhere
Eat the local food – it is unbelievable.
Take Vitamin B one week before and during entire trip (Helps repel bugs and reduce hangovers) doesn’t work for me but some say it is the best.
Bring insect repellent and use it – especially on the beach at sunset
Bring half the clothes and twice the money you plan on.

DON"T
Do not tell people this is your first time - tell them you have been here 5 times.
Do not tell people you just arrived – tell them you have been here for awhile.
Do not brag about what you do or how much money you have.
Do not pay the asking price for anything unless the price is on a menu.
Do not take a taxi or tour unless you have an agreed upon price.
Do not tell where you are staying or room number to anyone.
Do not allow new “friends’ into your room.
Do not help create a society of beggars – just say NO.
Do not give handouts to people just to make them leave you alone.
Do not accept ‘help’ unless you are ready to pay for it.
Do not let someone put aloe on you unless you expect to pay for it.
Do not bring big bills – no one will have change. If they have no change they will go get it – relax and have another cold one.
Do not mistake truly friendly people for scam artists - the vast, vast majority of Jamaicans are honest as the beach is beautiful.
