    Negril River Excursion

    On our next trip thinking about a journey up the Negril river. For those that have done this trip, what wildlife / flora would we expect to see along the way. Any tips on who best to hire for this excursion. Thanks in advance for the information.

    I don't think there is a formal excursion. I was thinking hiring one of the boats along the beach to take us if there was something interesting to see. I am sure someone has made this trip.

    Have made the trip many times, here is a Negril Today page from 1998.

    The best time to go is before sunset. The sunset is gorgeous on the way back!

    We hired Capt Clark's boat to take us down the river in February. There are various birds. The mangroves, jungle, and mountains in the background are quite lovely. We went as far as an old bridge where the river narrowed and got out and walked around a bit by the old road going to the Royal Palm Reserve. Our boatman said no one is allowed on the reserve anymore.

    It’s a great excursion, doesn’t take too long and gives you a different perspective of the morass. We did it a few times when the Royal Palm Reserve was still open. You would walk from the iron bridge about a mile to the reserve. I wish the reserve could find a sponsor to reopen it.
