We went to Roots Bamboo one night last year and had a great time, it was a bit of a walk but worth it. However, on the way back which was late, it seemed a bit shady, not much lighting and approached by some not so friendly vendors. It made me a bit uncomfortable.
Is it better to take a taxi back after a night out there or anywhere else down that way?
it can get a tad spooky late at night.....if alone..DEFINITELY take a cab......even if just two/three women I would suggest it
It's actually me and my fiance.
If you are not going far, I suggest you walk by the road instead of the beach -- just remember to walk facing the traffic and keep alert for traffic. But as Ed suggested, a taxi is always a good option.
years back I woulnt worry, but with the money situation the way it is, and under those condtions .......I would do the cab ride in ANY country..its not that much in comparision...........keep a pleasnt trip going.....

grab a red plate route taxi mon.....their around even at that time of night........
it's inexpensive and very convenient.........white plates are expensive and not insured

Negril is a beautiful and safe place' but you do have to watch traffic.....drivers are fast and some are very high!
I walk the beach at night alone or with someone, never a problem for 33 years
Things are changing and maybe you should too, not only from locals.Originally Posted by Van
Doing this for 33 years means you aren't exactly spring chicken and might be seen as an easy prey for crime of opportunity:-)
I am chicken and always take additional precautions when out at night, at home and away.
I agree with sevensaints....things they are a'changin.....not a good idea to walk the beach alone at night. Take a taxi......
