I think you will totally enjoy walking along the west end. We walk quite a bit when in Negril. I think the biggest thing is just to be really aware!! Single file walking is a much better idea than side by side OMHO. The further west you go, the less traffic. To me, one of the biggest ideas that helped us...was a local that we have known for years, walked with us and shared some tips. Knowing how to handle the curves is tricky but if you approach each (remembering the traffic flow) by crossing over so that you will be on the side that is not hidden. I don't know if I am making myself clear but hopefully you get the drift. If not, a yardie will be sure and teach you. Enjoy and check out all the little nooks and crannies of the cliffs.
