I drink around 12 cups of water or more a day there--and have a full cup after each rum drink or beer. The tap water in JA is good--so as well as always carry a bottle of Wata with me I get a glass at each bar or home stop. I also love coconut water and have at least one a day (great for dehydration). I am lucky, I drink lots of water at home too, and like it so it takes no effort on my part.

That's the best advice imo. Water between drinks and coconut water every morning was my method and it works well. Coconut water = good for you
