First trip to Negril - Travel Report : Coco La Palm - DAY 5

[irie always]

Glad to see the adventures continue! Another day in paradise described so perfectly.

Clarity, there is a nature preserve right near negril--you can rent a boat to take you up the river (the one by roundabout with all the fishing boats) to it--probably for about the same you would pay for a snorkeling trip --and someone else from the board please help me with the name--it is escaping me. It is on the Morass side and from what I hear lots of birds and wildlife. Also Zimbali retreats offers a day tour which includes a tour of their ecoresort and farm up in the country which looks very lush. That one is just 30 dollars I think.

I went to Mayfield Falls years ago and loved the ride through the country just as much as the falls itself. The Falls are beautiful and lush vegetation--and for me it was a treat to swim in the cool river water after the warm sea. The hike up the falls is through beautiful heavily vegitated country and part of hit walking through the falls itself. I can't remember the entrance fee--but I worked out a deal with my driver from Clives to take me there for a discounted rate since I used them round trip for airport transfers.

Nice reporting.
Sounds like you guys have a very special trip.
Ever notice the cats in Jamaica have longer ears?

You guys take great pics as well. You have inspired me to go out and pick up another camera and retire my trusty Nikon. I took too few pics on my first trip and didn't realize it until I tried to put together a solid slideshow.

It's the Royal Palm Reserve on Whitehall Rd. near the golf course.....never been there myself but passed it many times.

I'm eagerly awaiting the Luciano part of your trip report where u joined us for the show!

I was at Luciano that night in April with Clarity n Marcus, too .... I hope I did not do anything embarassing that gets reported!

Love your reports and your photos. We took a lot of video and not many still photos this time, owing to the poor lighting for the majority of the trip! Keep it up/going!

I saw one of those beetles dead as well, right on the shoreline. Still loving the trip report

[HuskerJohn]

I've read all your reports so far. Love your writing style, both of you, and the pics are magnificent!

Here's a big beetle we found one night in the Blue Cave Castle yard after Pee Wee's birthday bash.
3 1/2" from pinchers to the tip of the tail.

A night to remember!
