We went to Ochi in June and I much prefer Negril. (as do my husband & 2 sons) We all wanted to take a day trip to Negril, but it didn't work out.

Anyway, if you are ok taking tours and paying tour prices then there would be a lot to do in Ochi.

We prefer just doing our own thing and walking and seeing local places, and for that, I would recommend Negril. I think being off resort in Negril is much better than Ochi. We prefer to stay non-AI. When we bring the boys back it'll definitely be to Negril.
