I always find it easier when in Jamaica to pay in Jamaican. You will get accustomed to the value quickly and don't have to constantly try to convert if the price is in J and you only have USD. You also get a better rate when you convert at the Cambios/banks...just my opinion.
When in Jamaica do as Jamaicans

I must agree with you Melody..my first reach was 1983 now....2013 150 trips later i see so much change honestly..call me greedy but I wish I could roll back time to the 80's when Negril was a little kept secret to a lot of people..
