Ed,
There is absolutely nothing deceiving in the photo - anyone in Negril knows this picture to be exactly what was there yesterday. I have no desire to deceive anyone - with the internet today it would be pointless anyways. But Negril.com does always want the truth to be told.
Okay, so lets imagine all those loungers in the picture filled with people, how does that possibly change the position of the Caribbean Sea? You can see the high water mark clearly, and even at that point there is still plenty of beach left.
Don't you think it is more realistic that your take on Legends that the "beach is flooded" is based on a date or dates where the shifting sands of any beach had repositioned the sand at Legends during your vacation stay? I had lived here daily for some 20 years now and have a near daily experience with the beach in Negril. Your opinion of the beach at Legends is your opinion, but to use your own terms, is deceiving.
That is how the sea works, how nature works. The term "shifting sands" is very common and applies in the case of any beach. There could be no flooding of the beach whether the loungers were filled with people or not.
But it is interesting to note that you mention the loungers are filled during the day. Maybe that is because people enjoy the beach there at Legends...
