Are you looking for cheap Caribbean holidays in Jamaica? Choose your resort with care for they range from calm tranquillity to casually carefree - Negril is the quietest with fantastic watersports, Montego Bay the liveliest and Ocho Rios is the closest to some of the most famous sites. Jamaica has plenty to offer any visitor.
The rainiest weather in Jamaica occurs in May and June and again in October and November and can sometimes extend into December. While the average annual rainfall is 50.7 inches, accumulation varies dramatically across the island. For the most part when it does rain in Jamaica, showers are short, heavy and followed by sunshine.
There are the classic Caribbean beaches that feature the traditional joys of pristine white sand and blue, blue waters. But, there are also the craggy, undeveloped beaches that are perfectly suited for those hoping to avoid crowds or for those who best enjoy nature in its natural state.
Montego Bay has several championship-level golf courses, including Ironshore SuperClubs (Breezes), Tryall (North Coast Highway, Sandy Bay) called 'one of the meanest golf courses in the world,' and the White Witch (Ritz-Carlton). Blue Mountain Bicycle Tours (121 Main Street, Ocho Rios) offer exercise, spectacular scenery and ends with a swim in a waterfall.
Jamaica residents have come from around the globe, bringing with them the cooking techniques, flavors, spices and recipes of their homelands and blending them with the bountiful harvest of this tropical island. The result is some of the most flavourful cuisine in the Caribbean.
Most crime against tourists, if there is any at all, is petty and opportunistic. As in any other country you are visiting, including your own, take sensible precautions. Try to avoid walking at night alone, stay in well lighted areas, take the customary precautions with your valuables, use your room safe, and don't walk around with wads of cash in your pocket or purse.
