Famed as the home of the longest natural beach in Jamaica, mellow Negril is a spectacularly beautiful destination for a beach holiday. Set on the island’s dramatic north-western coast, and popularised by hippes in the 1970s, the area is also known for its laid-back feel and picturesque forty-foot cliffs. The town of Negril is tucked between the epic white sands of Seven Mile Beach and West End’s stretch of sheer rock, brimming with great food and top-notch reggae beats. Accommodation options range from simple small hotels to luxurious clifftop hideaways, perfect for romantic escapes. Whether you’re travelling as a couple or with friends, the best places to stay in Negril promise a gorgeous Jamaican adventure in a stunning setting.
Sunbathe, swim or stroll along Seven Mile Beach — in fact just four miles long — or try snorkelling, diving, sailing, paddle boarding and kayaking. Long Bay Beach Park, towards the beach’s northern tip, is more tranquil and has picnic tables for lazy lunches. Just up the coast, Bloody Bay is also a wonderful spot for a dip.
Nature lovers can venture inland to cycle through the Negril Hills, admire tropical birds and plants at Barney's Flower & Hummingbird Garden Jamaica, or enjoy a guided wander through the 289-acre Royal Palm Reserve. There are waterfalls, zip-lining and off-the-beaten-track experiences, too. The Kool Runnings Water Park is a highlight of any fun-filled family trip.
Don’t miss the chance to explore the town itself, to taste Jamaican flavours and to hear live reggae with a tipple of rum. Sunsets from the best places to stay in Negril are also very special!
