    Main/General - General island travel information

    About Kingston Jamaica About Kingston Jamaica
    Few Caribbean islands can offer up the diversity of our island country - where there's so much more than "rum, sun & raggae" - especially in the often overlooked capital city of Kingston, the heartbeat of Jamaica and the second largest English-speaking city south of Miami, Florida. Kingston overlooks what is the seventh largest natural harbour in the world. Like a fan, the city spreads north from the harbour as far as the foothills of the famous Blue Mountains - impressive peaks that form a glorious backdrop to the whole.

    History of Kingston, Jamaica History of Kingston, Jamaica
    If there was a prize handed out for tenacity among the world's cities, Kingston would be up there with the winners. A real survivor, this hardy metropolis has risen like a phoenix from fires, floods, earthquakes and hurricanes.

    How to Choose The Best Beach In Jamaica For Your Vacation How to Choose The Best Beach In Jamaica For Your Vacation
    All your life you dreamed of taking a vacation and suddenly it is almost time! Now, the pressure to get the most out of it. We all have different ideas about vacations. And, this will be a special one. You have to realize your own special needs and wants and incorporate all this into a well structured fullfilling time.

    Jamaica: A Taste of the Island and Island Life Jamaica: A Taste of the Island and Island Life
    Relax as Paris Permenter and John Bigley take you on a short journy through Jamaica - dining, hotels, shopping and adventure.



    Web Links to External Articles
    • Montego Bay, Jamaica - Sally's Place 2000
      Nine winter trips to Montego Bay, Jamaica and the contrast never fails to delight me: we thread our way through the check-in lines while it's still dark in New York.


    • Montego Bay: Hitting The Hip Strip - Caribbean Travel and Life Magazine
      YOUR MISSION: To spend as much time as humanly possible shopping, eating, jamming and beaching on Montego Bay's Gloucester Avenue, also known as the "Hip Strip."


    • Inside the Real Jamaica: Meet the People - TravelLady 2000
      The Jamaica Tourist Board recently introduced a new program called ‘Insiders Jamaica’ and if you’re tired of the standard All-Inclusive Mega-Resort, this program is for you.


    • Jamaica's North Shore - Islands Magazine
      10 attractions to Jamaica's North Shore.


    • Negril, Jamaica Offers Seven Miles of the Laid-Back Life - TownNews.com
      The name Jamaica is nearly synonymous with splashy, all-inclusive resorts; its wide variety of landscapes and locales--or highly-publicized natural beauty and tourist trade--makes the island well-suited to a great range of budgets and tastes.


    • Jamaica for Real - TravelIntelligence.net
      There is something satisfyingly lyrical and laconic about the Jamaicans. It’s a combination of their undoubted style and economy with words. ‘Everyting criss’, says a passer-by in the Blue Mountains. ‘Criss’ means ‘as crisp as a brand new banknote’; a perfect world in other words.


    • Places & Prices: Jamaica - Concierge.com July 2002
      A tourist destination for longer than any other Caribbean island, Jamaica has hotels that seem to have settled into the landscape.


    • Jamaica's Very Untropical Central Highlands - Guidebookwriters.com
      I discovered Jamaica's premier scenic drive in the central highlands, at 2,000 feet, where the air is cool and inviting and the roads dip and curve through very untropical-looking countryside.


    • Jamaica: Up Close and Personal - Lovetripper Magazine 2000
      Throughout the years, we had seen fire eaters, limbo dancers, contortionists, and just about every other imaginable island show in Jamaica. When we made plans for a Mandeville cultural night, we were ready for half naked men, flaming limbo sticks, or, at the very least, flying knives juggled in the evening air.


    • In Jamaica, a Few Spirited Rounds - Washington Post September 20, 1998
      Anyone who thinks golf is not real exercise should be made to walk Tryall, the renowned course in Montego Bay, Jamaica. At a little more than 6,200 yards, it is not a long course, and the first seven holes are on a flat shelf running along the shores of the Caribbean.


    • Jamaica’s serene Port Antonio, not for “Spring breakers.” - TravelLady.com 7-16-2000
      It has cool mountains, cool waterfalls and cool rivers for bamboo rafting, plus warm beaches, warm ocean and a less frenetic ambiance.


    • High on Jamaica - National Geographic Traveler Magazine 2001
      The Caribbean's largest English-speaking island, Jamaica is a feast of many flavors, and the familiar fare of rum, reggae, surf, and sand are merely the appetizers.


    • Rum Running - canoe.ca January 10, 2001
      Rum lovers, listen up. Jamaica may be one of the best places in the world to sip and sample in pursuit of your passion.


    • Oh, the The Tryall and Titillations of Jamaica! - Travel and Leisure Magazine March 15, 1999
      As surely as spring stretches into summer, the lines for golf in America stretch from sea to shining sea. No problem, mon. Open tee times await in Jamaica,where great golf is never off-season.


    • Jamaica's nude nuptials - canoe.ca February 14, 2001
      In Jamaica, nude weddings highlight growing nude travel industry.


    • Dive Right in Mon, the Water's Fine - LynnSeldon.com 2000
      Many great dive islands in the Caribbean have developed their tourism efforts around divers. However, Jamaican tourism has blossomed around great resorts and incredible culture. They just happen to have some excellent diving.


    • Across each resort area, Jamaica makes it a bit better - Travel Weekly May 13, 2002
      Across each resort area, Jamaica makes it a bit better.


    • Two Jamaican Coastal Destinations: Port Antonio and Ocho Rios - Foster Travel Publications 2000
      The Jamaica of my experience proved to be an intriguing but troubled destination to recommend. I looked at old Port Antonio, where tourism began in Jamaica a hundred years ago. After that immersion, I visited the more modern Ocho Rios, where the newer phase of planned all-inclusive resort tourism greets the traveler.


    • Gironimo, Jamaica! - USA Today October 17, 2000
      Americans dive right in (literally) to Jamaican way of life in Negril.


    • True Gems of Jamaica - canoe.ca February 1999
      I'm sad to say, I'm on my way: Back to Toronto after a few days exploring the north coast of Jamaica. Leaving behind the island's tropical, though stormy, weather and returning to Toronto's grey, winter weather is a dismal thought, indeed.


    • Jamaica: A Taste of the Island - ParisandJohn.com
      Jamaican restaurants, aware of those without the need to explore, can offer a white bread menu for those not looking for a real taste of island life.


    • Splashdown in Jamaica - Edmonton Sun
      Not everyone goes to Jamaica to laze on a beach. It's pleasant, tempting and relaxing, but once in a while you should get up in the morning looking for something more active.


    • Jamaica's serene Port Antonio, not for 'Spring Breakers - Romar Traveler July 15, 2000
      Jamaica, with its sunny beaches, rum, world famous coffee, majestic mountain peaks and only a short flight from the United States, has been in our consciousness for so long we may begin to take it for granted.


    • James Bond's Jamaica - USA Today 11/22/2002
      He called it Goldeneye, a simple white house perched on a rocky cliff along Jamaica's lush north coast. But in this unlikely setting, flanked by misty green mountains and the shimmering sea, Ian Fleming created the most famous spy the world has ever known.


    • Treasure Island - Concierge July 2002
      From Reggae to royalty to rastas, Jamaica has always been the real thing. Henry Shukman walks in her light.


    • Seeing Jamaica the write way - Boston Globe March 30, 1997
      It was 5:30 a.m., earlier than we were used to rising. As we climbed down the stairs, Natania's Guesthouse smelled of java and orange cake, and the two dozen votive candles, twinkling from the corners of the stair treads, gave off more light than one would imagine in such a scene.


    • Rollin' on the River, Mon: Rafting in Jamaica - Islands Magazine January 2000
      As I touched my paddle to the water, the inflatable canoe spun in the current like a whirligig beetle. Then I spotted a big rock ahead. I tried to nose the bow away from the rock and power around the side. No luck. The canoe spun again, and I took the rock amidships, bouncing off and caroming downstream.


    • True gems of Jamaica - Toronto Sun February 1999
      Locals lend their own warmth to this tropical paradise.


    • Negril, Jamaica - discovery.com
      Seven miles of white sand in western Jamaica. Hotels and restaurants line the waterfront; fortunately building codes limit structures to the height of a palm-tree and prevent the beach from feeling over-developed.


    • New and improved Ocho Rios - canoe.ca January 15, 2003
      The first thing you need to know about the Jamaican resort town of Ocho Rios is that it's 86 km from Kingston.


    • Don't Bring Your Wallet to Jamaica's All Inclusive Resorts - FabulousTravel.com
      Gentle breezes float across powder white sand beaches while clear, aqua water beckons you to swim beneath it's warm current and lush, tropical plants sway to a reggae beat.


    • Negril's Really Wild Side: Crocodiles on the Black River - Lovetripper Magazine 2000
      Vacationers to Jamaica are happy to hear "no problem" as an answer to just about any request -- whether it's for another Red Stripe beer or a taxi or more towels in the room.


    • Resorts Coming to Jamaica's Quiet South Side - Cincinnati.com
      Resorts coming to Jamaica's quiet south side.


    • Port Antonio: Green Peace - Caribbean Travel and Life Magazine June 1997
      Portland is country Jamaica. The parish seat of Port Antonio lies 60 miles over the Blue Mountains from Kingston but exists in a warp of 60-or maybe 100-years ago. Mento bands still play the old licentious calypsos. Old-timers talk about duppie (ghost) haunts and about the widow Flynn who, they whisper, feeds crocodiles to keep intruders off the Errol Flynn Estates.


    • Jumpin' Jamaica - Gwinnett Travel 2000
      Today in Jamaica, deep-rooted memories of how these sugar-based fortunes were made elicit very mixed feelings and just a handful of the old Great Houses still stand including Greenwood Plantation, Barnett Estates and Rosehall, all open to the public as museums.


    • Rafting Jamaica's Rio Grande: Down the River by Bamboo Raft - lynnseldon.com 2000
      Errol Flynn knew a civilized island activity when he experienced it: river rafting couldn’t be more civil than on Jamaica’s Rio Grande. This is truly one of the Caribbean’s most unique adventures afloat.


    • Jamaica’s Quiet Side - Port Antonio - Travel Assist Magazine
      Finding romantic spots in Jamaica is easy. Finding a secret hideaway that offers a combination of tranquillity, history, natural beauty and seclusion requires a bit more ingenuity. On the northeast shore of the island, however, lies Port Antonio, now a sleepy little town that offers all these things.


    • Jamaica: The Way It Used To Be - Caribbean Travel and Life Magazine August 2000
      Port Antonio is the Jamaica you thought was gone for good. Untouched by mass tourism, green in look and consciousness, its isolated shores have been bypassed by modern construction. When people talk about the latest development around here, it usually refers to a good haul of snapper rather than a new resort.


    • Hide Out on Jamaica's Sleepy South Coast - Denver Post 2000
      If you've already visited or heard about Jamaica's big resort towns, you'll be pleasantly surprised by the small-village feel of the island's South Coast.


    • The Other Side of Jamaica - Guidebookwriters.com
      I came to Jamaica seeking off-beat seclusion; a calming counterpoint to the bustle of the island's north coast resorts--Montego Bay, Negril, Ocho Rios--with their haranguing hustlers and ramshackle slums hard-up against high-rise hotels.


    • Jamaica's quiet mountain gardens - mysanantonio.com 07/28/2002
      With its pricey resorts and exclusive cruises, Jamaica is not where you'd normally head if "cheap" is the primary goal of your vacation. For those willing to put in a little time and effort, however, many of the island's most rewarding experiences are even better than inexpensive: They can be had for free.


    • Blue Mountain Country - TravelIntelligence.net 2000
      To get here, you leave behind the seduction of the turquoise shore, the assault on the senses that holds the whole island in a lover’s embrace, and climb up to where the air is keener, the perception sharper. It’s a sad thing that visitors rarely leave their bolt holes on the palm-fringed beaches and venture out and meet the Jamaicans where they live.


    • Jamaica Pearl of the Caribbean - The Gambler Magazine
      As the bitter wind, snow and slush of winter days begins to seep into our skin, and the tension in our neck builds from scrunched shoulders and shivery bodies, we increasingly find ourselves looking heavenward for a sign.

    Caribbean Travel Tips

    Planning your trip with kids
    Get your kids actively involved in planning your trip from the very beginning -- that way older kids have a stake in making it work and you have a chance to allay younger kids' natural wariness of the unknown. Besides, it's fun.

    Beach Towels
    If you are staying at a small hotel you'll need to bring your own. Larger resort provide them. You may also want to bring a couple of washcloths if you're staying at a small hotel, they don't always have them.
