If you're looking for a carefree, cool and party atmosphere, you'll find it in Negril. This is an ultimate beach destination with mesmerising cliffs and miles of white sand. The bow-shaped town hugs Seven Mile Beach, the longest continuous stretch of powdery shore in Jamaica. Many beaches are clothing optional.

Negril is the most western town of the country with high cliffs and white-sand beaches edged by palm forests. The town is also a port. Away from the coast, you will find long stretches of wetlands with exotic birds and crocodiles.

Although more mainstream now, Negril still is impregnated with the free hippie spirit since the sixties. Some places are simply not for families like the infamous Hedonism II resort. It can be a real party place with bacchanalia, raunchy bars, and ganga. Do remember that drug possession and consumption is illegal.
