It's only fair to tell people who want to get away from the main beach. The water is great for snorkeling or a dip if you get too hot, the bar serves ice cold drinks and the restaurant does a fantastic grilled lobster ($18 US for a whole lobster). From the roundabout its 15 miles north, towards MoBay. You can... More

The beach was dirty, full of cigarette ends and the water wasnt clear. There was two big aggresive dogs on the beach and in the water, people sunbathing nude (whiole we had our children with us) and smoking weed. More

No crowds, no beach salesmen, and excellent bar and restaurant serving a whole grilled lobster dinner for $18.00 USD, here is a prefect spot for some awesome beach time! Only a short drive from Negril. More

We brought our snorkeling things and went out a bit. It was nice. The drinks were not good at all. We didn't have lunch. The live music was nice, but 2 boats of people came in so it wasn't really private but we heard that that was unusual. Everyone was very nice. More

If you are staying in Negril, the options with a rental car are limited. You can drive South to Black River, for an alligator-searching cruise - also to buy spicy shrimp at Middle Quarters. Alternatively, you can head North, towards Montego Bay. If you choose the latter route, be sure to call in to Half Moon Bay, described by the... More
