Visitors come from near and far to soak up the sun on what have been recognized as some of the world’s finest beaches, cliff dive into the warm sparkling Caribbean, sample some of the areas spicy cuisine and experience the even spicier nightlife.

On the western corner of Jamaica is Negril which for the longest time had been Jamaica’s best kept secret. Boasting seven miles of unspoiled beaches and naturally beautiful cliffs Negril is a tropical paradise overflowing with Jamaica’s vibrant culture, exciting activities and festive nightlife. As the sun sets Negril’s beaches and cliffs come alive with the upbeat sounds of reggae music, theme parties and impressive bonfires. Negril is home to a number of all-inclusive resorts which provide convenience and value by offering one flat rate for accommodations, daily activities, nightly entertainment, fine dining options, alcoholic and non-alcoholic beverages and even taxes and gratuities. All-inclusive resorts let visitors relax and enjoy their spring break without worrying about where they’re going to eat, what they’re going to do and how much it’s all going to cost. The Sunset Jamaica Grande Resort & Spa and the Sunset Beach Resort and Spa are two of Jamaica’s beautiful all inclusive resorts. Surrounding you with non-stop spring break action as well as unlimited food and drinks, activities and entertainment throughout the day and into the night and much more these two all inclusive resorts offer intense fun and great value to its guests.

East of Negril is Montego Bay, or Mo Bay, as the locals call it.

One of the most popular places on Mo Bay’s Hip Strip is Margaritaville.

Stay hydrated under the warm Jamaican sun by enjoying some ice cold non-alcoholic beverages in between alcoholic ones. A great way to guarantee your tropical nights are full of fun and excitement is to eat a hearty meal before going out drinking. Jamaica is filled with delicious dining options that offer a variety of culinary styles. Dine on traditional Jamaican cuisine which includes distinctive spices and flavors or enjoy familiar international dishes. The Pork Pit is a favorite Montego Bay restaurant that serves huge portions of Jamaican specialties including the famous Jamaican jerk pork and jerk chicken.

Offering two amazing spring break options, Jamaica lets you choose between the relaxing and casual atmosphere of Negril or the faster paced Montego Bay. Both locations offer amazing beaches, restaurants and night clubs letting you choose how you want to spend your spring break in Jamaica.
