Negril Jamaica – A Brief Introduction To The Famous Beach And Resort Town

For decades vacationers have made Negril, Jamaica their destination of travel. Couples have come to enjoy the freedom it has to offer, while families have enjoyed its beauty and fun activities. Here is a brief introduction to place they have fallen in love with.

Negril is located in two parishes in Jamaica. It is located in both Hanover and in Westmoreland on the western tip of Jamaica. Negril is also conveniently located about 2 hours (50 miles) from the Donald Sangster Airport in Montego Bay. This is actually the closest international airport to Negril.

Negril, Jamaica (Negrillo as named by the Spanish in 1494) is known for its long stretch of beach and its resorts. Some of the famous resorts of note in Negril are Grand Lido, Hedonism II, and Couples. Other popular resorts along the long stretch of Seven Mile Beach include Sandals Negril Jamaica and Beaches. There are about 25 different resorts located off of Seven Mile Beach. Negril is also known and remembered for its nude swimming and sun bathing on the beach which is clearly identified by signs which say "Swimsuits Optional". Regardless of whether or not you are comfortable with that type of freedom, there is something for everyone in Negril.

Seven Mile Beach is known for its white sandy beaches. It is parallel to Norman Manley Blvd. which is the main highway leading into Negril from Montego Bay. The cliff area in Negril is considered more private than some other parts of the beach. This area has good scuba diving, snorkeling, cliff jumping and just a fantastic place to relax. Negril is a great deal of fun and has a bit of everything for couples and families.
