Jamaica is well known for its beaches. Golden sands and blue waters make this island a destination for anyone looking for relaxation and sunshine. Jamaica has a number of resorts catering to the beach-seeking tourist. Montego Bay, on the north coast of Jamaica, has miles of Caribbean beaches. You can also head to Negril for seven miles of uninterrupted sand. Many hotels offer all-inclusive packages so you can concentrate on relaxing.
Take a zip line trek through the tree tops (traversing ropes between platforms mounted high in the trees), kayak down the White River or take a guided all-terrain vehicle (ATV) tour through the forest. See the island from a different perspective with these adrenaline-inducing tours, which are run by knowledgeable guides through local companies. If you love swimming and being close to nature, head to Dolphin's Cove in Ocho Rios and swim with the dolphins
Jamaica offers plenty of options for an exclusive wedding, honeymoon or Valentine's Day excursion. Plan a memorable wedding on a cliff edge overlooking the Caribbean, on the steps of a historic mansion or right on the beach. For Valentine's Day, treat your partner to a stay at the Ritz-Carlton resort and enjoy the spa treatments and private beach.
For those seeking a more active vacation, Jamaica offers plenty of choices. The island has a number of world class golf courses, including Caymanas in Kingston and Wyndham Rose Hall resort, just to name two. With miles of coastline, Jamaica offers plenty of water sports. Try your hand at sailing, water skiing or jet skiing at one of the many beaches and resorts. Alternatively, hike to the peak of the Blue Mountain range at 7,402 feet. Hikers usually complete the seven-mile climb in the very early hours of the morning so they can see sunrise from the highest point in Jamaica.
