Jamaica is a Caribbean Island steeped in history and culture. Jamaicans are proud to
share their country, traditions, and beauty with its near 4.3 million visitors each year. With
the national motto of “Out of Many, One People” and unofficial motto of “One Love” you can
expect to be welcomed warmly.
Journey through the country’s six unique areas with me and discover which one might be
the best fit for your next vacation.
Island History
The history of Jamaica begins with Arawaks, or Tainos, that migrated to the area about
2,500 years ago. They named the island Xamaca which is the land of wood and water and
settled near the coasts for easy fishing. Xamaca was discovered by Christopher Columbus
in 1494 on his second voyage to the Indies. Unfortunately, Columbus’ discovery and claim
of the land by the Spaniards led to the eventual extinction of the Arawak population.
After years of struggle and internal strife among the Spaniards, the English overtook the island in 1655. Upon their surrender, the Spaniards released their slaves who became known
as Maroons. Over the following years, the English depended heavily on African slaves that
were shipped to the area for sale. As you would expect, the slaves tried again and again
with various rebellions to become free. There are stories about Queen Nanny, a brave lady
that worked to lead Maroons to safety in the northern mountains of the island until a treaty
was signed in 1739 granting them about 2500 acres of land. Slavery was eventually abolished in 1808 followed by emancipation in 1834 and full freedom in 1838.
The Jamaica we know today became its own independent nation in 1962. It is a member of
the British Commonwealth but is not dependent on Britain. It is a strong, thriving nation of
2.9 million people across 4,244 square miles.
Island Vibes
Jamaica is divided into six (6) unique areas with its own feel. From the most romantic spot
for honeymooners to the perfect wellness retreat for the yogi inside you to the crazy fun at
Carnival, visitors are bound to find something that suits their travel styles when they visit
Jamaica.
Kingston
The capital city, is known for its a mix of night life, gastronomy, art, and music.
But Kingston is most famous for its birth of reggae music which is celebrated every February and the city has the most recording studios per square capita in the world. It further
received recognition in 2015 when Kingston was named a UNESCO Creative City of Music. Before you enjoy the fetes, or parties, each night, be sure to check out the Bob Marley
Museum. For those that like to enjoy the culture through cuisine, plan a visit around the
Blue Mountain Culinary Trail. This trail is a combination of about 15 eateries, coffee farms
and mountain views. After a perfect lunch, consider stopping into the National Gallery to
enjoy Jamaican art. This museum is the largest public art museum in the English-speaking
Caribbean.
Port Antonio
Defined by nature and is locally referred to affectionately as “Portie.”
Through its rains and lush greenery, it was established for its coconut and banana exports along its rivers. This is also where much of Jamaica’s history with the Maroons began, the
descendants of escaped slaves who established free communities in the mountains. You
can learn more about their history at the Charles Town Museum and Asafu Yard. The ideal
place to ponder all that history is on a boat tour to the Blue Lagoon. This magnificent lagoon is breathtaking with its perfect blue color caused by its near 200-foot depth. Another
beautiful Instagram-worthy spot is Reach Falls on Driver’s River. The adventurous surfer
staying in the quaint town can enjoy the waves off Long Bay Beach.
Ocho Rios
Where most of the adventure options are located between the Caribbean
Sea and the Blue Mountains. Bob Marley fans can participate in a tour of Nine Mile, the
small village where he was both born and buried. The active traveler can zipline or bobsled
down Mystic Mountain. The curious can go underground to see the Green Grotto Caves
full of hidden waterfalls, stalagmites, and stalactites. This cave was even once used as
hideouts by Spaniards and then by smugglers running arms to Cuba. The must-do activity
in Ocho Rios is to climb the famous Dunn’s River Falls. Form a human chain to help each
other up the falls before you relax for the afternoon.
Montego Bay
The resort city set by the sea. Some call it Mo Bay for short. This is the area
most known to visitors looking for a great all-inclusive resort with the white sandy beach or
a great golf course. You can enjoy great history when you visit the Rose Hall Great House
where infamous Annie Palmer lived to torture her husbands and slaves, Johnny Cash fans
can visit his home at Cinnamon Hill Great House, and swing by Sam Sharpe Square to see
the statue of the man that helped lead the Christmas Rebellion of 1831 to fight for slaves’
freedom. For those that are looking for a simple, relaxing way to connect with nature, a ride
down the Martha Brae River on a guided bamboo raft may be the perfect activity.
Negril
The western tip of the island is where people go for romance and relaxation.
This area became a popular place for backpackers and hippies to visit beginning in the
1960s and their lifestyle stuck around the area for decades to follow. Negril is home to the
famous Seven Mile Beach which offers the quintessential white sandy beach and clear water. Lovers can enjoy the perfect island sunset on the west end cliffs after you sometimes
find cliff jumpers there performing jumps from eight to forty feet. And the more adventurous visitors can cliff jump too. This is also the best place in the island to plan your scuba,
snorkel, and deep-sea fishing excursions.
South Coast
The most low-key section of the island and is considered to be “off the
beaten path.” Consider this part of the island if you want to disconnect from the hustle
of everyday life. South Coast is mostly defined by its mountains and quaint villages. And
these villages work hard to project its wildlife with the Galleon Fish Sanctuary and Fonthill
Beach Park and Wildlife Sanctuary. Connect with wildlife on a safari tour on the Black River
or enjoy seven different cascading waterfalls in the YS Falls.
Jamaica is an island easily accessible by air or cruise ship and has so much to offer that
this island will not disappoint. You could have a great 10-night vacation that covers each
of the six distinct areas. Prefer a long weekend getaway that focuses on just one? I would
love to help you determine which area best fits your travel style.
Jamaica vacation packages are a tropical island fantasy come true. Here, you can stay on incredible beaches, watch gorgeous ocean sunsets, and climb a soaring volcano to watch the sunrise above the clouds. With watersports aplenty, kid-friendly resorts, and waterfall swims, Jamaica family vacation packages offer the perfect mix of entertainment and natural beauty. One of our last-minute Jamaica travel packages could deliver you to a gorgeous hotel on Kaanapali Beach in just a few days. If golf is your heart, take a swing on the unique courses on the slopes of a volcano with one of our Jamaica golf vacation packages. A welcoming are just a couple of clicks away.

a weeklong vacation to Jamaica and a mother-daughter getaway to New York. Her advice and recommendations were spot on.

Getting in touch with Lia was a whole new experience, she answered all my initial questions in that first phone call, had so many recommendations, and it was obvious she knew exactly what she was doing. By the time we hung up the first phone call, I had decided on a destination and venue (per Lia's suggestion). She was a God send!
