Frequent Articles on Negril, its Enterprises, Attractions & Activites

The 2 authors of this blog also co-authored the NEGRIL JAMAICA TOURIST VIDIA which is a free visual encyclopedia - directory reference website. Using photos, videos and maps it visually portrays each and every one of the 600 + enterprises, activities and attractions that can be found in this beautiful and very popular Jamaican tourist town.
The 2 of us have fallen in love with Jamaica in general and with Negril in particular. So we have expended a lot of our time and effort (utilizing all of our computer talents) to freely visually document this wonderful tourist town in our VIDIA. Our objective with our VIDIA is to portray Negril's ambient vibe to tourists so that they may see it as it actually is and then perhaps come and visit.
Frequently the author will dip into our ViIDIA's 1200 pages to here bring you its visual information and also his insights into any one of Negril's many interesting enterprises, attractions or activities.

The author is only writing about enterprises with which he has had personal experience or about which he has heard good things from reliable sources. When he is sharing hearsay about an enterprise, if possible he will link to its sources or post his source's actual articles.

Land Activities Available to Tourists within the Negril Area


There is a large variety of land activities in which tourists may engage while on vacation in Negril. Of course for the rugged and energetic there is hiking and camping as well as bicycling and horseback riding.

These activities can be especially delightful for Negril's tourists because of the nice friendly Jamaican people you'll meet, its beautiful tropical setting and its awesome views of the ocean and the Great Morass. For the adventurous tourists who do not want to exert much human power to get around, Motor scooters, motor cycles and 4 wheel land cruisers are the call.

For the sports minded there are basketball and tennis courts in a few places and volley ball courts abound all up and down the 7 mile beach. There is one nice golf course on the outskirts of town and a couple more within an hour or so drive. Cricket, Soccer and Rugby fields are also available in a few places in town.

For shoppers, shopping excursions in themselves can become all day, exhausting land activities! This is because there are 200 + shops of great variety scattered all around town and within Negril's 7 Shopping Plazas and 3 Craft Markets.

A couple of the large all-inclusive resorts provide their own sports centers for their guests and there is also a yoga center / spa , a gym and a library in Negril.

During the high season of December until June when the weather is warm and balmy and there is only sporadic rain, it's a great time for tourists to engage in any or all all of these land activities. But in the off season, Negril can be boiling hot and / or there can be torrential rains or even an occasional hurricane so only the most hardy will engage in them then.
The latest entry is always shown above. All of the preceeding articles are archived over on the right by their name and by the month that they were entered. The author periodically updates and / or improves them so that they remain current even though they're dated.

Entries on any particular enterprise or subject may be most easily found by keying its name or topic into the Google search bar near the top of the right margin and searching for it. Some of its information and a link to it will then pop up at the very top of this column so that you may go right to it.
