Jamaica
A Caribbean Vacation Staple
It is impossible to think of a Caribbean vacation without Jamaica immediately coming to mind. Perhaps it is because it is the 3rd largest island in the Caribbean. More likely, however, is that Jamaica’s rich, incredibly diverse culture has influenced Western music, cuisine, sports and language well beyond the Caribbean. Pretty impressive for an island half the size of New Jersey!
One thing is certain, Jamaica’s uniqueness puts it at the top of the list for vacation and honeymoon destinations!
The Beauty Within
Much like the rest of the Caribbean Jamaica enjoys beautiful coastlines with white sand beaches and crystal-clear waters. However, the flipside to being one of the larger Caribbean islands, is the versatility of its landscape. With plenty of interior countryside, Jamaica is a paradise for explorers and adventurers alike. No wonder the phrase “Land of Wood and Water” is used to describe the varied and stunning topography of Jamaica!
After you’ve had your fill of sun-soaked, beach lounging afternoons (or before, no judgement here), you can venture into Jamaica’s interior where you can find rivers, lakes, waterfalls, swimming holes, and yes, even mountains!… and Jamaica offers guided tours of all sorts to, and through, all of them.
Your Jamaican Adventure
For the mild adventurer – Kick back, relax, and enjoy a mellow ride down an easy river on a bamboo raft. Allow your guide to do all the steering as you take in the surrounding beauty as you gently float along. Or jump on horseback for a guided ride through the hillside to the beach and in the ocean!
For the moderate adventurer – Maybe you are looking to get out of the water… and even off the ground. In that case, you can grab a harness and zipline your way through canopy coverage and over jaw dropping river views.
For the extremely adventurous – What could be more exhilarating than cliff diving with locals in Negril from 40 foot plunges? Not one for heights? Not to worry, we have never gotten up the courage to make the death defying leap either. You can join us at a table at Rick’s to watch the cliff divers while we enjoy the sunset and rum punch.
Or, trade in the bamboo raft for an inner tube and take a river adventure that will take you over some small rapids and to more remote swimming holes.
Want to truly see ALL of Jamaica? Head over to Blue Mountains National Park and make your way to the summit of Blue Mountain. Peaking at nearly 7,500 ft, the view from the top is nothing short of breathtaking.
Versatile Vacation Destination For Everyone
Truly the quintessential tropical vacation, Jamaica offers a little bit of everything and a lot of relaxation. It is our go to destination when we have travelers looking for a variety of activities to please everyone, but especially families. There are so many great resorts that offer a vacation for parents and a fun, educational experience for kids and teens of all ages. Teens enjoy hanging out at a beach party to Bob Marley tunes and young children
Love Is In The Air
Jamaica is the birthplace of the all-inclusive honeymoon resort AND the much loved swim-up bar. Both of which can be credited to Sandals Resorts, which is also a Jamaican, family owned portfolio of Caribbean all-inclusive resorts whose start began on the shores of Montego Bay.
Jamaica is one of the easiest and most romantic islands for a destination wedding. Which is why 3 of our team members were married in Jamaica! In fact our love affair with Jamaica is decades long and only gets stronger year after year.
