Jamaica...the North Coast!

When one imagine this beautiful isle...the beaches definitely comes to mind and the North coast offers extraordinary idyllic postcard worthy beaches! However, this region of Jamaica also offers many attractions for the nature and adventure seekers...a bit of everything! I will journey with you through the beaches and attractions of Negril, Montego Bay and Ochos Rios.
 
1. Negril Seven Mile Beach...the name says it all! Can you imagine vacationing on this gorgeous strip of Caribbean sea? Somebody pass me a drink while I unwind! The seven miles are dotted with many hotels where you can easily find one that fits your budget.
 
 
 
2. Negril Cliff...this beautiful geological formation juts out into the aqua blue waters of the Caribbean offering rewarding snorkelling experiences. However, the location is known for the world famous Rick's Cafe...renowned not for its drinks but rather for the thrill of cliff diving! Are you an adrenaline junkie? If yes....then a trip to the cliffs is a definite must!
 

 
 
3. Blue Hole Mineral Spring Ochos Rios...for those who wish to luxuriate in a natural underground mineral limestone bath, this will worth your while! Blue Hole is considered a hidden gem of the north coast offering beautiful caves and waterfalls to explore...if you have ever visited, will you recommend adding to one's itinerary?
 

 
 
4. Dunn's River Falls and Park Ochos Rios...this iconic attraction is a must! Explore Dunn's by trekking up the layered rocks that forms the river falls, a beautiful place to experience and you can relax afterwards in the refreshing pools at the top! I would suggest walking with aqua shoes to help your grip on the rocks as well as zip-lock bags to protect whatever you're carrying in your pockets!
 
 
 
5. Dolphin Cove Ochos Rios...ever wanted to swim or be up-close to these beautiful sea creatures? Dolphin Cove offers a truly magical experience offering various packages to suit your budget and desire; dolphin encounter, swim with the dolphins, dolphin trainer for a day? Have you ever visited? Share your experiences!  I am a dolphin lover and I am definitely putting this on my list for my next Jamaica trip!
 
 
 
6. Rose Hall Great House Montego Bay...for those who enjoy history and learning the past of a place, this great house offers a glimpse of the sugar plantation era of old Jamaica. In addition, the tale of the house is told renders Rose Hall as a mysterious site. The views offered from the great house is absolutely breath taking, so don't forget your camera guys! 
 
 
7. Doctor's Cave Beach...one of the most popular beaches in the Montego Bay area! The beach is public with a nominal entry fee of $6usd however it's worth it! A safe, beautiful beach to unwind in with gorgeous picturesque views of the Caribbean! It's definitely a spot to relax with a cold Red Stripe!
