Negril, Westmoreland and Hanover, Jamaica, Caribbean, North America
Negril is a small (pop. 6,900) but widely dispersed beach resort town located across parts of two Jamaican parishes, Westmoreland and Hanover. Negril is just about one hour and fifteen minutes drive from Sir Donald Sangster International Airport, in Montego Bay. Westmoreland is the westernmost parish in Jamaica, located on the south side of the island. Downtown Negril, the West End cliff resorts to the south of downtown, and the southern portion of the so-called seven mile (11 km) beach are in Westmoreland. The northernmost resorts on the beach are in Hanover Parish. The nearest large town is Savanna-la-Mar, the capital of Westmoreland Parish. The geography of Jamaica is diverse. The western coastline contains the island's finest beaches, stretching for more than 6 km (3.7 mi) along a sandbar at Negril. It is sometimes known among tourists as the 7-Mile Beach although it is only slightly more than 4 mi (6.4 km) in length, from the Negril River on the south to Rutland Point on the north. On the inland side of Negril's main road, to the east of the shore, lies a swamp called the Great Morass, through which runs the Negril River. Within the Great Morass is the Royal Palm Reserve, with protected wetlands and forest. In 1990, the Negril Coral Reef Preservation Society was formed as a non-profit, non-governmental organization to address ongoing degradation of the coral reef ecosystem. The Negril Marine Park was officially declared on March 4, 1998 covering a total area of approximately 160 km2 (62 sq mi) and extending from the Davis Cove River in the Parish of Hanover to St. John's Point in Westmoreland. Scuba diving and snorkeling are especially good in the protected reef areas. The West End Road is also known as Lighthouse Road as there is a Belgian engineered lighthouse protecting seafarers from the dramatic cliffs. There is beautiful scenery on this western tip of Negril, near Negril Lighthouse. You can mingle with locals at beer shacks like Sexy Rexy's and others out West. For years, Negril's beach has been rated as one of the top ten beaches in the world by many travel magazines. The beach's length is the stuff of legends it is actually little more than four miles in length, but tourists and travel writers insist on the seven-mile label. The north end of the beach is home to the large, all-inclusive resorts, and to the south are the smaller, family-run hotels. This combination gives the Negril area a large variety of rooms, services and prices. South of downtown Negril is West End Road, known as the cliff area, which is lined with resorts that offer more privacy. These areas offer easy access to waters good for snorkelling and diving, with jumping points reaching more than 40 feet (12 m) high. Many vendors and shops are located around the beach resorts, however they are predominantly located on the south end of the beach where there are fewer all inclusive resorts. It is reported by one British newspaper that white women of middle age visit Negril in search of what they call the big bamboo. That Negril is still fairly underdeveloped remains a significant factor in its undoubted charm. This may not last, as a new highway from Montego Bay and an improved infrastructure may bring more tourists. As a result more hotels and tour operators continue to develop the many attractions in Negril see more attractions and excursions as well as Airport Transfer here. In recent years it has also become a popular location for U.S. college students to visit during spring break or just a regular vacation in Jamaica. Negril has some quality local accommodation for those that want to live closer to the people. Recent developments such as One 4 the Road Backpacker Hostel at the Judy House on West Land Mountain on the West provides clean cheap rooms for world & island travelers. The last few years have seen major development along the famed beach. The resorts include Couples Swept Away, Couples Negril, Sandals, Beaches, Samsara Hotel, Legends Resort, the Grand Lido, Riu Palace Tropical Bay, Riu Club Hotel and Hedonism II.The world renowned Hedonism II resort celebrating its 33rd year is one enduring hotel/resort which has been saved from bankruptcy and remains a unique place of adult fun. A branch of Jimmy Buffett's chain restaurant and bar, Jimmy Buffett's Margaritaville, and a duty-free zone have also been added. The name Negril is a shortened version of Negrillo (Spanish: Little black ones), as it was originally named by the Spanish in 1494. The name is thought by some to be a reference to the black cliffs south of the village. Another theory holds that because there was a vast population of black eels along Negril's coast, the Spaniards called the area Negro Eels which was shortened to Negrillo and then to Negril. Although Negril has a long history, it did not become well known until the second half of the twentieth century.

14 parishes in 14 days | Jamaica
I’ve always traveled outside Jamaica for the holidays but last year I decided to use the money I would use for the plane fare to travel around Jamaica for two weeks. With $454US dollars on my debit card, I packed my backpack and traveled solo on public transportation. It was the best 2016 vacation. I met a lot of people along the way, learnt lessons (a lot) and got scammed in Montego Bay? Each parish had something different to offer and I enjoyed every experience; both good and bad. It is a trip I would encourage anyone to take.
Want to travel a lot this year? Explore around you first!

It was quite an experience in St. Elizabeth, Jamaica. Different, laid back and quiet. I visited the Ocean Breeze Hotel in Lovers Leap which was worth very penny.
