Jamaica · Caribbean
Seven miles of uninterrupted white sand and cliffside sunsets, quieter and more laid-back than Montego Bay.
Negril trades convenience for the best beach in Jamaica. Seven Mile Beach is exactly what the name suggests, a long uninterrupted run of soft sand with calm water, and the West End cliffs south of it deliver the sunsets the island is known for. The tone is slower than Montego Bay: smaller and more boutique properties, more adults-only options, and far less of the resort-strip density. The trade-off is the drive. Negril is roughly 90 minutes from the Montego Bay airport, which is worth knowing before you book, particularly with children or a late arrival. Choose Negril if the beach itself is the point of the trip.
