Negril ! # 1 Party Spot !

Ocho Rios - There's a place called Dolphin Cove where you can swim with the dolphins and touch exotic animals like lizards, iguanas..etc. There's a place called Hooves where you ride on horses in the water. There's also Dunns River Fall which is also a beach and has the most famous water fall ever ! I love it and I know you would too !

Negril - Rick's Cafe ! It's also a cliff where you can dive off into the water and then go have a nice meal at Rick's Cafe. You'll love it !

Ok non touristy spots,okaaay so you want to visit the ghettos and hardcore clubs to stand out as a stranger and experience the thrill of being robbed.lol.ARE YOU CRAZY !!!.
First time in Jamaica and you want to go to non touristy parts.You better wake up,now is not the best time to be running them jokes in Jamaica,and you coming here alone,come on where do you think your going.You better play it safe and find a decent hotel and go hang with the tourist till you find a decent Jamaican you can trust to take you around to the non touristy parts.Cut the bull we don't play that ish down here,understand yuh self.Don't learn the hard way.

1. Stay in a 'touristy hotel'. You do NOT need to be a single 26 year old female in a strange country, totally unaware of rules for your own security, out in the 'non-touristy places'. Stay in a nice hotel in negril (perhaps it doesnt need to be an all inclusive), where you know the staff can be your basic guide to safety.

Ultimate party experience? NEGRIL. ATI Weekend.
Ultimate outdoors with world class safety? Chukka Tours.
Ultimate Reggae Show? Mobay: Reggae Sumfest (july)

4 days is not enough time :) check out www.treasurebeach.net This is the area we stay and always have fun. It is not touristy and very laid back. Low to zero crim rate in this area and everyone is super friendly. email me if you have more questions. We have been to JA 4 times in the last 3 years. Negril is touristy.

Try Negril or Ocho RIOS, You will have lots of fun in both places the beaches are lovely and the people are very friendly. they have day to day activities on the beach, the night life is great. I have stayed in both places. and there are lots of b b to stay at which are reasonable priced

Montego Bay is still the best place to be in Jamaica. You can relate to the locals who will show you a nice time.

Go climb the Dunn's river falls! It's a waterfall that they lead you up. It's so fun!

Be very careful about going around by yourself. Like most areas in the world there are some very dangerous areas on the island. Stick to the resort areas. Don't put a drink down and walk away. Remember Natalie Holloway and be cautious about interaction with strangers.
