Legally 18.

Practically speaking its about 14 or 15. In most environments, people dont care once you LOOK older than 15.

Jamaican bartenders have better things to do with thier time than to ask every other toddler for an ID.

It's 18. Try their rum, it's great. But only if you're 18 and over.

Generally speaking they are pretty chill in Jamaica. Basically if you can see over the counter they're selling it at you are likely able to purchase it. The people there are relaxed and don't want to dissapoint. Just be careful when you are drinking and a problem you might find is if you are trying to bring it back to the US. At customs they may take it if you aren't 21. Good luck! Try some Red Stripe, it's a jamaican beer. If you end up not drinking alcohol, try TING. It's a great non alcoholic beverage as well.

the only time there is a drinking age is when u go to the supermarket to buy liquor or when u go to a established bar....but when it comes to parties its like 14-16 and as long as u can pass for 18. legally it is 18 though.

I have been drinking since.... wow.... babyhood but the legal drinking age is 18.

The law is not enforced with locals but in resort and tourist areas people are careful with the foreigners and giving underage kids booze.

If ur not very babyish looking you can perhaps drink at a party at like 12... lol

Your question confuses meâ„¢

As everyone else says, 18.

But honestly, you could be 12 or 13 and can be able to drink.

it's 18 but last summer I was there with a big group and a few of the people were under 18 but got the wristbands allowing them to drink in the all-inclusive resort. The bartenders even knew and they really DON'T CARE! everyone's so chill over there. We're going back this summer =D
