Destination Information for Jamaica

Despite the allure of so many of the islands surrounding Jamaica, its natural beauty and charisma somehow allow it to stand out. The azure seas provide a stunning contrast to the white sands, meaning Jamaican beaches are the perfect setting for a relaxing getaway. For those in search of a more active retreat, you could scale the staggering 2256 metres of Blue Mountain Peak, with the summit providing unrivalled views of the island.

Moreover, a trip to Jamaica would not be complete without engaging in the rich culture the nation has to offer. Stars such as Bob Marley brought reggae music to global attention, and the inescapable influence of this genre is apparent all around the island. While the opportunity to sample traditional foods cannot be missed, as jerk chicken, yam and plantain will all sparkle on your palate.
