Many of the best beaches in Jamaica are either totally hidden or private, tucked away for a special few. But that doesn’t mean you can’t find some of the island’s best beaches for yourself,  too.

Because while Jamaica is known as the land of rum, reggae and rastas but it’s also home to some of the best beaches you’ll find.

From Portland’s eastern shores to Negril famous western strip and several spots in between, there are plenty of places to spread your towel and soak up the sun.

We bring you some of our favorites: in other words, your best beaches in Jamaica.

Seven Mile Beach, Negril This (almost) seven-mile-long strip on Jamaica’s northwest coast is as famous for its laidback bohemian vibe, beachfront hotels and colorful parade of local characters as it is for its white sands and warm, clear water.
