Montego Bay beach - where dreams become true vacations
Cornwall Beach is a long stretch of white sand with dressing rooms, a bar, and a cafeteria. The grainy sand and good swimming have made it a longtime favorite. Unlike some of Jamaica's remote, hard-to-get-to beaches, this one is near all the major hotels, especially the moderately priced ones. Unfortunately, it can be crowded in winter (mostly with tourists, not locals). This is a good beach for kids, with gentle waters and a gently sloping ocean bottom. The beach is open daily from 9am to 5pm. Admission is $2.50 for adults, $1.50 for children. Doctor's Cave Beach, on Gloucester Avenue, is arguably the loveliest stretch of sand bordering Montego Bay. Its gentle surf, golden sands, and fresh turquoise water make it an inviting place to swim, and there's always a beach-party atmosphere. Placid and popular with families, it's the best all-around beach in Montego Bay. Sometimes schools of tropical fish weave in and out of the waters, but usually the crowds of frolicking people scare them away. Since it's almost always packed, especially in winter, you have to get there early to stake out a beach-blanket-size spot. Admission is $5 for adults, $2.50 for children age 12 and under. Open daily 8:30am to sunset. The beach club here has well-kept changing rooms, showers, restrooms, a food court, a bar, a cybercafe, and a sundries shop. Beach chairs and umbrellas can be rented daily. Walter Fletcher Beach, in the heart of Mo Bay, is noted for its tranquil waters, which makes it a favorite of families with children. It's one of the most beautiful beaches along Jamaica's southern coast. Easy to reach, it's generally crowded in winter and enjoyed by visitors and locals alike. If you bring a picnic, be careful not to litter, as patrols might fine you. From December to March there seems to be a long-running beach party here. Visitors show up in almost anything (or lack of anything), although actual nudity is prohibited. There are changing rooms, a restaurant, and lifeguards. Hours are daily from 10am to 10pm. Admission is J$200 (US$3.30) for adults, J$100 (US$1.65) for children. Frankly, you may want to skip all these public beaches entirely and head instead for the Rose Hall Beach Club, on the main road 18km (11 miles) east of Montego Bay. The club offers .8km ( 1/2 mile) of secluded white-sand beach with crystal-clear water, plus a restaurant, a bar, a covered pavilion, an open-air dance area, showers, restrooms, hammocks, changing rooms, beach volleyball courts, beach games, and a full watersports program. Admission is $6 for adults, $3 for children. Hours are daily from 9am to 5pm.
