Traveling in Negril: What to Do and Where to Go on Your Negril Vacation

Overview

From its long white-sand beaches to its laid-back atmosphere, Negril is a perfect blend of true Jamaican culture and modernity. While the city does not have a distinct center, it does have four main districts. Sheffield Road is the closest thing Negril has to a center; it’s home to most of the city’s local markets, restaurants, gas stations, and its police station. East of Sheffield Road are Coral Seas Plaza and Plaza de Negril — the city’s main shopping district. South of Sheffield Road is Negril Square. Negril Square is where you’ll find an overload of taxis, hustlers, and sketchy tour guides. This area is best avoided as tourists are the designated prey. North of Sheffield Road is Red Ground — the city’s main residential district. And, surrounding all of this are pristine white beaches that extend into the turquoise waters of the Caribbean Sea.
