Negril is a small resort town in western Jamaica. It’s known for its miles of beautiful coastline and sandy beaches, shallow bays with calm, turquoise waters. Seven Mile Beach, particularly the portion overlooking Long Bay is lined with bars, restaurants and resorts, many of them international and all-inclusive. Long Bay opens onto a lagoon protected by coral reefs and is a snorkeling and scuba-diving destination.
Among a mind-blowing variety of rich dive sites featuring planes, tugboats, spectacular reefs with a broad variety of marine life, our favorite spots are Archers Reef with its small airplane wreck and Shark Reef, as it’s covered with beautiful overhangs, providing the perfect hideaway for nurse sharks and small reef sharks.
