Best time to take a vacation to Jamaica

Best Time to Go

Jamaica vacations are a top choice for people all over the world because of the consistent 80oF temperatures year round. Temperatures tend to be cooler during certain parts of the day. Outdoor activities are probably best in the morning due to the cooler climate, while indoor activities are suitable for the early afternoon hours. Temperatures usually descend once the evening hits. Jamaica receives the most rain fall during May, June, September, and October. The warmest months are July and August. Travelers can take advantage of hotel and flight deals for their Jamaica travel from October to December, and early summer.

Popular Jamaica experiences

Beaches

Let's be real here: you didn't come to the Caribbean to skip the beach. Lucky for you, there are plenty to choose from on your Jamaica travels. Seven Mile Beach is a favorite with the chill-out crowd, while Treasure Beach is more vibrant place to enjoy a rum punch and listen to local fishermen wax lyrical about the fact that Bob Marley was born nearby.

Blue Mountains

For a break from the sea (and the crowds) just start climbing. The Blue Mountain is Jamaica's highest point, and if you can push through the burn and make it to the summit, you'll be rewarded with seriously breathtaking views.

Ocho Rios

The main port of call for cruise boats and the all-inclusive set, this once-sleepy fishing town has become a thriving, bustling tourism hub. Whether you want to buy coconut shell jewelry or try your hand at water sports, Ocho Rios has to be experienced at least once on your Jamaica vacation.

Port Royal

As "the wickedest city in Christendom," Port Royal was once the pirate capital of the New World. Not to fear, as all that remains of this den of iniquity are the ruins left when an earthquake sank most of the town into the ocean. Channel your inner Jack Sparrow and revel in the remnants of another era on your Jamaica travels – all for free.

Rick's Cafe (Negril)

Jamaica vacations are crowned with a trip to this iconic establishment. Still kicking since 1974, Rick's Cafe embodies the Jamaican spirit. Cliff dive into the Caribbean from 35 feet, or just grab a cocktail and watch one of Jamaica's famous sunsets.
