Half Moon travel guide and vacation resources
If you have come to Jamaica to relax a bit, Montego Bay is the place to head for first. Montego Bay is the second largest city in Jamaica. It is the gateway to tourist activity on the north coast. MoBay has a small international airport served by many US and Canadian carriers. Local Jamaican commuter airlines connect MoBay with Kingston, Negril, Ocho Rios and other regional airports. The city sits in a bay with mountains rising in the background. It is a hub of shopping and dining and the beaches are lined with all-inclusive resorts. There is an old-town, with restored 18th century remnants. There is also an odorific public market (wear washable footwear). The beach-front is just on the north edge of town near the airport; Doctor's Cave Beach is a clean, private beach (open to the public for a small fee). It's relatively peaceful and clean - worth the modest price of admission. There's a lot of history around Montego Bay. Many old estates have ties to the distant past. Usually the great houses of the estates will have names ending in "Hall". Rose Hall, for example, is an outstanding relic of colonial times with a fascinating and detailed history of dark rumour and intrigue. Regular tours during the week provide lots of opportunity to immerse one's self in 18th century history. The history of Jamaica is a lot more than "a bunch of Englishmen captured some Africans and kidnapped them to Jamaica for brutal living". The story of Annie Palmer, the mistress of Rose Hall, is not easily forgotten! Travelers who like to be at the heart of it all will find Rose Hall Beach Club to be one of Jamaica's best for their perfect beach environment. Vacationers can easily reach the shores of Rose Hall Beach Club, which is located on the main road just east of Montego Bay. These amazing shores offer secluded soft sands with crystal clear waters, perfect for all kinds of beach activities. Travelers may want to keep in mind that, though Rose Hall Beach Club is certainly not secluded, it remains one of the beaches in Jamaica furthest from civilization. This makes it an excellent choice for travelers who would like to make the most of their time at the beach without having to fight for a spot on the sand. One of the most important parts of a beach can be location, and you can find a great sunny spot to relax on a beach. You'll find plenty of beaches in Jamaica, like Rose Hall Beach Club. So, whether you're looking for a secluded spot or a bustling beachfront you can find it, but you have to decide if this particular beach is the perfect fit.
