The 6 Best Beaches in Montego Bay, Saint James Parish

March 28, 2022 Rebbecca Marino

While this Jamaican spring break favorite is great for party animals, it can also be surprisingly low key – if you want. Montego Bay has excellent duty-free shopping, vibrant nightlife, and calm waters. Browse the local handicrafts at the open-air Harbour Street market, or the "hip strip" shops of Gloucester Avenue. The underwater crevices of Widowmaker’s Cave offer an intricate diving experience. Float serenely down the Martha Brae River on a bamboo raft and let your troubles melt away under the sun.

We stayed right on Cornwall beach at the Royale Decameron. Amazing views of the ocean and the mountains in the distance. And watching all the planes come in to the airport almost right over our heads was awesome. Beach was nice and clean. Waves were high and the ocean was rough most of days we were there so we were not able to swim much as it was red flagged alot.

Doctor's Cave Beach

Five miles of pure white sand and crystal clear water have made this beach a popular destination for tourists and families.

Reviewed By TOTRVLER

This was a favourite beach in Mo Bay, it was US$6 entrance and they can stamp your hand for re-entrance if you go out say for lunch and come back, if you want an umbrella or chairs it was another US$6 each, the attendants were helpful and the beach itself was soft white sand and blue waters. It gets very deep fast so you will have to be careful not to go out too far if you cant swim but the water was nice and calm. There are many lifeguards around and restaurants right by the beach, attendants can get drinks for you for a price. If the cruise ships are there it gets a bit crowded so go early to get a chair etc but it is still quite enjoyable and picturesque. We went twice since we loved this beach so much!!!
