Kingston Jamaica - Rum,Reggae and Good Times

Jamaica,one of the most exciting and diverse islands in the Caribbean.White-hot blazing beaches dissolving into bathtub-warm waters of greens and blues;sparkling waterfalls tumbling through emerald forests.These elements define Jamaica's beauty,but there is also surprising contrast with the semi-arid,cactus-studded southwest.

Where you stay can define your experience.Fortunately Jamaica is renowned both for its pampering historic hotels serving traditional English afternoon teas,and for hip boutique hotels infused with romantic ambiance and contemporary decor. Many travelers prefer large-scale all-inclusive resorts while others opt for private villas tucked into coves as serene as their innermost thoughts.

Away from the hotels,clamber up Dunn's Rivers Falls, where waters cascade down a limestone staircase to the beach.Sailing down the Martha Brae River on a bamboo raft is another Jamaican experience.Look over blue seas or seek out crocodiles and manatees in the swampy wetlands of the Black Morass and snorkel and scuba dive amid coral reefs teeming with tropical fish.Drift along the coast on a sailboat for a rum-infused cruise,while at night you can dance to the infectious rhythms of home grown reggae.

Jamaica's homegrown religious adherents are recognizable by their dreadlocks.evolving in the early 20th-century from the back to Africa movement,the faith deifies Ethiopian Emperor Haile.Appropriating biblical passages to justify use of marijuana,smoked for enlightenment,believers adopt an Old Testament lifestyle,are vegetarians, and shun Western consumerism.
