More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The day opens on the West End cliffs of Negril where salt-laced wind pushes you toward the horizon and the sun leans into a famous sunset. You begin inland at a mineral blue hole — a round, deep pool fed by limestone springs — where cool water dares you to jump from a platform or climb down a ladder and float in clear, buoyant depths. Later, the road arcs back toward the cliffs and Rick's Café, where crowds gather along jagged coral ledges to watch cliff divers slice into the Caribbean below while live music threads through the air.
