• The climate
is tropical with high temperatures on the coast, with slightly
cooler and less humid conditions in the highlands. Our natural
habitat provides a blend of interesting and unique features
that sets Jamaica apart as a one of kind destination particularly
among nature lovers. For example the island is home to some
27 species of birds that cannot be found anywhere else in
the world!

Jamaica is known worldwide for the vibrancy of our rich and
diverse culture. Our music has placed us on the world map,
and many equate the Jamaican experience with Reggae Music
made popular by internationally acclaimed reggae artist Robert
Nesta Marley. We are indeed proud to be the originators of
a music form that has revolutionized the music fraternity.
Additionally we have made our mark in theatre and the arts,
and of course who can forget the Jamaican cuisine. Our food
will definitely leave an impression on any palette, with our
spicy national dish ackee and salt-fish and other outstanding
foods such as jerk chicken, jerk pork, roast yam, bammy and
more!!
Fish
and Bammy, is a delightful dish among Jamaicans, however our
national dish, ackee and saltfish is an all time favourite
for both locals and overseas visitors.
Planning
an exciting getaway? No need to look very far. We are only
a heartbeat away…make Jamaica your perfect escape. It
will be worth the time, bearing in mind of course that we
don’t make promises, we fulfill them……
