Jamaica Honeymoon

Whether you are hoping to dance the night away or are looking for a relaxing, romantic beach getaway, a Jamaica honeymoon has something to offer all types of couples. The island is sunny virtually year round and offers a range of holiday options which make it an ideal honeymoon destination. Party-goers flock to Montego bay for the bars, night clubs and legendary music scene. Ocho Rios is home to stunning waterfalls, and is also known as a golf destination. For the eco-minded honeymooner, the misty-mountain escape of Port Antonio, near the Blue Mountains would be the perfect honeymoon location. Shoppers will delight at the selection of local arts and crafts. You won’t go hungry either. Local specialties such as jerk chicken, crab chowder, and conch followed by a cold Red Stripe beer or rum punch will keep foodie couples happy for days.

It's easy to see why Jamaica honeymoons are so popular. With so many attractions, amazing food, and beautiful beaches, you'll fall in love with this island paradise. 

Where to Go

High season is from December to March; expect sunny and warm days. April and May offer decent weather with reasonably priced accommodations. From June to November, Jamaica sees bouts of heavy rainfall. Hurricane season makes Jamaica honeymoons undesirable from August to October.
