Three Quick Tips
 |
Choose the right beach for your vacation needs. Are you a family looking for a safe beach with lifeguards and water sports? Honeymooners dreaming of sharing the sunset on a secluded beach? Whatever kind of beach experience you fancy - Jamaica has a multitude of them. Research our beach properties before you go. |
 |
Pack smart. Along with your sunblock, don't forget to pack a cover-up, hat, and sunglasses. The beautiful sunshine of Jamaica is very strong, even when it's hiding behind the clouds. |
 |
Cover up before you leave the beach. Although Jamaicans generally accept casual dress, we're more conservative when it comes to beachwear. Unlike many beach communities in the US and Europe, it's not typical to wear bathing suits off the beach, not even at nearby restaurants or shops. So when you leave, be sure to throw on a pair of shorts and a t-shirt or a sundress. |

Christians and Jews unite:
Myer Lyon (leoni) came to Jamaica in 1789 and became the finest cantor in the synagogue then located at the corner of Barry and Orange Streets in Kingston. He adapted the Slavic melody to the ancient Hebrew Hymn text "Yigdal" which is a standard in most Ashkenazi synagogues. He wrote the hymn "The God of Abraham Praise" which became a standard in many Christian churches. He is buried in the old Jewish cemetery on Elletson Road near Windward Road in Kingston
