Ocho Rios or Negril
 

We are looking for a terrific beach, scuba, snorkeling and also other fun things to do. Thinking of Riu Tropical Bay in Negril, or Breezes Runaway Bay in Ocho's. Any advice on either of the resorts would be great. Whats the beach like in Nov. in Runaway Bay, heard very choppy, cant kayak or sail.<BR>Thanks!

Definitely the RIU in Negril.

Nevermind that last post. I misread the question. Sorry.

Usually you will find calmer water in Negril than at Runaway Bay. There can be exceptions, depending on the weather. The beach is also longer and nicer in Negril.<BR><BR>As for being unable to sail or kayak at Runaway, it will depend on conditions - can vary week to week and day to day. But overall I would say Negril is a better bet.<BR><BR>

Negril - the better part of the island. Water is calmer, beaches are longer and the most beautiful sunsets!
