single in negril
 
I'm going by myself to nigril in Feb. Is there anything I should watch out for traveling alone? And what site should I not miss? And oh yeh, I'm in my late 30s.

Thad - <BR><BR>make sure you get some jerk chicken up at 3 Dives, on the cliffs.<BR><BR>Also, for tons of great info there is a message board dedicated to all things negril at:<BR><BR>www.negril.com<BR><BR>head on over there, you will probably fond a few folks who will be there at the same time, too.<BR><BR>Enjoy negril - we sure did! happy travels!

You must go to Rick's Cafe and take the 30 foot dive. If you can find someone to acompany you go to Mayfield Falls. The Jamaicans that take you through the falls are great but I think it would be more fun if you had someone else to go with as well.

3 Dives is my favorite too!! I also like the Negril Yacht Club and MiYard.<BR><BR>Thad, all I can tell you to look out for is the guys that ask you at the gas station if you want to go to Roaring River - don't. Otherwise just keep your wits about you when at beach nightclubs...like you hopefully would anywhere.<BR><BR>Have fun!<BR><BR>I can recommend a couple of driver/guides if you want to head into the country to waterfalls or whatever.

Liza, thanks for the heads up. I'm staying at the yacht club so that should be cool. Guides you know of would also be cool. Thanks also gingele and kim.
