The cliffs of Negril is a beautiful setting for diving among the rich marine ecosystem, a reef full of life and colour; also for experiencing the sensation of jumping into the void in lovely surroundings; or enjoying the magnificent sunsets, an unforgettable experience.
Right on the cliff sits Rick's Café, undoubtedly one of the most lively spots of the area. It was formerly a haven for pirates, but nowadays it has become a Jamaican icon, with its reggae, Caribbean music, rum, fun, tourists, locals, and more.
