This attractive strip of white sand is pretty quiet during the week but livens up on weekends. If you want to enjoy more than just the beach, hire Jet Skis or take a boat trip along the coast. A small bar and restaurant provides refreshment. The beach also hosts large-scale music events – check the flyers in Ocho Rios for what's coming up.
