Negril's Jamaican coastline is legendary for its pristine beauty and laid-back charm. The whole area enjoys incredible subtropical weather, meaning it's warm but not too hot throughout the whole year. In April, average daytime temperature floats around 26 degrees Celsius and rarely goes above 29 degrees Celsius. The sun shines for 10 hours every single day, making Negril's spring warm and sunny. April sees moderate (for the region) rainfalls with 107 mm of precipitation and brief rainfalls during 7 days of the month.
Where to Stay
Luxurious accommodation doesn't have to be expensive, especially during off-season, Travellers Beach Resort is a case in point; offering budget accommodation in April. A fancy hotel, the Travellers Beach Resort offers astounding value for money thanks to its numerous amenities and top tier facilities that make many tourists consider it a home away from home. The hotel is equipped with a spa, salon, fitness centre, swim-up pool bar, nightly entertainment, and a restaurant serving both local and international cuisine. Rooms range from standard and deluxe to larger suites and cabins to families or couples looking for a bit extra comfort. Negril's Seven Mile Beach is also popular for destination weddings, and you can hire a top-notch coordinator from Travellers, complete with wedding or honeymoon package.
Other than the golden stretch of seven miles that is Negril beach, there are numerous beaches to enjoy on Jamaica. Boston Bay Beach is an uncrowded beach perfect for swimmers and surfers--and also wins points as the birthplace of jerk cuisine. The sea water temperature is inviting at 27 degrees Celsius. Another place to avoid the crowds is Treasure Beach on the south coast of Jamaica. It's a much slower, laid-back community, with fishers and farmers--a great chance to mingle with the locals.
Seeking to enjoy Negril's vibrant nightlife? The Jungle Disco and Sports Bar is definitely the place to go when the sun goes down. Repeatedly voted as "The Best Nightclub in the Caribbean", the Jungle is a hot and sexy Caribbean club that attracts classy tourists and party-loving locals alike. Drinks are cheap and fun is aplenty at the Jungle, where the music NEVER stops throughout the whole tourist season.
For those who wish some outdoors fun but aren't up to the challenge of exploring caves with snorkelling, Bloody Bay presents a good (and milder) alternative. Contrary to its name, Bloody Bay is a relaxing beach that is largely isolated from the mainstream tourism circuit, visited only by a handful of tourists at a time; perfect for some secluded sunbathing.
