A Caribbean Jamaica travel offers so much more than rum, sun
and reggae. When it comes to diversity, few Caribbean
islands can come neck to neck with this island country.
Jamaica’s
motto is “Out of Many, One People” and this saying can very well apply to the
very heart and essence of Jamaica.
While good beaches and great food take up much of the day for the typical
vacationer, a Caribbean Jamaica travel could also offer a lot of sightseeing,
especially in Montego Bay (or just “MoBay” to locals), which is home to a large
concentration of great houses, formerly homes of the wealthy plantation owners
whose kingdoms were powered by sugarcane. Jamaica

great diversity, here are the things you should know before you go on that
dream Caribbean Jamaica travel:
Banks/Currency
Money is not much of a problem when you go on a Caribbean
Jamaica travel. There are licensed cambios and bureaux de change in all resort
areas. They are easily and readily accessible, so you don’t need to get
Jamaican money before you get to the island. And if you’re worried that your
resort doesn’t have money exchange, banks in the area can exchange all
currencies.
The official rate of exchange varies daily so if you want a
rate that suits you, it’s not a bad idea to shop around first. In addition,
many Jamaican ATMs accept international bank cards with Visa, Mastercard,
Cirus, and Plus logos. Credit card advances? Banks give that too, as well as
change traveler’s checks, and offer other financial services.
Climate
Like any typical Caribbean island, Jamaica
has a tropical climate at sea level and a temperate climate towards the highlands
of the interior. One popular Jamaican poem sums it all pretty accurately: “We
have neither summer nor winter/Neither autumn nor spring….” This paragraph is

So when you go on a Caribbean Jamaica travel, bring clothes
that are suited for tropical climate. Swim suits are a must if you’re crazy
about water sports, but bring a jacket or a light sweater if you included
hiking in your Caribbean Jamaica travel itinerary.
Communications
Being a popular Caribbean destination
and all, Jamaica
is well connected to the rest of the world. So when you go on a Caribbean
Jamaica travel, expect direct international telephone service 24 hours a day.
There are also telephone operators who will gladly facilitate collect, third
party, or credit card calls, too.
Most hotels, resorts, and parish libraries offer Internet
and email access, as well as fax, telegrams, and cables. There are three daily
national newspapers and five weekend newspapers, and of course, other
international editions of major newspapers and magazines, such as the New York
Times, TIME, The Economist, and the London Times.
Driving
Do you prefer to take a 4WD-drive to your hotel destination? One thing
you need to remember while driving on a Caribbean Jamaica travel is that
driving in this island country is on the LEFT. Some flexibility is required to
avoid collisions with pedestrians, cows, goats, chickens, and other domestic
animals, but the roads aren’t too bad. And Jamaica has over 17,000
kilometers of road networks connecting all major towns and cities. This
