Welcome to Jamaica, the most popular Caribbean Island
to visit for people of all ages. Jamaica is the birth place of Bob Marley
and James Bond. Jamaica is one of the
most "sophisticated and exotic islands in the Caribbean." The beaches are
considered among the most pure and beautiful. The crystal blue waters and
white sand make a visit to the beach a delightful experience.
Jamaica has about
14 parishes, each having its own flavor. Although the majority of the population is
from African decent, there are people from European, Arabic, Chinese and East
Indian ancestry.
Jamaica
is believed to have been formed from volcanoes billions of years ago.
Originally, Jamaica was a rough, rugged land, but eventually the climate and
soil change to provide conditions very suitable for the lush flora that
can been seen today.
There are over 3000 varieties of flowers that can be found that includes 800
species that are found only in Jamaica. It also has a lovely climate with
an average of 77 inches of rain, mostly in October and May. The average
temperature is 80 F.

white sanded beaches Jamaica is waiting for you!
