We had a great time here. It's such a novelty - and a really relaxing bar. So fun to be surrounded by sea on all sides! If possible, take something from your hometown to leave behind. We were disappointed we didn't do this - but the walls are adorned with cool things from around the walls. We combined a trip... More

We booked with One Stop and took the drive from Negril to Parottee Bay. Our boat driver "Basil" was excellent and we had a gorgeous and smooth ride out to Pelican Bar. When we got there Sandals catamaran was there and they go on Wed. and Friday. We waited until they left to get some time to ourselves here. I... More

This place was amazing! We took a little boat over, it was about a 20 minute ride for us. It was so cool just to be in this environment, which was like it's own little world. Had some red stripe and just enjoyed the atmosphere out on the deck!! This is definetly not your normal bar scene, but how many... More

amazing place - like something out of another world. very basic -- don't look for frills and typical bar atmosphere. red stripes and a wonderful breeze. swim out front despite being in the middle of the ocean. very much worth the boat ride. More

I'm going to make this review short: "Heaven on earth!!" We spent 3-4 hours there. Met Floyd, and he is such an awesome guy! The sunset at PB was the best we've seen in Jamaica. Please do yourself a favor and go to PB when you visit Negril/Jamaica. Why would you want to miss a unique bar like this?? Caution:... More

We took a trip to the Pelican Bar after visting YS Falls with Reggae Tours with some friends and I mjust say I have never quite experienced drinking a beer in a bar that is one mile out at sea. I wonder how it has stood for so long and hope that it is there for years to come so... More

We visited the Pelican Bar on a day trip from Negril. We hired a private driver, Kingsley from Take Care Tours. The drive out was great and then we took a boat out to the bar. The bar is one of the coolest things I have ever seen. We could have spent most of a day out there but after... More
