The island of Jamaica has been described as one of the most beautiful and diverse places to visit. Cheap flights to Jamaica leave from most airports in and around the UK and Europe. Flights to Jamaica will land at one of the island's two international airports. On the west side of the island Jamaica flights land at Montego Bay's Sangster International and on the eastern side in the islands capital Kingston, flights go in to Norman Manly International. Once outside the arrival area you can get a taxi at the taxi ranks, or you can make arrangements with Sun Tours or your hotel for airport-to-hotel transfer.

In Jamaica, public transportation is provided by transport authority buses, which travel to most parts of the island. However one of the best ways to get around is to hire a local taxi to be your tour guide and transportation. This option is not as costly as holiday-makers might think. It's about £2 for up to 10 miles and rates can be negotiated with your driver. This is a convenient way to get around the local area for exploration.

Although Jamaica is famous for its friendly people, the sea, sand and fun there is also a more tranquil side to Jamaica. One attraction is the Famous Dunn's River Falls located in the town of Ocho Rios on the north side of the island. There is nothing better than climbing the beautiful falls with the cool mountain water running over your feet. And if that's too strenuous for you then try visiting the caves at Green Grotto in Montego Bay, the natural formations show just how beautiful nature can be.

While you're in the town of Ocho Rios why not shop for souvenirs at the craft market. Or you can try shopping at the Holiday Village in Montego Bay, Half Moon shopping village or Constant Spring Shopping Plaza. The night-life is always lively and you can visit Amnesia night-club, Coral Cliff or The Jungle Bar and Grill to name but a few. Clubs and entertainment can go on all night but most close at around 4 a.m.

Food is a must in Jamaica and the combination of spices makes a simple barbeque so Caribbean. Visit one of the island's renowned restaurants such as The Ruins in Ocho Rios or Island Grill in Kingston; they come highly recommended by locals and visitors alike. So, find your airfare to Jamaica now and come to experience the island life for a couple of weeks.
