![]() We were in Jamaica approximately 15 years ago and I would never go back. I found it was too crowded and you could not leave your resort without being literally accosted by street vendors and drug dealers. We spent a week in Ocho Rios and a week in Negril.
Ocho Rios was completely awful, whereas Negril was somewhat better because at least you had access to the beach. I cannot see that this problem would have changed with time other than to get worse as there would be even more people there now. A woman actually grabbed me on the street and took me into an alley so that she could braid my hair for money. Thing is - I did not want my hair braided. The best snorkelling I have done was in Playa del Carmen in Mexico. I would recommend Mexico, both for the value of the dollar and the excellent people.

![]() Cuba is nice, and some areas have reefs right off the beach. We spent a week down there this year, and our resort had a great area right of the beach with only 3-4' of water!
