Discover The Beauty of Jamaica

You know when you travel to Jamaica the first time everything is so different and sometimes it kind of scares you. First of all the traffic - driving on the left side is for us very difficult to follow. But the friendly inhabitants of the island are a blessing for every tourist.




Where to stay in Jamaica especially in Kingston the capital is for every tourist a question before starting the journey. When coming to Kingston you land from the seaside and the other part of the city is surrounded from mountains. There is no other expression that Mother Nature has blessed the island with magnificent waterfalls and natural wonders.

The highest point of this beautiful island with about 3 million people is the Blue Mountain Peak with 2,256 meters. This island attracts lots of tourist all year round from all over the world. Many tourist come for romance, or weddings or honeymoons. They stretch out on the silky beaches or swim in the blue Caribbean Sea. Warm and fun-loving Jamaicans guarantee a pleasant stay and a memorable vacation that you never will forget.

Jamaica has won fame through their sport athletes as Usain Bold, Asafa Powel and Shelly-Ann Fraser and many years back Merlene Ottey with the record of the most World Championship medals (14). It is astonishing that a island with only a 3 million habitants holds many sprint records and gold medals. But Jamaica is also home of Lennox Lewis the former undisputed world heavy-weight boxing champion.

When coming to Kingston one of the best hotel locations is The Jamaica Pegasus. The friendly people and the good service is always something to remember to. The buffet they serve during lunch is delicious and pricy. And with smiling elegance of the people it is just something you’ll never forget.


The big lobby room with the 24 seven coffee-shop that means 24hour service you never get hungry you can order even at 2 or 3 o’clock in the morning. But who is hungry at this time of the day…oh, don’t forget the nights can be long in Jamaica and after a night-long dance or night bar visits you might be hungry and thirsty but this in no problem at all in the Jamaica Pegasus they are always happy to make your stay enjoyable. Think twice when planning your next vacation this might be an alternative.

There Exists Only One Pearl In The Caribbean – Jamaica


What do you think when you hear the word Jamaica, what first comes to your mind is the worlds fastest Athlete, Reggae, Rum, Red Stripe beer, Rastafari just to mention some.

Coming to Jamaica is always a nice adventure, even in these modern times.
The word Jamaica sounds like colorful dressing of the people, sun, reggae and lots of more. When thinking of the word Jamaica it is or it sounds like some magic maybe – Voodoo?

I just remember the movie with Steven Seagal where he was persued from a Jamaican drug dealer and Steven didn’t live in peace until he killed that person or I think there were two brothers. Anyway, this is an island where you have all year round sun and last not least where you can lay on the beach the whole year. It is just wonderful. It sounds like paradise on earth. But what am I telling you…don’t believe me just go for it and try it out.

For the coffee drinker is important to say, that Jamaica has one of the best coffee – “Mountain Blue” a famous coffee that is being exported to all over the world. That is what I like from Jamaica…even when drinking coffee you taste that black magic…don’t believe me – taste it and tell me afterward what do you think about it. As a coffee lover you won’t regret it. You feel the magic all over the island.

Jamaica is really blessed from Nature, you have miles of white-sand beaches, numerous rivers and waterfalls, and mountain and valleys. You can look at the natural wonders and also at the man-made works of art almost all over the country. But what most attracts me is their cuisine - a real ‘paladar’.


Jamaica is a pearl of the Caribbean with its famous Montego Bay where the day never ends. But to live up in Montego Bay you might need some energy pills or energy drinks to keep with the path. But you are on vacation and you should really forget everything for a few days.

Talk to you soon
