First note when looking at reviews here some are not for the Blue Hole near Negril but rather for the Blue Hole near ocherios the two are quite different from one another.
The same goes for some of the pictures loaded.
So for the blue hole near Negril a few facts.
1. If you are self driving and you come from a country where the roads are in good condition and the drivers are not suicidal you might find the drive there challenging.
2. I did drive it in a normal four door Sudan car so it can be done.
3. The hole itself is just that a hole. There are not a lot of options other than jumping into that one hole.
4. I liked it - it is beautiful.
5. It was not very crowded and the staff/locals were not as pushy or as hustly as I’ve experienced elsewhere on the island.
6. 20$ per person cash only. You will be unhappy if you go all the way there and have no cash on you.
7. The facilities are basic but work and the area is not completely free of litter but not nearly as bad as many other attractions on the island.
8. There is a swimming pool that you can chill next to a bar restaurant that will serve you food and drink (again cash is king).
9. If you smoke marijuana they are pretty casual here in that regard.
10. No real life guards or controls in place.
11. Not a place I’d take young children to.
12. All in all we enjoyed it but I can see how it might not be for everyone.
