Treasure Beach

Slow Down on the Black Sands

Along the southern coast, Treasure Beach is about as peaceful as Jamaican beaches get. A few well-known guesthouses and resorts are located in this fishing community, but you'll probably see more locals than tourists around, especially when compared with the rest of the island. The black-sand beaches, teeming with shorebirds, are attractive, and happily there's not much to do but catch the breeze, mingle with local families, and enjoy fresh seafood.
