Abahati Hotel, Kingston, For less than $50 per night... All you can eat (local) crab feast on most nights for less than $10

Yes, there's the beach and the mountains, but there's also peace and quiet in the seeming nothingness of the jungles of Jamaica.

When shooting pictures in Jamaica, always ask permission first and use a pocket camera... The "professional" looking camera tends to put people off.

Paradise hotel (Bed & Breakfast) in Oracabess, Jamaica. Rustic & cheap.

Nice to have a beach to yourself.

Wild flowers... They are everywhere in Jamaica!

You know about the beaches of Jamaica, but, the mountains are just as beautiful!

As a photographer, Take advantage of the FREE park in St Mary, Jamaica: Castleton Gardens. The beauty and flowers are amazing.

Germans and Jamaicans. What a combination, but, there you have it. It happens frequently at the Paradise Hotel. NO. I just visit often, I don't own it.

If (and when) you do meet a celebrity at one of the inexpensive rustic hotels, at least pretend not to know who they are. That's why they are there. To just relax and be as normal as they can. Famous people who want to be noticed go to the big hotels for glorification.

Entertain yourself with what you find on the beach and with local customs in Jamaica.

Jamaica. Use common sense, make REAL friends and eat local and you can save lots of money.

Use common sense in Jamaica. Not everyone you meet is your friend, but, there are more beautiful people than there are the not-so-nice people! She is one of my friends in Castleton Gardens, St Mary, Jamaica.

During the mango season. mangoes are everywhere!!! They fall to the ground and rot. If you love mangoes, you wont starve. mangoes are a great source for vitamins.
