You're advised to stay away from the inner city areas of Kingston and New Kingston and avoid wandering around alone at night in Ochos Rios, Montego Bay and Negril. Any time you are out after dark you should do so only in the safety of numbers. Go with your gut - if you are heading into an area that you feel may be unsafe, avoid it. Better to be safe than sorry.
After reading all of this you may be concerned that Jamaica is too unsafe of a place to visit, on the contrary. Jamaica is a country too beautiful to be missed. From towering mountain ranges to generations - old plantations to cascading waterfalls and pristine beaches, not to mention some good ackee and saltfish! There are plenty of safe places to visit within the country and as long as you use your common sense and know what things to watch for and avoid, you will enjoy an amazing and unforgettable trip.
