Jamaica is often misunderstood. Few travellers realise that beyond the stereotypes, Jamaica has sandy beaches, the 960-foot-tall Dunn’s River waterfall, calypso and reggae beats under fire sunset skies, glassy coral waters and endless hidden mangroves. For such a small island, Jamaica has had a massive influence on the world, socially and historically. Of course, that doesn’t mean Jamaica is without its problems. But Jamaica has produced some of the greatest artists, beats and sportsmen and women in the world. It has inspired writers, poets, artists and filmmakers, and just uttering its name conjures up images of rum shacks and lazy, hazy summers.
