Just wondering if we might find a nice place by making our own way in Montego Bay. I'm concerned about safety and pan-handlers & worse, so I'm hesitant to take a taxi to who-knows-where.

Anybody recommend a tour group near the port?
Anybody recommend a beach? Or Hotel w/private Beach for fee?

Just lookin for alternatives to Carnival's excursions. We're on Carnival's Conquest in late March '07.

We have taken taxi's all around the island with no trouble.
But on most beaches you will find the people trying to sell you things.

The Only place this was a real problem for me was in Ocho Rios.

There are some hotels in Montigo Bay, I do not know of the name of it, but on the left side of the bay there is a large pink hotel. it has a large pool and fountain. We once spent a few enjoyable hours there.
Also, although I have not gone to it.. This is supposedly the most visited place in Jamaica.. "Doctors Cave" It looks like it has everything you are looking for.

here is the link.
