Jamaica Shopping
Shopping in jamaica goes beyond traditional souvenirs to cutting-edge designs and fashions.
Jamaica is a destination for beach, nature, culture, music and sunshine lovers. But whilst visitors may not think of Jamaica as a shopping destination, the creativity and entrepreneurship of its artisans have shaped it into a regional shopping hub.
From duty-free jewellery stores to stylish boutiques, plazas and craft markets, there are shopping areas to suit all tastes and pockets.
“As everyone is always on the go and decisions are sometimes spur of the moment, I find it much more efficient to have items ready to purchase,” says Janel Jolly, the creative talent behind the tropical swimwear brand Jae Jolly, who operates a private showroom in Kingston.
For all Things Jamaican, head to the stores of the same name. The retailer partners with local artisans to promote their products using larger channels. The services offered include marketing and retailing through the chain of stores, expos, trade shows and promotions.
Within Kingston, a number of boutiques have created a retail haven, but Jamaica’s talented designers have set up shop all across the island.
Visitors will also find an array of handmade crafts and jewellery around almost every corner. Our talented artisans have a style and aesthetic that’s unique, making our local products distinctively attractive. Craft markets and gift shops are quite popular, and programs like Christmas in July assist local businesses by promoting them on a wider platfrom.
Ask any Jamaican and they’ll tell you: They are a people serious about good times
and exciting adventures.
and exciting adventures.
Seafarers often head to Bull Bay — located on the island’s south-east coast — for some gnarly surfing. Make a splash with Chukka Caribbean Adventures, whose tour packages include both land- and water-based activities. For the best of both worlds,take on the Horseback Ride N Swim, which takes guests through an 18th-century sugar plantation and culminates with an exhilarating ride in the waves. Dolphin Cove has two locations in Jamaica — in Ocho Rios and Lucea, Hanover. The latter houses the largest dolphin lagoon in the world.
Montego Bay Marine Park is a top spot for aquatic adventures. Jamaican resorts feature plenty of water-based activities, including but not limited to catamaran cruises, glass-bottom boat rides, stand-up paddle boarding and snorkelling.
Don’t miss out on Jamaica’s growing motorsports competitions. Rally Jamaica is the second-longest running international rally in the Caribbean, and one of the the region’s biggest annual motorsports events.
Jamaica has also seen an upsurge in pastimes that promote health and wellness, and almost every month racers can partake in street runs of varying distances, from 5K to 13K or half-marathons.
Jamaica is home to some of the world’s most celebrated golf courses; think verdant lawns manicured to perfection with crystal-blue waters as the backdrop. Golfers can enjoy a luxe sporting experience at Cinnamon Hills Golf Course and White Witch Golf Course in Rose Hall, Montego Bay or the Tryall Club in Hanover, amongst others.
