White Sand

White Sand is a beach along Jamaica's coast where white sand meets the Caribbean Sea. The shoreline provides open spaces for swimming, sunbathing, and various water activities.

The beach became a major destination in the early 1900s as Jamaica developed its tourism industry. Its natural features made it an important draw for international travelers seeking coastal experiences.

Local food vendors operate along the shoreline, selling traditional Jamaican dishes prepared fresh throughout the day. This informal dining culture shapes how locals and visitors spend their time on the sand.

Facilities like restrooms, changing areas, and equipment rentals are available for water sports. Morning visits tend to be less crowded and offer better conditions for swimming and water activities.

Colorful fish and small coral formations live just offshore in shallow water. Many visitors miss this underwater world even though it lies right near the shoreline.
