Font Hill Beach, Beach in Saint Elizabeth Parish, Jamaica

Font Hill Beach extends along the south coast with golden sand and offers a roped-off swimming area near a shallow reef.

The beach operated as a public park until 2013, when concerns about development plans by a Spanish hotel chain led to its closure.

The surrounding wildlife sanctuary serves as a nesting ground for hawksbill and loggerhead turtles that return to lay eggs in their birthplace.

The beach measures half a mile in length and contains beach vines, Leucaena trees, grasses, and shrubs covering twenty percent of the area.

The Font Hill Wildlife Sanctuary spans 125 acres within a 3000-acre property, providing habitat for indigenous species and winter migratory birds.
