Farquhars Beach, Fishing beach in Clarendon Parish, Jamaica.

The beach stretches for 500 meters along the coast with black and grey fine grain sand, bordered by Round Hill limestone forest to the west.

The beach area developed into a common-pool resource system during the 1980s, when researchers from Indiana University established management protocols for local fishing activities.

Local fishing teams follow a traditional 'first in time, first in right' system to determine access to preferred fishing spots along the coastline.

Visitors can access the beach via Milk River Main Road, with sufficient space for vehicle parking and basic amenities including food vendors and restrooms.

The beach features a natural combination of mangrove forests, coconut trees, and acacia vegetation, creating distinct ecological zones for marine life.
