Negril is very popular and has grown rapidly in recent years. Most of this stems from the early 1960s when it was 'discovered' by the hippies who set up a colony. Negril is the main resort area on the island's west coast, and extends from the nineteenth-century Negril Lighthouse in the parish of Westmoreland in the south, to Bloody Bay in Hanover Parish in the north. Negril is very popular and has grown rapidly in recent years. Most of this stems from the early 1960s when new roads and drainage canals were built, and it was then 'discovered' by the hippies who set up a colony.

Their easy-going attitude remains today throughout the town that stretched for miles along the bay. Resort development is carefully controlled, and no building by law is allowed to be taller than the tallest palm. Apart from the beautiful beaches, the waters offer world-class diving and a wealth of watersports. Sport Negril has a spectacular beach and four iron shore cliffs which offers sailing, water-skiing, deep-sea fishing, scuba diving, parasailing and windsurfing. Landsports include beach volleyball, tennis, soccer in the sand, darts, croquet, and cricket. Jamaica is one of the Caribbean Islands for the ICC Cricket World Cup 2007.
