Bluefields Beach:

A Hidden Gem of Jamaica's South Coast​

​

Looking for a beach day that feels calm, local, and truly Jamaican? Just 15 minutes from The Crown, Bluefields Beach offers a stunning stretch of coastline where soft white sands meet gentle Caribbean waves, framed by coconut trees and village charm.

Unlike the crowded resort beaches, Bluefields feels real—alive with families enjoying the sea, fishermen pulling in their catch, and the occasional sound of music drifting from the nearby road. It's a favorite among locals for good reason.

The water is calm and swimmable, making it perfect for cooling off under the sun. Natural shade from the trees makes it easy to relax for hours, and it’s not uncommon to find local vendors nearby offering fresh seafood and snacks. The beach is easy to get to, with space to park and no need to fight the tourist crowds.

Bluefields also carries a quiet kind of history—it’s one of Jamaica’s oldest coastal communities, with ties to 17th-century Dutch explorer Abraham Blauvelt. The bay has seen centuries of life pass through, yet it continues to hold its laid-back, untouched spirit.

Best of all, it’s close enough to The Crown for a spontaneous afternoon swim or a golden-hour stroll. Let us help you plan your visit—we’re happy to arrange transport, pack a picnic, or point you toward the perfect spot to lay your towel.
