St. Elizabeth

Treasure Beach, then the rest of the south coast.

Calabash Bay P.A., Treasure Beach, St. Elizabeth, Jamaica. The villa is in the hills and gardens above the bays, not on a hotel strip. You will drive a little. That is the point.

From the driveway

  1. 01

    Smurf's Cafe

    A short drive away, on Church Street. Breakfast only, usually 7 to 1. Ackee and saltfish, cooked to order. Cash is required. Locals call it Dawn's Place.

  2. 02

    Treasure Beach

    The fishing communities along this south coast. Brown sand, rum shops, no cruise pier.

  3. 03

    Jack Sprat

    The seafood restaurant people on this coast actually mean when they say 'let's eat.' Minutes from the bay.

  4. 04

    The Buttonwood

    The Buttonwood was once a Treasure Beach landmark. It is no longer there. The mural on the stair wall is a reminder of it.

  5. 05

    Pelican Bar

    A shack on a sandbar. Boats leave from Parottee and Frenchman's Bay. Go in the morning before the trip fills.

  6. 06

    A longer day

    YS Falls, the Black River, and Appleton Estate are all day trips from St. Elizabeth, not overnight hauls.
