Jamaica is a small but complex island, famous for her beaches and music. There are certainly more than enough stretches of white sand, bedecked by palm trees and lapped by turquoise waters. And reggae, Jamaica's other celebrated tradition, is alive and happening. But a good guide is as necessary to find your way to the Blue Mountains and the Back River, check out the wildlife, and understand the island's culture as it is to navigate your way through Kingston to the best reggae haunts, drinking holes, and Jamaican food stands. Rough Guide's Jamaica does justice to all the major resorts and beaches as well as to the country's lesser-known charms.
