Jamaica, located
in the Caribbean Sea, is 145 kilometers south of Cuba, and 191 kilometers west
of Hispaniola. They're known to be a bilingual country, with English being
their official language, yet Patwa (an English-based creole) being their
primary spoken language. Although reaching their independence on August 6th of
1962, Jamaica is a parliamentary democracy and constitutional monarchy. Queen
Elizabeth II is the monarch and Patrick Allen is their Governor-General.
Traveling to Jamaica 🌊
A flight from
Atlanta to Montego Bay Jamaica, with an approximate four-month purchase
advance, will cost you around $326.00USD round trip, per person. For this, you
will need a passport. Their currency is the Jamaican dollar (which is divided
into 100 cents), although they will accept purchases with US dollars. For a
marvelous experience you can stay at any of their Sandos All-Inclusive Resorts.
You may explore the beauties of the island by visiting the famous Dunn's River
Falls. With hundreds of fun activities to choose from, you can enjoy this
paradise with some parasailing, jet-skiing, and even zip-lining.
