Beautiful, tranquil, and colorful Jamaica is the gem of the Caribbean, offering a perfect trip to paradise. Much of Jamaica's extraordinary landscape is a gently rolling one with a pastoral serenity similiar to Ireland and New Zealand, but with decidely warmer weather. The reach of the island's green valleys and golden beaches sweeps upward into majestic, blue tinged mountain peaks, creating panoramic images of rare beauty. Caressing Caribbean breezes add a soft, cooling touch to its near perfect climate all year round. Outside of the cyclical rainy seasons in May and October, Jamaica is bathed in radiant sunshine with only occassional precipitation.
