Montego Bay is lively, convenient and resort-focused, with easy airport access, great beaches, shopping, nightlife, restaurants and a wide variety of tours and attractions. Negril is more relaxed and beach-focused, famous for Seven Mile Beach, spectacular sunsets, cliffside bars and an easygoing atmosphere.
