Ochos Rios Beach Question

I was wondering if anyone can recommend a beach not too, too far from the port (don't mind hopping in a taxi, but not for 1/2 hour ride) where I can find a beach that has both chairs AND umbrellas. I am travelling with a very fair skinned family.

So far it looks like Bamboo and Turtle (Ochos Rio Bay) Beaches only have chairs. Can anyone help me?

Thanks!! :)

Would also like more information on this. Following as well.

following.. i'm interested as well

The margaritaville actually has a nice beach but not a great view (in an industrial harbor type setting). The sand is soft and they have a lot of chairs. Bamboo is faily nice, but rough gravely sand and no good snorkeling. Food is better at bamboo. The jewel runaway bay has a nice beach and water park but is 30 minutes away. You might want to try the jewel dunns river for a day pass.

Not sure how old the fair skin family members are but The Jewel Dunn's River is adults only.

What about an all inclusive? http://jamaicacruiseexcursions.com/OchoRiosBeachBreak.htm

Just write and ask them.....

I looked up some beaches about 18-21 minutes away from the port in Ocho Rios since I will be going there in a couple of weeks. I am not very adventurous and my husband and I rather do something more low pace. I read that Bamboo beach and Turtle beach were somewhat crowded but not too bad. The two beaches I found other than those two were: Sugar Pot Beach, and James Bond Beach. They seemed beautiful, but I am unsure about whether or not they provide lounge chairs and umbrellas. Trip Advisor did give both of them really good ratings. So maybe look into those beaches.

I have not been here yet, but going here soon.

Doctors Cave Beach, take a look....

Doctors Cave is one of our favorites! It's a great beach with a restaurant and an awesome roped off area for swimming (no giant fish can get through). We've been there many times. It's near Montego Bay though and further from Ocho Rios. Right down the street from it is Margaritaville.

The Ocho Rios Bay Beach is within walking distance from the Cruise Ship with chairs for rent and Coconut Tree as Umbrella.

We are headed to Ocho Rios in February 2018. Can someone tell me what the cost is to rent beach chairs and umbrella's. Also is there WiFi? Thank you

We were under a tree at turtle beach. They have tables too.

As you can see, turtle beach was not crowded.

Bamboo Blu Beach is a good choice, chairs cost about 6 and it share beach or it's next to the RIU hotel plus no charge for entry
