Just curious where did you read a travel warning for Jamaica?? My daughter is looking at having a wedding there...my hubby and I are concerned about Jamaica. Would like to find concrete info on the safety there.

Thanks!

I read the travel warning for Jamaica, but it doesn't mention Falmouth. We've been to Mexico while it's in travel warning and never felt unsafe.

I read if I step outside of the secured area of Falmouth pier, I may encounter aggressive vendors. Do they include Taxi drivers and tour operators? If I just refuse them politely, will I be endangered? I'm trying to decide if I should just choose a tour inside the port area, or go out for more options? (Is there any)?

Or, if we just want to explore the town of Falmouth, or walk to the nearest beach, or go out to catch a taxi, will we be approached by people trying to sell us something or attempt to rob?

Thanks,

April

Just wondering how safe it is to just get off the boat and walk around at these ports.

Is there shopping near the pier? Beaches? We have excursions booked other days. Wanting to save $ for those days.

Anything that's a must-do in Puerta Vallarta or Cabo?

TIA!

Anyone know of a nice hotel resort with a beach that you can get a day pass at? Preferably something fairly close to the cruise terminal. Thanks!
