<P>hey sophie-i hear where your coming from..I'm a newbie in that area-but sure jitters -who i consider expert in that area would know-as well as oh liz and i would hope others out there on this board..<BR>there are some beautiful beaches in PA that come to mind-i'm thinking frenchmans cove or san san--i forget which one them-but they have loungers,drink and beautiful calm water (most time)..<BR>like Macy said, 7mile certainly has the calm (the waters at least)..<BR>i know you all drive-so thats a huge plus..<BR>There is place i've really wanted to stay at out near port maria called<BR>strawberry fields forever..(goggle it for website).i've never been but looks great..nice little cottages and i beleive a nice swimming cove-maybe you could go there few nites then on to pa and stay at hotel near the beaches i mentioned above..<BR>You all would have a blast driving around and discovering the beauty of the eastern side...its worlds away from Negril on the beauty/chill factor..<BR>will wait to see what Jitters and others have to contribute..but yes, if burned out in negril -time to see the other Jamaica and experience it before you throw in the jam towel..
