The last time I went which was a few years ago, they stressed not going around by yourself. Driving to my hotel you passed thru lots of poverty and people just hanging around. The hotel was all inclusive and you could book tours and activities thru the hotel which was great because I was travelling alone.
Yes, be very careful about drugs. When I was leaving Jamaica they first had our suitcases outside the plane and this official was urging his dog to inspect them.

Well I hope it is not that dangerous over there as you are saying..am more of a voyager than just a tourist in all inclusive hotels..
If you're going on a tour that is not link to a hotel or tour campany be careful. Tours are 100% safe with these companies..If not, find a Jamaican who u know. It is safe on the north coast where u should be touring. You'll be irie man!!! its not that bad.
Come on.... You came by yourself and you're home in one piece right? without harm. ... Im going to Miami tomorrow and I'm not worried about terrorist. I hope I dont see Bin Ladin at airport.
