  • Tip Rating:
  • Almost everyone that lives in this area has white ancestors. It is said that a group of Scottish sailors were shipwrecked near here, last century.
    I wouldn't bring this up as a custom except for the fact that this is probably the reason that the kids do not run out as you drive by saying Whitey!
    They do this in other parts of Jamaica.

    Catch of the day
  • Tip Rating:
  • The fishermen in this area go out to sea early every morning and return at sunset with their catch. Each bay has its own fishermen's cooperative.

    Donkey Women
  • Tip Rating:
  • Every morning the women ride down from the hills to sell fresh fruit and vegetables, on their donkets. They are called donkey women. We saw them but I didn't want to be rude and stick a camera in their face.

    Sandy Bank Basic School
    The children at Sandy Bank Basic school are absolutely precious! Every time I return to Treasure Beach, I'm compelled to venture into all the schools.
