Vlog: Priceless at Montego Bay, Jamaica

June 23rd, 2008 • Mark Guim • Filed Under •

Yet another video taken with the Nokia N95 8GB from my vacation last week. This time is from Montego Bay, Jamaica. Yeah Man! Hope you enjoy it.

Video Formats: Web high quality, Mobile, Youtube

As the cruise ported Montego Bay, there were really only a few places to tell the taxi drivers where to go: food at Margaritaville, shop in downtown, or bum at the beach. If you are traveling with family, prepare to spend money on small things such as beach entrance fees and taxis that charge per person.

The beach was clean and not bombarded with vendors. However, I was surprised the security guard was one of many that asked me if I wanted to smoke marijuana and sing with Bob Marley! LOL it’s like shopping for fake bags here in Chinatown New York City… the sellers find you.

Montego Bay was not bad, but I wouldn’t go back if given the choice. I would recommend future cruisers to do an excursion with the cruise ship instead of touring the island by yourself because there is little to see.

Video was taken with the Nokia N95 8GB and edited on iMovie 08. The Nokia N95 8GB captures 640×480 pixels resolution at 30 FPS.

    @James yep. Enjoyed the clear water! I still think Boracay was the best beach I’ve been to.

    Hey, were you on the Freedom of the Seas? Stef and I were on Freedom from June 8-15. Nelson is doing the same cruise right now.

    LOL. Everyone smokes weed in Jamaica! IF you want a great island to go to I recommend my sister island Tobago (of Trinidad and Tobago). It’s pretty cool. But if you seem too white you will get charged EXTRA! So try to sound local
