Is Negril safe for solo female travelers?

Negril, offers a unique blend of pristine beaches, energetic music scenes, and friendly locals. However, like any other destination, it does require caution. While the majority of locals are hospitable and friendly, cases of harassment have been reported occasionally. It's advisable to stay in the tourist areas, not to walk alone at night, and not to flash expensive items. Avoiding display of wealth can help prevent unwanted attention. If approached by vendors, a firm 'no' usually suffices. Also, legal issues can occur if offered drugs, which are widespread. As always, basic mindfulness about personal safety can go a long way.
