We spent a whole day at Frenchman Cove, and we had an awesome time. The property is beautiful with a lot of trees, especially fruit trees. There is a river on the property that meets the sea, which is pretty awesome. You can swim in either one. I enjoyed the river water more than the sea water because I was under the shades of the tree while I swam in the water. But I must say that the river water was very cold. The sea water was warm, salty, and had a lot of waves that my hubby enjoyed.
The food wasn't bad at all. We had jerk chicken and festivals. Overall, it was a great experience.
One of Portland's most prized gems, Frenchman Cove is. I will say that it's one of the more unique beaches, due to it having both the beach and a river mixed in it.
Being that this beach has it's reputation to keep up they don't slack off at all when it come to maintenance. The environment is clean all round.
The beach area was nice, though I found it to be a bit too shallow to truly enjoy. The river was what I actually liked, I found myself spending more time there. I enjoyed the fact that there was the option of both bodies of water.
They do provide lawn chairs, but it's at an additional cost, which I found dissappointing given the cost to enter.
Food is sold there, but I didn't purchase any. So I can't say anything on it's quality.
It has gotten more expensive over years with it now being 2500 JMD for locals. I don't think it has to be for that price but I dont make the rules here.
All n all, still a wonderful prestine beach...
