A Comprehensive Video-Photo-Map Encyclopedia - Directory of the "Capital of Casual" - the Best Place in Jamaica to Totally Unwind
Relaxation - Quietness - Friendliness - Peace
This is a comprehensive visitor's guide website containing informative videos - photographs - maps of all of the tourist-oriented enterprises which may be found within the delightful Jamaican tourist town of Negril.
We have dubbed this visual encyclopedia a "Vidia" because "Vidia" is the Latin verb for "to see".
Seeing Negril as it actually is - is just exactly what this visual encyclopedia does for you!
It allows you "to see" the living realities of each and every one of this town's 600 + enterprises in beautiful photos such as the one above or in interesting videos like the one below.
You can see a whole lot more of the town of Negril right here than you can when you're actually there!
This is because when you are in Negril you will not see any large, high-rise buildings anywhere since every building is required by law to be constructed no higher than the height of a tall palm tree.
Consequently, your view of everything is limited because everything is built so low and then it's either hidden behind high walls or dense foliage (both of which front yhr road entrances to most of Negril's tourist enterprises). Therefore, in some ways nearly everything to be found in Negril is better shown to you through our website's visuals.
Our Vidia contains single page articles containing many photos and videos which beautifully portray the living realities of each and every one of Negril's enterprises to potential tourists.
This is a new kind of a free encyclopedia that has been made possible by the advent of world-wide broadband access to the internet and its many free software services (such as You Tube and Wkimapia) which we have used extensively to build this website.

Video Problems?
Because of internet congestion, videos sometimes will not play properly or they will not have audio. You may try refreshing the page to get them to run properly. If that doesn't work click on them to try them on You Tube itself or please return here another time or bookmark them for viewing later when they will play properly. Also, as soon as we become aware of any videos which indicate that they are no longer available from You Tube, we will replace or eliminate them.
Within this Vidia nearly all of the enterprises found in Negril are now (or soon will be) mapped and visually portrayed in photographs and videos.
This webite is structured with one free visual information page for each and every tourist enterprise which may be found within Negril (these are all created and updated by us at no charge whatsoever to any of Negril's enterprises).
The town's tourist enterprises have all been organized and categorized appropriately into our drop-down, pop-out menu on the left. They can all also be searched out in the search bar located at the top of the page.
Additionally, at the top of the page there is an extensive tourist promotional menu of yellow button links. Here you can explore some of the many reasons that so many people consider Negril Jamaica to be the best tourist town in the world!
Negril.com's message board and Trip Advisor's Negril Forum have many daily threads that provide travelers with much up-to-date tourist information.
Attention!
Owners, Managers and Patrons of All of Negril's Enterprises
All encyclopedias rely upon experts to provide them with authoritative and true articles about their subjects and this video encyclopedia is no exception. However, the articles that we use here are in photo and video form, so the experts whom we must rely upon to produce them are Negril's enterprise owners, managers and their patrons. After all, who is better quailfied to provide good visual information than these folks who have valid, first-hand knowledge about each of Negril's resorts, restaurants, clubs, shops, road stands, attractions and activities?
Welcoming Videos
Therefore, we here request Negril's enterprise owners to record for us a brief digital video welcoming people to their enterprise and describing its attributes (preferably with them and some of their staff and / or their patrons in it). This will humanize their enterprise to the public by being a very friendly and inviting way of encouraging people to come to Negril for their vacations.
Other Videos and Photos
Enterprise owners (and their patrons) may also provide us with separate additional videos of some of the unique, interesting things that occur within their enterprises.
