Is Jamaica Safe To Travel?
What Precautions Should I Take?

A few months ago I attended the  highly sought-after  Jamaica Diaspora Conference held here -which by the way, was huge success from all indications. 

During the second day, during one of the the panel discussions on crime in Jamaica, a diaspora member took the microphone during the Q&A segment and asked this question...

(and this questions stood out to me because I get  questions like these all the time)

Her question was this, "My mom wants to return home, but we've heard about a lot of crime in the news that makes us worried - what can I say to my mother to console her? Be honest, is Jamaica safe to travel at this time for her?" 

One of the representatives from the Ministry Of National Security answered ably and appropriately. His answer was a confident yes! 

And for many reasons. He mentioned for example that...

• Over 80% of the crime in Jamaica are concentrated in particular locations, usually the garrison areas.
• The significant majority of these crimes are committed by criminals typically fighting against each other-  whether its because of gang associations, scamming, etc,
• This year continues to show a steady decline in major crimes (currently at 14.6%). And also that...
• Jamaica has an exceptional record for tourist safety!

🤔So Why This Guide?

👉Well, that was good to hear!

But I also know that no one wants to be a statistic, whether or not they are in the minority.

So I took it a bit personal. I figured that I needed to provide a practical guide to persons like her (and her mom), something that provides accurate information and practical, actionable advice - before and after they arrive here. 

And above that, it would be a tremendously helpful resource for persons like you who are visiting Jamaica and are genuinely concerned about staying safe.

And if I needed data to give me a reason, I got them!
They came in email, here on website and even on YouTube.

Questions like...

• How can I stay safe while visiting Jamaica?
  
• Are there any travel advisories for Jamaica right now?

• How do I avoid scams and theft in Jamaica?
• What are the safest areas to visit in Jamaica?, and this one, which in my mind, summarize them all,

This simple guide provides you with practical, easy-to-follow tips to navigate these challenges and ensure your trip is as safe as it is memorable.
