No, Winnifred isn't the name of your long-lost aunt from Mandeville — it's one of Jamaica’s most cherished public beaches, and a true gem of the east. Just past Dragon Bay and on the way to Boston Beach, this beautiful half-moon stretch of sand draws more locals than tourists — and trust us, that’s a good sign.

 

The offshore reef is alive with coral and colorful sea creatures, making it a favorite spot for snorkelers and ocean lovers. Facilities like restrooms and changing rooms are available, so come prepared to swim, relax, and soak in the vibes.

 

during the day, local boatmen offer rides on small boats to a quiet beach around the headland — perfect if you want to tek weh yuhself from the crowd for a while.

 

For lunch? You’re well taken care of. 

 

And here’s the real cherry on top:

Every last Sunday of the month, Winnifred Beach comes alive with our Community Market — a vibrant mix of local craft, culture, food, music, and island soul. Come shop small, vibe big, and feel the real Jamaica.
