Vacation at Pirate's Beach, Whitehouse, Jamaica-Home To Sandals Whitehouse European Village Spa

Home of Sandals Whitehouse European Village Spa. Located on Jamaica's South Coast, Whitehouse is a virtually undiscovered oasis. This mile long beach is literally a beacon of unspotted perfection. Two coves form a point and then diverge—both sides seeming to go forever. One side offers an easterly view of the sunrise over the mountains. The other faces directly west, providing a stunning display of the sun setting in the sea's horizon. The days seem longer here because they are. So enjoy the beach, the soft breezes and, of course, the sun itself.

While staying at Whitehouse European Village Spa connections can be made to experience:

• Lacovia

The longest village in Jamaica, laid out for more than five miles on either side of the South Coast highway and the Black River, both of which divide the community into East and West Lacovia. Throughout the 18th century, Black River and Lacovia alternated as the capital of the parish of St Elizabeth. At one point in time, the river was the main transportation route for the parish, as road travel through the dense and humid mangrove swamps was treacherous at worst, miserable at best. The name Lacovia seems to be derived from the Spanish name for mahogany – la caoba –  when the main industry was the logging of mahogany trees, which were floated down the river to the wharf for export. Today the cashew nut has replaced mahogany lumber as the prime export of the area, and the Black River is no longer used to transport goods to the parish capital.

• Lover's Leap

Located east of Treasure Beach, Lover's Leap is a sheer 1,700 foot cliff overhanging the sea. It was here that two slave lovers leaped to their deaths rather then be separated.

• Eco Marine tours—BlueFields Bay

The tour of historic Bluefields Bay starts from Belmont Beach, where fishing has been a way of life for more than 1400 years. The two hour tour with a fisherman guide takes you to the east, where you'll pass close to the entrance to some sea caves where cave swallows build their nests. Your next stop will be at a partially exposed coral reef, which is home to a myriad of multicolored fishes and sea creatures. A wide range of corals can be seen in the clear waters – these include sea fans, sea whips, stag’s horn and brain coral..and the tours goes on......

• St. Elizabeth Homecoming

This annual celebration of St. Elizabethans will showcase the best of St. Elizabeth. Celebrations will include concerts, fairs, expos, family-fun and lots more.

• Off the beaten Path


Over 17,000 kilometers of road connect Jamaica's towns and cities. Their colorful highways and byways are destination unto themselves. Winding through the mountains, zigzagging though woodlands, and circling the coastline, a road trip through Jamaica reveals many faces of our rich culture.



• Jamaica Whitewater Expedition


Jamaica's Whitewater offers a 3-4 hour guided expedition that takes you down the beautiful Cabrita River, located in the small town of Friendship. Experience the clear blue 78 degree water of the Cabrita River with Jamaica Whitewater. The Cabrita River is a spring fed river that twists and winds through some of the most beautiful country side in Jamaica.
