"Negril's Lighthouse Located on the westernmost point of the island, and on the far end of Negril's cliff side, the historic Negril Lighthouse is missed by many a visitor who don't go beyond Rick's Cafe during their stay. It was built in 1894 by French Company Bubbler & Bernard, on a water-filled tank 14 feet deep, to keep the tower secure even in the event of an earthquake. Initially powered by gas lamp, in 1985 it was replaced with solar energy. The tower stands 66 feet high and its light rises at 100 feet above sea level. Its light flashing automatically every two seconds. It's worth walking down the West End and finding the superintendent so you can walk up the over 100 steps and take in the coastline view. - Image by Abir Anwar (https://flic.kr/p/GkzfR)"

It’s worth going to visit it. It’s not always open. I recommend taking a taxi, because they know when it is open and they can even open the doors to visit the lighthouse

Absolutely beautiful. Amazing sunset from the top, if you are lucky to be there at the perfect moment. Wow factor, if lighthouses and their views are your "thing". #localguide

This lighthouse is a photographers dream come true. Very quaint well-kept grounds. The only bad side is make sure you arrive before 5 PM or the gates will be closed

Wasn't able to see the inside of the museum as it was a quick stop during the Island Roots tour (which was AMAZING) Nice surroundings and is the western most point of Jamaica

The gates were closed on the day we went, but it's a smaller lighthouse than the one in the east
