"Feel the Vibe on Winnifred Beach This gem of a beach, located in the lush eastern parish of Portland, isn’t visible to the naked eye. Halfway between Frenchman's Cove and Boston Bay, you’ll need a four-wheel vehicle to go down a very narrow and rugged path off the main highway, unmarked and bumpy all the way to the beach below. Anyone will be happy to direct you when you ask. And once there, you’ll find a gorgeous golden sand beach, dotted with trees and facing deep turquoise waters. A nice mix of locals and the occasional savvy or returning visitors relax here. There are jerk stands on site, serving some of the best local dishes, crafts vendors and occasional live Reggae. The water is a stunning deep turquoise and ideal for snorkeling off a nearby reef. It’s one of the few gorgeous stretches to remain public in Jamaica . Get there while you can."

"Winnifred is my favorite public beach in Jamaica, and has such a local charm. We arrived and were greeted by a beautiful beach bonfire waiting to be lit at sunset."

Nice little public beach that is readily accessible to anyone. I wouldn't say it's the best beach in Portland, but it is definitely one that can pass. The environment was clean, and the vibe was nice. This is really one of the few 'free' beaches you can find there Well, the admission is free, yes, but every now again, especially on the weekends, they may ask for a contribution. They say it goes towards helping with the maintainace of the beach. I don't mind giving a contribution for that purpose, because it's a beautiful beach and it takes money to keep things in good condition. Parking isn't an issue. There is plenty of space. There are some stalls there that I think sell food and beverages. I didn't really go over there, so I dont have much to say there. The beach, at the time of my visit, did have a sea urchin issue. They took over a large part of the sea bed... Not sure if that's the case nowadays, though.

My friends and I came here three times during our stay in Portland. Each time was a fun experience. Shout out to the people who take care of this place and make it a home. Everyone should come here and support the locals! Make sure you go to the river at the far end from the entrance. This is a really beautiful place!

Beautiful place. Traders were there trying to earn a few dollars but were not at all pushy. Beach was spotless and entry was a donation for the upkeep of the beach. Fresh water showers were also available.

This beach is local and open to anyone. We had the beat steam fish ever here at Cinthia's restaurant to the left as you enter the beach. Most delicious food ever.

We had to pay to enter. We gave 500JMD for a car full. Expect to pay 500JMD for a Bud, Heineken or Red Stripe. When we entered 3 different vendors approached us to highlight which was their stall. The beach was dirty. My children found half a glass beer bottle in the shallows. The toilets are dirty. There was no water in the pipes for the showers or taps. There was no toilet paper. The roads to get down were really bad. Worse than the main, which is awful too. Watch out for the spikey things on the sea bed, stones and sea week.

Lovely beach. Music, loads of food and activity excursions. A lot of hassling from businesses but a nice place to spend the day. Not the nicest beach along this coast line in Portland. Expect to pay a contribution to enter. Parking is readily available metres from the beach. Not the easiest road to get there tho.

This beach is underestimated, as it's near Frenchman's cove and blue lagoon, but it0's actually one of the most beautiful, peaceful and free entrance (small donation is expected). I liked it a lot! There is really good restaurant as well.
