Hellshire Beach, located in St. Catherine, is known for its lively atmosphere, fresh seafood and strong ties to Jamaican culture.

Its history dates back to when it was a popular spot for local fishermen and is now a beloved beach for locals and tourists alike.

However, coastal erosion has affected parts of the beach in recent years, which has reduced its size.

This is a free beach, bustling with activity, especially on weekends when families and friends gather to enjoy the beach and eat fresh fish from the many food stalls.

The beach is a bit rugged compared to other Jamaican beaches, but it’s still great for swimming, sunbathing and enjoying the authentic Jamaican culinary experience.

It’s typically busy, especially on public holidays.
