One of the most laid-back and picturesque corners of Jamaica, Robin's Bay is entirely apart from what is marketed on JTB posters. Robin's Bay is the Treasure Beach of yesteryear, remaining a quiet fishing and subsistence agricultural community with a few accommodation options catering to those looking for an easygoing retreat or the experience of enjoying intimacy with nature.

Bromley (US$80 per night) is a stately great house owned by the founding family of Walkerswood jerk sauces. A quaint cottage, Lignum Vitae, located next to the great house operates as a bed-and-breakfast, with a large bedroom suite containing a queen-size bed plus an additional twin bedroom with a veranda.

Moneague is a small community along the main road between Spanish Town and the North Coast notable for the Moneague Teacher Training College, the Jamaica Defense Force Training Camp, the mysterious rising lake, and Café Aubergine, one of the most charming restaurants on the island.

Faith's Pen, a few kilometers south of Moneague, has a famous rest stop lined with shacks dishing out jerk and conch soup at the best local prices. Fruit stands also appear sporadically along the road north and south of Faith's Pen.
