Every aspect of life in
Jamaica is imbued with a sense of pride for the island and its people.
There’s that common search for "everything being irie," which is more
than just a phrase to describe being relaxed and content. It sums up
that feeling when people come together to create a work of harmony that
someone could only discover in Jamaica’s peaceful paradise.

There’s that common search for "everything being irie," which is more

that feeling when people come together to create a work of harmony that

dish of jerk chicken while listening to live reggae next to a placid
turquoise sea seems to do the trick.
That singular sense of
rhythm and joy is a major reason for so many vacations booked to
Jamaica. All that reggae-inspired dancin’ and romancin’ is a positive
reminder of the island’s national motto: "out of many, one people."
