Shanshy Beach
This pretty but badly maintained stretch of sand 2km west of Port Antonio has a big, bad sound system. An area DJ collective called Big Bad Trouble International spins for theme nights including the After Work Jam on Friday featuring dancehall music; Cranked Saturdays with hip-hop, R&B and reggae; and Talent Explosion Sundays featuring local flair. Signs reading ‘No Gun Salute’ forbid the carrying of concealed weapons. There’s a restaurant and bar.

Roof Club
This is Port Antonio’s infamous hang-loose, rough-around-the-edges reggae bar. Young men and women move from partner to partner. You’re fair game for any stranger who wants to try to extract a drink from you. It’s relatively dead midweek, when entry is free. But on weekends it hops with Crazy Saturdays, as well as on Thursday – ‘Ladies Nite.’

Club la Best
The newest, liveliest spot in Port Antonio, La Best assumes a different identity depending on the evening. Fridays are dancehall and ladies’ nights, Sundays groove to a mellow blend of reggae and old-school R&B, and periodic live shows occur Saturdays.

Lanza Lawn
This popular venue goes nuts on Crazy Fridays as local DJs trade grooves and pass the mic. Sister P invites the public to nyahbinghi drumming sessions here on Tuesday and Thursday nights.
