Hotels in Saint Mary, Antigua/Barbuda
Saint Mary is a parish on Jamaica's northeastern coast, with a tropical climate that stays warm year-round (averaging 80°F / 27°C) and is famous as the birthplace of the island's jerk seasoning and the setting for Ian Fleming's James Bond novels. During the dry winter months from December to April, you can snorkel at the calm waters of James Bond Beach or tour the GoldenEye estate where Fleming wrote his spy stories, while the wetter summer months from May to November bring lush greenery perfect for hiking to Cascade Falls in the interior. The parish splits into the coastal strip with resorts and beaches, and the rural hill towns where locals still cook jerk over pimento wood at roadside stalls.
