Getting from Negril to Kingston or Port Antonio is an all-day affair in a car (nice drive, though). There are inter-island flights that could get you there faster, at a price.
Regards,

I used to stay in Westmorland out in the bush. I have driven all over the island and seen lots of beachs, bays, etc. The East coast is where your most likely to find consistant surf and even that can be sketch.
The drive from negril to the eastern (opposite) end of the island an "avdenture" and will take you a long time. Not a day jaunt by any means and best done with a yardie (local).

The most famous surf spot is Boston Beach, on the NE coast.
There were 2 articles recently in Eastern Surf Mag and Longboard Mag. about surf on the South Coast near Kingston called Bull Bay.
If you like IRIE Vibes and Rasta culture, I wouldn't overlook Jamaica as a surf destination.

The place is full of stoked out groms in serious need of new boards so anybody traveling thru jamaica to surf should think about leaving them a board or two.
