Surely the most stylish and cool island in the Caribbean, Jamaica is not only the cradle of reggae but also the favorite destination of James Bond. Although there is no shortage of luxury villas and white-sand beaches, Jamaica offers something that other destinations lack: a vibrant culture, all its own. Overflowing with character, Jamaica has a strong sense of self, shaped over the centuries during its struggle for freedom and independence.

This national pride is reflected in the music, dance, cuisine and literature that originated in Jamaica but have since influenced people around the world. Bob Marley's legacy is closely linked to the image of Jamaica, leaving an indelible mark on the country and the world. For novelist Ian Fleming, Jamaica was his creative incubator. In his home, GoldenEye, Fleming created one of the most famous characters in the world, James Bond. Travelers can now follow in the footsteps of these titans of creative expression by visiting 56 Hope Road in Kingston, Bob Marley's former home, or staying at GoldenEye. Whether you were born and raised on the island or just on vacation, Jamaica's influence is undeniable. Chris Blackwell, founder of Island Records, contributes a foreword to Jamaica Vibes, presenting an intimate and privileged portrait of this vibrant island nation and its fascinating power.
