At the western end of Little Bay, the Brighton offshoot of the Negril hostel is a bona fide backpacker haunt where you can camp out under the stars (tents provided), sleep in bunks inside a converted shipping container, roam the beaches and check out the Blue Hole. Cooking facilities and shared bathrooms on site. It's a 10-minute walk east of the Blue Hole.
