Human Activity on the Caribbean Coast

Content: All of the country’s 14 parishes are found along the Caribbean coast. Many of Jamaica’s major cities are found along the Caribbean coast including the nation’s largest city Kingston. Other major cities found on the coastline include Ocho Rios, Montego Bay, Portmore, and Old Harbour. As a result, a significant portion of the island’s population resides along the coastline. Some of the economic activities along the coastline include fishing and maritime commerce. The primary economic driver along Jamaica’s Caribbean coastline is tourism due to the presence of picturesque beaches found along the coastline. Like many other coastlines in the Caribbean, Jamaica’s coast is struggling with the coastal erosion being a serious threat to its existence. Coastal erosion is thought to be triggered by rising sea levels which are in turn caused by global warming. One beach where the effects of coastal erosions are most profound is Hellshire Beach which has been retreating at a rapid rate. The disappearance of large sections of the beach has hampered the commercial and recreational activities which take place on the beach.
