Chanukah of the Caribbean

Negril is one of Jamaica’s tourist capitals. People typically flock to the city’s iconic Seven Mile Beach to relax, get some sun, and enjoy the crystal waters and white sandy beaches. On Sunday, Dec. 29, more than 500 people gathered there for another reason: to light the menorah in celebration of the fifth night of Chanukah. The event, featuring the Maccabeats acapella group, was put on by Chabad-Lubavitch of Jamaica.
