"Oracabessa, is a beautiful coastal town that offers a relaxed lifestyle, but there are several things expats should know before retiring there. Firstly, it's important to understand the cost of living, which can be higher than in other parts of Jamaica due to its popularity with tourists and expats. This includes the cost of housing, groceries, healthcare, and other daily expenses. Secondly, healthcare in Oracabessa is adequate for minor health issues, but for serious conditions, you may need to travel to larger cities. Therefore, having a comprehensive health insurance plan is crucial. Thirdly, while English is the official language of Jamaica, the local dialect can be difficult to understand at first. It may be beneficial to learn some Jamaican Patois to help with daily interactions. Fourthly, safety can be a concern in some parts of Jamaica, so it's important to research and choose a safe neighborhood in Oracabessa. Fifthly, the climate in Oracabessa is tropical, which means it's hot and humid year-round with a rainy season from May to November. Lastly, understanding the local culture and customs is key to integrating into the community. Jamaicans are known for their friendliness and hospitality, but they also appreciate respect for their traditions and way of life. In conclusion, retiring in Oracabessa, Jamaica, can be a dream come true for those who are prepared and understand what to expect," remarked another expat who made the move to Oracabessa, Jamaica.
