Falmouth/ sandy beach- not rocky, near by?

[Tam.daelynn]

Is there a nice sandy beach, no seaweed or rocks? Hopefully within a 30 min drive? I have s baby so rocky beaches don't work for us:/

 

Thanks

We went to Red Stripe Beach. It was close to port- 10 min ride . It's a quiet small beach but we really enjoyed it.

Agree, Red Stripe beach.

We'll be in Falmouth in a few days and are interested in a beach day. We thought Doctor's Cave in Montego Bay but it seems too far and pricey to get there. Red Stripe might be a better bet, but can you get there via local taxi (if so, how much would the ride and entrance fee cost?) or do you have to book exclusively through the cruise line? If the latter, Montego Bay is not sounding that expensive anymore.
