Jamaica - James Bond

Roger : Holly, you know I've been to Jamaica before, right? Well, I'm having the strangest feeling of dejavu right now.

Holly : About this beach? Yeah, that happens to a lot of James Bond fans when they come here. Have you figured it out yet?

Roger : Wait a second.. Is this the beach from "Dr. NO"? The scene where Ursula Andress comes out of the water in a white bikini with a knife strapped to her hip? Ah!

Holly : Has it finally come to you? Didn't you notice the sign on the way here that said " James Bond Beach"? 

Roger : Funny enough, I was too busy looking at the tropical flowers growing along the roadside. This place is so lush.

Holly : Well, if you want to see some pictures of the beach when the movie was shot here, we can go to the Moonraker Bar or the restaurant near the Golden Eye Villars.

Roger : Wow, they have really decided to use the James Bond connection for everything it's worth.

Holly : What do you expect? when you're on an island as beautiful as Jamaica, you have to find a way to stand above the crowd. In fact, they just opened Ian Fleming International Airport right down the road in 2010!

Roger : Next thing you're going to tell me is that there is a Skyfall amusement park where I can ride the Die Another Day rollercoaster!

Holly : Not yet, but there's still time! The mayor of the neighbor village is an ambitious man - and a big double-o-seven(007) fan.

Roger : For the life of me, I can't understand why they would promote anything but the natural beauty of the island.
