Opened in 2020, Hedo Weedo is the first legal, regulated cannabis dispensary in Jamaica. It’s connected to Hedonism II, a clothing optional resort on 7 Mile beach. The dispensary offers local flower, topicals, edibles and tinctures and is open to the public. As many who visit Jamaica already do, you can take your vacation to a whole ‘nother level!
It has been less than 10 years since Jamaica decriminalized cannabis. Currently, it is legal to carry up to 2 oz. with you in public at any time. If you’re on the beaches, you’ll probably find the weed lady. She walks 7 Mile beach daily with a big wooden basket filled with long stems with buds running all the way down.
To access the dispensary, you’ll need to obtain a medical card. You can do this one of two ways. If you have a med card or recommendation from your home state, you can use it here. If not, all you have to do is bring your ID and see the on-site doctor. The cost of the card is $15, and you’re good to purchase for 9 months. You’ll be walking out with cannabis the same day.
Just curious? Bring your ID and you can browse and ask questions.
The dispensary also provides a consumption lounge. Consumption lounges are designed to provide their customers a safe place to toke up, meet other tourists and maybe even a local or two. Stately chairs and coffee tables adorn the lounge, welcoming you in. You can use their utensils, or bring your own.
In collaboration with Leafly, Hedo Weedo also has online ordering for both guests and non-guests. You can browse the site and order products that you then pick up from the store.
Quick note for all the cruisers coming through, the waters are under federal jurisdiction. So, technically, it isn’t legal to have it onboard.
People love spending time in Jamaica, feeling the freedom to partake. Hedo Weedo is yet another reason to visit Jamaica and especially to visit Hedonism II.
