Jamaica

Jamaica

Jamaica is a fan favorite among cruisers. For cruisers the three most popular ports in Jamaica are Montego Bay, Falmouth and Ocho Rios. Jamaica is the third largest island in the Caribbean and it can take a while to get around so you need to pick your excursions carefully. Traffic can be extremely difficult.

  1. If you can be there for the evening here are a couple of options: Luminous Lagoon (Falmouth) for a spectacular bioluminescence light show in the water or Rose Hall (Montego Bay) for some ghost hunting. according to legend the spirt of Annie Palmer or possibly Rosa Palmer haunts the grounds.
  2. Falls:  Duns Falls or Blue Hole. Duns Falls is more famous, but we really enjoyed Blue Hole more to be honest. Be sure to bring tip money because these guys work for tips.
