Destination informationDestination information

The classic Caribbean attractions of palm-lined beaches and a wide range of water sports are very much in evidence on this large island, but Jamaica is also spectacularly beautiful. Dunns River Falls is breathtaking both the view and the climb! The island's strong musical culture is everywhere - Bob Marley's legend and music really does live on here. Negril is more laid-back, spread out along a beautiful 7-mile stretch of golden beach. Ocho Rios is a world-class, well-located destination and its duty-free shopping is very popular.
