Travel Agent details about Ocho Rios

Attractions

Just west of downtown Ocho Rios, you'll discover one of Jamaica's most famous waterfalls - Dunn's River Falls. The cool mountain waters plunge 600 feet to smooth limestone beds, then stream under the roadway before mingling with the turquoise Caribbean Sea. Whether you climb the falls or swim in the chilly eddies on the ocean side, you're sure to remember this place.

Activities

Board a 30-foot, two-seater bamboo raft. Your captain will guide the raft down the two-mile winding tropical river as you enjoy the lush Jamaican foliage. Climb into a comfortable safari-rigged Land Rover® and prepare to experience the real Jamaica. Take a Jeep® safari adventure and climb 2,000 feet up to Murray Hill for a panoramic view of Ocho Rios, the Blue Mountains and Cuba. Board the 90-foot yacht San San for an exciting adventure off the coast of Ocho Rios. Experience an invigorating river-tubing safari down the White River and soak up the rays. Shop for the perfect souvenir in over a hundred duty-free stores on a Jamaican Shopping Bonanza tour.

Adventures
