Jamaica vacations are a tropical dream-come-true. Whether you're a thrill-seeker, a history buff, a diver or just a beach lounger, Jamaica will give you everything you could want and more.

Places to Go

Montego Bay
Spellbinding Montego Bay, second largest city on the island, is steeped in the exotic history of the Caribbean. Enjoy a day touring fascinating historic sites on the city's heritage walking tour. For golfers, Montego Bay offers five world championship golf courses.

Negril
Far from the wilder resort areas of Montego Bay and Kingstown, Negril is a laid-back paradise renowned for stunning black cliffs towering over azure waters.

Ochos Rios
Known for its lavish garden ambience, this heavenly little town blends fun and excitement to perfection. Home to the island's most spectacular waterfall, the region is perfect for hiking or touring on horseback.

Things to See

Devon House - Kingston
A beautifully restored Georgian-style mansion, the Devon House stands in stately splendor amid eleven verdant acres in Kingston. Wander back to the extravagant luxury of Victorian-era Caribbean society in the home of Jamaica's first black millionaire.

Dunn's River Falls
Near Ochos Rios, rainbows gleam in the thundering cascades of the 183-meter high Dunn's River Falls, highest and most magnificent falls on the island. Hike to the top or rest in the splendor of tropical gardens and a golden little beach.

Treasure Beach
Step off the beaten path and enjoy Treasure Beach, a string of quaint fishing villages on the quiet southern shore known for its funky beach cafes, bed and breakfasts, and friendly island welcomes.

Things to Do

Cliff Diving
For the dare-devil, no trip to Jamaica would be complete without diving from one of the spectacular cliffs, soaring for breathless moments between the vast blue sky and the clear waters below. Make the dive yourself or marvel at the breathtaking stunts of local divers at Rick's Café in Negril every evening.

Canopy Tour
Experience the intoxicating excitement of zip-lining through the jungle canopy, gliding from heights up to 660 feet, while below you thrums the excitement and beauty of the rain forest. At Laughlands River Gorge, your tour swings past ancient rivers, soaring cliffs, and jewel-like glimpses of the Caribbean.

Dolphin Cove
Swim and play in crystalline azure waters with the amazing denizens of Dolphin Cove, then enjoy a stroll on the Jungle Trail or dance to Steel Band music.

Rum Factory Tour
Just south of Montego Bay, in a lovely valley near the Black River lies the Appleton Estate, where rum's been brewed since 1749. Following a fascinating distillery tour, delight in festive rum tasting, and bring home fantastic memories and a complimentary bottle of rum.

Accommodations
Whether you prefer the cozy ambience of a bed and breakfast, the luxurious privacy of a villa or something in between, you can find it in Jamaica. Stay close to the action in a rocking resort area or choose the secluded tranquility of more remote areas of the island. Jamaica vacations offer endless variety.
