View Cruise DealWith the first glimmers of sunlight hitting its shores, Ocho Rios awakens, ready to unfold its bounty of experiences for those venturing its land.
A short distance from the port, you’ll discover one of Jamaica’s most celebrated natural wonders, Dunn’s River Falls. This cascading spectacle, stretching over 600 feet, isn’t just for admiring from a distance; it invites visitors for an exhilarating climb. Under the guidance of seasoned local experts, embark on a journey, hand in hand with fellow travellers up the terraced falls. The climb, while moderately challenging, promises refreshing dips in natural pools, moments of awe under the cascading water and panoramic views of the surrounding tropical landscape. For those seeking a less adventurous experience, adjacent beaches offer a tranquil spot to admire the falls, while local vendors add vibrancy with their array of crafts and traditional snacks.
The road from Ocho Rios winds its way into Fern Gully, a unique rainforest stretch that offers a canopy drive like no other. Originating from a centuries-old earthquake that rerouted a river, this gully, now a road, boasts over 300 varieties of ferns and a tapestry of tropical vegetation. As you drive through, the sun filters in sporadic rays, creating a dappled effect on the road and imparting an almost ethereal ambience. The route, lined with artisans selling woodcarvings and pottery, also offers glimpses into Jamaican craftsmanship. With every twist and turn, Fern Gully narrates tales of Jamaica’s botanical richness and one can’t help but be ensnared by its tranquil beauty.
Jamaican cuisine, with its meld of flavours, spices and textures, is a gastronomic adventure every traveller must undertake. And the best place to begin this journey in Ocho Rios? The bustling local markets near the port! Dive into a sensory overload as vendors beckon, fresh produce glistens and the aroma of spices wafts through the air. Sample tropical fruits, engage with local vendors and learn about traditional dishes or grab a freshly baked patty.
