Jamaica, one of the most iconic Caribbean destinations, needs no introduction. The spectacular scenery here is overwhelming: coral reefs, white-sand beaches, scintillating waterfalls and cloud-shrouded rainforests. Everywhere you look, nature seems to have cast its spell. If the scenery is beautiful, the music is infectious. Jamaica is the birthplace of Bob Marley and it goes without saying that reggae occupies a unique position in the island's musical heart. Jamaica is a potpourri of inhabitants from African, Chinese, Indian, British and German heritage
Jamaica vacation rentals are professionally managed and provide all the services you would normally associate with a hotel including concierge, reception and housekeeping staff. While some units are self-catering, others also include the services of a chef to take care of the cooking. Depending on your taste, requirements, group size and budget you can choose from a wide range comprising studios, apartments to several bedroom cottages and villas. These rentals are located facing the Caribbean Sea away from the crowds but within distance of the attractions or near the attractions themselves.
Most rivers in Jamaica are navigable and if you are looking for some fun and excitement you can opt for white water rafting in the fast paced canyon rivers or in a lazy pool, if you are just a beginner. Rafters will get the perfect opportunity to view up and close the unspoiled beauty of the rainforests. Experienced raft guides will lead you safely down the river and some trips are open to both children and adult.
Doctor's Cave Beach: Doctor's Cave Beach is the signature attraction of Jamaica. This beach is said to be fed by mineral springs and it definitely does offer uncommonly clear and sparkling water.
Montego Bay offers some of the best snorkelling sites in the Caribbean. Under the waves, be prepared to see huge, brightly coloured fish that emerge dramatically from their hiding places amid ocean floor vegetation. The fish here are completely at home with the visitors and can often welcome you with a brush. The sun's rays penetrate through the crystal clear waters lighting up the incredible underwater scenery. Do remember to bring along an underwater camera for memorable photos of ornate coral reefs and beautiful, exotic fish.
Fondly referred to as Ochee by the locals, this is Jamaica’s most famous tourist town located in the beautiful green parish of St. Ann. In fact the parish is known for its beautiful gardens. Ocho Rios is famous for Jamaica’s signature attraction, the Dunn’s River Falls. While the waterfalls are beautiful what is more interesting is the fact that you can actually climb up the slippery limestone rocks over which the water cascades on its way to the Caribbean Sea. There is the Dolphins cove nearby where you can spend an entire fun-filled day swimming with the dolphins, exploring rainforest trails and enjoying a picnic on the beach. You can also visit the nearby Green Grotto caves that once served as home to the original inhabitants of the island and later to the runaway slaves, pirates etc
Jamaica has a wide array of dining options. You can choose from the finest restaurants at 5-star resorts or savour the local flavors in open-air Jerk shacks. Dining in Jamaica is relatively cheaper than in other Caribbean destinations but prices can be higher for items shipped in from the USA and Canada. If you are a budget traveler you can stick to the local specialties or fresh seafood. You'll be required to pay a15 percent general consumption tax in restaurants and hotels. It is also customary to leave an additional tip for good service.
Jamaica's greatest gift to the world is its music. The island's musical diversity goes beyond reggae. Other musical variations you'll hear are ska, rocksteady, and mento. The folk dances here are a visual delight and a vibrant expression of the rich cultural heritage of the island. The National Theater Company is an important venue for experiencing the powerful, and beautiful culture of the island. There is plenty of action when the sun goes down. There is something for everyone; nightclubs, street dances and laid-back hangout spots alive with the laughter of the tourists and the locals.
Jamaica is the ultimate golfing destination in the Caribbean. The courses here have bunkers as big as beaches, water hazards stretching to the horizon, and wind blowing fresh off the sea to add pleasure to the game.
