YS Falls
The most dramatic set of waterfalls in Jamaica. Eight 'falls' reaching heights of 120 feet.....

Treasure Beach

For those looking for an 'off the beaten track' experience, you can find it at Treasure Beach. A series of sleepy fishing villages, dotted with a few small hotels, villas and guesthouses, nestled together on Jamaica's south coast. You will find deserted beaches, authentic food and friendly people..... and oh.... women with donkeys wandering up and down the beach selling mangos and pineapples!!

Appleton Estate

Take a journey through time and experience how the world's finest rum is made. Discover why prime Jamaican rum was, in times past, worthy of a King's Ransom. And of course, get to taste all of the different types of rums and rum creams!!!!

Black River Crocodile Safari

Take a boat ride down the Black River and learn about Jamaica's wildlife and vegetation. Sit back and enjoy the scenery and of course, stop and say 'hi' to the odd crocodile or two!!!

Local Fisherman's Boat Trip Boat Trip

Ride out with 'Ted' or one of the other local fishermen... they will show you the delights of the south coast from the sea, and with luck you will spot wild dolphins, flying fish and sea turtles. Stop off for a cold drink at a bar in the middle of the sea and then take a trip down the Black River, crocodile spotting!!... Or you could just go fishing!!

Little Ochi
A must for anyone who loves eating seafood and considered by many to serve the best seafood in all of Jamaica. Located at Alligator Pond, on the south coast of Jamaica, feast your appetite on lobster, crab, shrimp, conch, and a large variety of fish fresh from the sea.

Lovers Leap
Perched 1750 feet on a cliff above the Caribbean Sea, this is the setting where 2 slave lovers jumped to their death rather than be separated. Magnificent views and pleasant surroundings, make this small attraction a ‘stop off’ on the way to somewhere else.

Bamboo Avenue
A picturesque two and a half mile stretch of bamboo trees which arch to form a natural tunnel can be found along the way to YS Falls. Stop for coconut water straight out of the coconut, and take a few pictures of this famous attraction.

Further afield, there are many other exciting attractions…

Dunns River Falls
Located in Ochi Rios, you can actually climb up these breath taking waterfalls . A little overdeveloped, but a visit to Jamaica without visiting Dunns River Falls could be like visiting France without seeing the Eiffel Tower!!!!

Dolphin Cove Dolp[hin Cove

Situated in Ochi Rios is one of Jamaica's newest attractions. Home to 8 dolphins, you can experience a 'once in a lifetime' opportunity, and swim and play with them. Different opportunities for 'petting', 'encountering' and 'swimming with'...... whatever you choose to do, the memories will never leave you..

Birds'..... a truly uplifting experience.
