Things to Do in Port Jamaica

Long celebrated as one of the top vacation spots in the world, Jamaica is surrounded by stunning reefs and characterized by its beaches and dining. Each port is a gateway to towns rich with history.
  1. Port Antonio

    • If you come into Port Antonio, you will find a relaxing town, relatively tourist free. In the way of nightlife, options are a bit limited, but Anna Banana's Sports Bar and Club La Best liven things up. For a more intense experience, you want to visit the Rooftop on weekends. Just be prepared to dance with everyone there to the booming reggae.

      During the day, pay a visit to the bright and bustling Muskgrave Market. Afterward, make your way down the Tichtfield Peninsula, a National Heritage Trust site, to take in old Victorian houses and the DeMontevin Lodge in particular.

    Montego Bay

    • Montego Bay, nicknamed MoBay by some eager visitors, is typically bustling with travelers, but it also offers some of the best cuisine on the island. The Brewery, which overlooks Gloucester Avenue, offers Jamaican, Mexican and continental fare and a laid-back atmosphere. For the real deal in local cuisine, stop by the Dolly's Cafe for the fish steamed with bananas or stewed in coconut milk.

      In terms of sightseeing, the Bellfield Great House gives guests a peek at what colonial life used to be. Another picturesque stop should be made for the St. James Church, built in 1755. With its handsome manse across the street, this is lovely historical attraction.

    Negril

    • This fabulous Jamaican town offers some of the best coral reefs around the island, along with a variety of attractions for guests. Don't miss Abba Jahnehoy's Garden, which offers fantastic views from a hilltop. The center is solar-powered and designed for meditation and discussion. This is the place to come to learn more about Rastafarianism and numerology.

      The Negril Lighthouse dates back to 1894, but is now solar-powered. A visit there pays off in a walk up to the top for a spectacular view of the coast. For a different type of view, the Royal Palm Reserve features boardwalks through indigenous forests, full of birds and butterflies.
