Experience
the authentic
Jamaica
The birthplace of Reggae and Dancehall, a place
known for jerk chicken or pork, among many other
things, Jamaica has much to offer. Whatever your
interests, whether nature, history, food or night life,
there is something to captivate and excite.

f you like the outdoors, and you
like the water, visiting and climbing
Dunn’s River Falls is a must. If just
to take in the scenery and enjoy the
beach, Dunn’s River Falls is an enthralling
experience. The white-sand beach is calm
and welcoming, with tiny waves lapping
at your toes in the sand. It makes for a
day of fun and frolicking in the crystal
waters. Should you, though, choose to
climb the 500-meter high falls, it is both a
challenging and an exhilarating adventure.
While it might leave you winded to make
the climb, the sense of accomplishment
once you get to the top will more than
make up for you pushing your body
to make it up. Also, there are pools of
enjoyment along the way where you can
jump or dive in and swim around if you
don’t want to make a straight climb all the
way up. Dunn’s River Falls is a must-do.
