Located right in the middle of Montego Bay’s “Hip Strip” on Gloucester Avenue, the Doctor's Cave Bathing Club started in 1906 when Dr. McCatty donated his private beach to start a bathing club. The crystal-clear waters and warm temperatures throughout the year attracted visitors from all over, but it wasn’t until Sir Herbert Barker published an article on the water’s restorative healing powers that the beach rose to fame with foreigners coming from all over the world. Today, visitors head to the beach for a great day among golden sands, azure waters, and stunning coral reefs. The club’s facilities include bathrooms, rental beach chairs and umbrellas, and a variety of restaurants, bars, and hotels surrounding the area.
