Review & FAQ:

Ocho Rios, Jamaica is a port town set on Jamaica’s northern coast. The city was once a tiny fishing village but today one could barely imagine that to be true with its busy bayside beach, numerous resorts, and popularity as a cruise port. The interior is characterized by rainforests and mountains, and nature lovers will appreciate a visit to Dunn’s River Falls and the Turtle River Falls and Gardens. Meanwhile, animal lovers can get a close experience with dolphins and other animals at Dolphin Cove, a popular family attraction. October is Jamaica’s wettest month but the sea is still warm and it can be a good time to avoid the crowds.
