Families can enjoy a fun and educational experience at the outdoor museum, which offers a great deal of perspective on the history of this period in Jamaica.
3. Doctor’s Cave Beach

The beach’s popularity shot through the roof, making it the top family beach in Montego Bay – whether it turns out to be real or not. The beach is small and clean, with kid-friendly trampolines, fish that swim close to shore and entertain younger guests and a cafe. Be aware that entry to this beach requires payment.

Ocho Rios has a tourist attraction called the Blue Hole. It comprises several naturally occurring limestone pools in a remote location, just a short walk from a spectacular waterfall.
The aquamarine waters of the pools, which reach a depth of 20 feet and are ideal for swimming and diving, gave rise to the name of the place. You can go for a leisurely swim, dart through the water like Tarzan on a rope swing, or for the extreme thrill-seeker, go crazy cliff diving at a waterfall.
5. Sailing at Nergil
Catamaran tours are an absolute delight after departing from Jamaica’s famous Seven Mile Beach Negril. This full or half-day tour has something for everyone. Boating, sightseeing, snorkeling, watching reef divers at Rick’s Cafe, and playing at Margaritaville are all included in the tours. Plus, it’s a trip to the Caribbean, so lots of rum is needed!
