- Brimmer Hall Estate:
Some 34km (21 miles) east of Ocho Rios, in the hills 3km (2 miles) from Port Maria,
this 1817 estate is an ideal place to spend a day. You can swim in the pool and sample a wide variety of brews and concoctions. The Plantation Tour Eating
House offers typical Jamaican dishes for lunch, and there's a souvenir shop with a good selection of ceramics, art, straw goods, woodcarvings, rums, liqueurs,
and cigars. All this is on a working plantation where you're driven around in a tractor-drawn jitney to see the tropical fruit trees and coffee plants;
the knowledgeable guides will explain the various processes necessary to produce the fine fruits of the island.
Cost: $18 Reservations required 3 days in advance Phone: 876-974-2244
- Dunns River Falls
The most famous attraction in Jamaica, Dunn's River Falls just outside Ocho Rios is a must for first timers. The Falls are always renewing themselves from the calcium
that flows from the spring allowing visitors to climb their way to the top. Dunn's River Falls is a short taxi ride from Ocho Rios. You can join a tour any time during the day.
- Fern Gully:
A scenic drive south of Ocho Rios along Route A3 will take you inland through Fern Gully, a lush gorge.
This was originally a riverbed, but now the main road winds up some 210m (700 ft.) among a profusion of wild ferns, a tall rainforest, hardwood trees, and
lianas. There are hundreds of varieties of ferns, and roadside stands offer fruits and vegetables, carved-wood souvenirs, and basketwork.
- Green Grotto Caves:Formed of coastal limestone, these caves were a haven for runaway slaves and pirates. The mammoth cave
is full of rock formations, stalagmites, and stalactites, and has a roof of "ceiling pockets." The grotto is filled with numerous chambers and light holes,
but its most dramatic feature is eerie Grotto Lake, a subterranean lake occupying its bowels.
Admission: adults: $20 , Children 4-12: $10 Phone: 876/973-2841
