Rafting the Rio Grande
No less a celebrity than Errol Flynn started the habit of floating along on moonlit rafting trips through the Rio Grande Valley, from Berridale to Rafter’s Rest at St Margaret’s Bay. These days the experience isn’t quite as exclusive as it was when Mr. Flynn was running the show – the Rio Grande rafting trips are actually quite affordable as Jamaican tourism activities go – but if the moon is full, you can still pole onto the waters, which turn silver and unspeakably romantic.
Boston Bay
The best experiences in Jamaica are extremely sensory affairs, but Boston Bay may be the only one that is more defined by smell than sight or sound. Well, smell and taste: Boston Bay is the supposed birthplace of jerk, the spice rub that is Jamaica’s most famous contribution to the culinary arts. The turnoff to Boston Bay (itself a lovely beach) is lined with jerk stalls that produce smoked meats that redefine what heat and sweet can do as complementary gastronomic qualities. In plain English: it tastes freakin’ amazing.
Reggae Sumfest
If there’s any cultural trend that defines Jamaica to the rest of the world, it’s reggae music – quite literally the soundtrack of the island. And there is no bigger celebration of the island’s ‘riddims’ then Reggae Sumfest, held in Montego Bay in the middle of the broiling Jamaican summer. To be fair, the ocean breezes do cool things down, but you’ll still be sweating from the fires spewing out of homemade aerosol flamethrowers (ignited to signal a song is good), the throbbing mass of bodies and the nonstop dancing.
Crocodile-spotting in Black River Great Morass
This is one of our favorite ways of exploring wild Jamaica: setting off by boat in the Black River Great Morass, gliding past spidery mangroves and trees bearded with Spanish moss, whilst white egrets and anhinga flap overhead. Your tour guide may tell you about the local women who sell bags of spicy shrimp on the riverside, and then point to a beautiful, grinning American crocodile, cruising by.
Jamaica is a well known island for vacationing for many reasons. Its beautifull beaches, colourful people and the relaxed way of life are just a few of the reasons to keep you coming back.
