Port Antonio

Free entry · Verified

Port Antonio sits on the wet eastern end of Jamaica, backed by the Blue Mountains and the Rio Grande valley. Bamboo rafting on the river, the Blue Lagoon and a string of small beaches make up the draw, with far fewer visitors than Negril or Montego Bay. Rain is frequent, which is what keeps the area so green.

Landmark

Blue Lagoon

Entrance fee not recorded yet

A deep coastal lagoon fed by cold freshwater springs beneath the sea water, changing colour through the day.
