All about Montego Bay
Montego Bay is an idyllic Caribbean vacation spot with year-round blue skies, white sandy beaches, and a vibrant nightlife on Jamaica’s North Coast. The famous Doctor’s Cave Beach lies at the heart of the city and features a historic bathing club overlooking a 300-metre stretch of sand with calm emerald waters patrolled by lifeguards. You can try parasailing and jet skiing or go snorkelling with colourful reefs to explore. Next door is the quiet Cornwall Beach with loungers for soaking up the sun, and Walter Fletcher Beach nearby is great fun, with a go-kart track and an aquatic park with blow-up slides.
Along the oceanfront is Gloucester Avenue, a two-mile strip of shops and restaurants with authentic jerk chicken. At night the strip is where you’ll find bars, reggae shows, and nightclubs where you can dance all night. Just off the coast is Montego Bay Marine Park, a protected area full of coral reefs and mangroves. A scuba diving or glass-bottom boat will take you to see swarms of tropical fish swimming around the reefs, including groupers, barracudas, and stripy sergeant majors.
What are the top things to do in Montego Bay?
Martha Brae River
Head 30 minutes inland to Martha Brae River where you can take a traditional bamboo raft journey through beautiful jungle scenery. You’ll sit on top of a double-seat throne on the raft decorated with colourful flowers while a guide steers you along a three-mile stretch of the calm river. Bars and shops are available to stop at along the way. There’s even a zipline if you fancy whizzing across the river.
