This is sightseeing as well as a food listing. This is one of the two restaurants by the same name and owner in the area. The food is delectable but do ensure you have time to spare as sometimes the wait is longer than standard, as demand is high and everything is done to order and perfectly. It is indeed, worth the visit...again make sure you are in no rush.

This is the nearest, newest and best supermarket that we recommend for our visitors. You should be able to get any amenities you need here. Inside there is a small flower shop and a section that displays amazing art.

You hand select your fish here, every thing is done to order and the smell and taste is superb just as expected at the Jolly’s in Portmore or with fish from Hellshire beach. But the convenience of Kingston.

This is a local favorite if you are into getting an off-the-beaten-track experience, non-touristy experience. Visit what remains of the famous and very important old city of Port Royal (known for wealth and debauchery). After enjoying the museum you can also stroll around what remains of the small town and will find many roadside food offerings. And if you are sophisticated, the very famous Gloria' seafood is also nearby with two separate restaurants for your convenience.

This is just a local favorite, a small but beautiful park, often with fountain displays and this very interesting artwork. Good for nice exercises outdoor as it has a walking trail.

I believe this place is only open on Sundays. If dubb and art is your sort of thing or you are open for a brand new experience, I recommend it. The location alone is breathtaking, as it is nestled where you can enjoy magnificent panoramic views of Kingston. The music is deep and cultural …. Plus more.

I love the drive to Port Royal for good food, but I enjoy even more getting on those boats and going to the magical Lime Cay for an afternoon in the beautiful aquamarine sea. I have brought my kid so really great time can be had for the whole family. Bring your own food and drink which you can purchase at Restaurants in Port Royal. Bring your drinks and igloo from Kingston.
