Montego Bay

Dance to the beat of Jamaicas lively reggae music in Montego Bay, known as "Mobay". If you enjoy sunbathing and great swimming, try popular Doctors Cave Beach; or Cornwall Beach, an underwater marine park, offers you an exciting treat. Or sample the rum at a distillery along the Governors Coach Tour, a 40-mile railroad trip. For something really different, try rafting down the Martha Brae on a bamboo raft.

Attractions

Jamaica has some of the most beautiful beaches in the world. And Rose Hall Beach Club is a perfect example. White sand and crystal-clear water make this secluded private beach well worth its $8 admission fee. You'll find beach bars and restaurants, an open-air dance area, showers, restrooms, volleyball courts and a full watersports program.

Adventures

Play a round of golf at the beautiful Wyndham Rose Hall Golf & Beach Resort (featuring a waterfall at the 15th green) or one of the many other wonderful courses in the area.

Shopping

Montego Bay has phenomenal savings on designer jewelry and giftware. The best duty-free shopping in Mo' Bay is at the City Centre shopping area and at the Half Moon Shopping Village. With some of the best prices in the entire Caribbean on jewelry and fine watches, "duty-free savings" is the phrase to use when describing the shopping in this port. For best buys on jewelry, look for diamonds, tanzanite and other gemstones, as well as gold. The best names in watches can be found here, including Movado, Raymond Weil, and Tissot, at prices recognized as some of the lowest in the Caribbean. Be sure to pick up some of Jamaica's world-famous Blue Mountain coffee and rum, as well as local art and unique T-shirts.
