A Guide to Adventure Travel in Jamaica
Locations
This island might have more churches per square mile than any other country, but it also has more opportunities for adrenaline-racing activities than most! For such a small landmass, Jamaica holds its own, both in land and sea adventures.
Jamaica’s capital, Kingston, serves as the cultural and culinary hub of the island and houses most Jamaica tour companies. The spirit of Bob Marley lives on in his former home and among the many reggae festivals, so there’s no shortage of opportunities to wail out a redemption song. If you’re yearning for the pirate’s life, check out the remains of the real Port Royal. Earthquakes might have flattened this former seamen sanctuary to a quiet village, but remains of the people who put fear into the Spanish fleet can still be found underwater if you dive deep enough.
For more water-based adventure trips in Jamaica, indulge in the tropical vibe of northern and western Jamaica. The northern part of the island is home to several beaches that served as the backdrops of some movie classics (Dr. No or Blue Lagoon anyone?), while the west is home to the Martha Brae River. It was here that acting legend Errol Flynn introduced bamboo river rafting. His late night antics are now a major part of Jamaica’s tourism industry, and you can try your own hand at navigating through the old Arawak witch’s waters.
While Jamaica’s coasts boast narrow plains, the interior is dominated by mountains. The mighty Blue Mountain range dominates the eastern part of the country and offers a look into the island’s agriculture. For tireless hikers, there’s even a hiking trail that’ll let you take a peek into Cuba! Who knew Jamaica adventures could be so cool, mon!?
