Waterfalls & Rivers

Reach Falls
One of the more exquisitely beautiful waterfalls in Jamaica. Located 15 miles into the hills it has a large swimming hole and lush vegetation

Somerset Falls
Located 10 minutes drive west of Port Antonio ( 40 minutes from Long Bay). This is a cool oasis with pretty gardens and picnic tables. The water falls from high up through a hole onto a rock far below. You can swim and dive in the pools.

Bath Fountain
About 45 minutes drive into the hills of neighboring St Thomas, this natural mineral Hot spring is well worth a visit. Either take a healing bath in the hotel or walk along the river and experience the hot water directly from the rocks. The water is rich in minerals and has many healing properties.

The best surfing beach is Boston Bay. Body boards & surf boards can be rented there or in Long Bay. Surfing lessons are available at both locations.

River rafting

The Rio Grande river is a beautiful place to spend the day. Bamboo rafts take you through the lush valley. Approx. 45 minutes drive west of Long Bay.
