From the astonishing range of physical terrain and lush jungle, to our beautiful white sand beaches, majestic waterfalls and rich history, Jamaica truly has a lot to offer!
According to the Mobil Travel Guide,
"If you're cruising in the Caribbean, chances are you'll drop anchor in Jamaica at some point. More cruise boats sail through these waters than anywhere else on Earth, and half of them visit Jamaica each year— making it the most popular cruise destination in the world.
Be it the reggae music or the jerk chicken, the smiles on the faces of locals or the insanely perfect weather, this Caribbean isle provides the same type of hospitality that you'll find onboard — the playground is just bigger".
So what are some of the exciting shore tours you can get involved in?
The range is extensive but it includes historical tours, safari adventures, river rafting and tubing, horseback riding, canopy adventures and waterfalls.

Whether you disembark at Montego Bay, Ocho Rios or Port Antonio there is more than enough to excite you on shore. Grab a trusted tour guide and enjoy any of these popular tours:
- Dolphin Cove Attraction:
The largest maritime attraction in the Caribbean, this is a true family attraction. You can interact with our amazingly friendly dolphins by choosing either a touch, swim dorsal pull or foot push program.
You can also wander the trail in the lost jungle and interact with birds, snakes, iguanas if you wish.
- Rockland's Bird Santuary:
This bird sanctuary offers guests the opportunity to hand-feed finches and doves and interact with Jamaican doctor birds.
- Dunn's River Falls:
Truly no trip or vacation to our beautiful island is complete without climbing this majestic waterfall!
- Rose Hall Great House:
This famous plantation home just east of Montego Bay has a rich Jamaican history, including slavery, witchcraft, and murder, events which have led to many ghostly legends.
- Bob Marley's Nine Miles:
Nine Miles is the birth place of our late great reggae superstar, Bob Marley and is also his final resting place.
But more than that, the trip also takes you through various villages where you can learn quite a lot about rural Jamaica- the real Jamaica!
- And lot's more! Please see the places to visit, things to do, and attractions in Jamaica in Jamaica for even more options.
For many, Jamaica is the definitely the ultimate port of call for the many Western Caribbean Cruises, which typically last for seven days or more.
