Rute

1. Nine Mile is known for being the birthplace of the legendary reggae king Robert Nesta ‘Bob’ Marley. It is located in the rural countryside in the parish of St. Ann, a few miles south of Brown’s Town. It is accessed via deep, winding roads and it is where Bob Marley’s body lies in the Marley Mausoleum. Bob Marley was born in a small cottage in this small rural town and lived here until he was thirteen years old. The inspiration for many of his songs came from his memories growing up in the village. It is also where his ‘rock pillow’ which he often lay his head on when seeking inspiration is located. Some of the guides are relatives and friends of the reggae legend and perform renditions of his songs as a part of the tour. They tell you stories of how Bob grew up and things he did as a child. They show you the home he grew up in and many of his personal effects including his guitar and his favorite chair.

2. Dunn's River Falls is one of Jamaica's national treasures. Globally, it is as well-known as Reggae and equally stimulating. There are few places where the Arawak name "Xayamaca" - land of rivers and springs - is more apt. The Spaniards called the area "Las Chorreras" - the waterfalls or springs - and it is truly one of the most beautiful spots on the island. A stone's throw from Ocho Rios, one of Jamaica's fastest growing resort centres, Dunn's River Falls is unique. Described as a living and growing phenomenon, it continuously regenerates itself from deposits of travertine rock, the result of precipitation of calcium carbonate from the river, as it flows over the falls. The small dome-shaped cataracts are usually associated with thermal spring activity found in limestone caves. This, combined with its location near to the sea, gives Dunn's River the distinction of being the only one of its kind in the Caribbean, if not the world.

3. Scotchie’s Montego Bay is the no-frills, casual eatery that allows visitors to get the real taste of Jamaica. The rustic, yet comfortable booths allow for great family vibes while enjoying freshly jerked chicken or pork as well as delicious side dishes. Fish is prepared to order and soups of the day complement any meal. Cool the spices with coconut water, local juices or the island’s famous Red Stripe beer. However you slice, bite or sip it, Scotchie’s is sure to please your palate. Scotchies Ocho Rios is located conveniently between Ocho Rios and Runaway Bay. That’s about an 1hr 25mins away by car from the Montego Bay Airport and a mere 20min journey from the Ocho Rios Cruise Ship Port. The decor of the place is rustic but classy, and the backdrop is the crystal waters of the Caribbean Ocean. The vibe is enhanced by the brilliant sun and warm sea breeze. These factors conspire to create the ideal place for Jerk or local cuisine on the island.

About Ocho Rios

Ocho Rios er en frodig badeby på Jamaicas nordkyst, kendt for vandfald, floder, tropiske haver og turkise bugter.

Dunn's River Falls er den berømte seværdighed, en række kalkstenskaskader, som besøgende klatrer op ad hånd i hånd fra stranden, gennem sprøjtet. I nærheden tilbyder Blue Hole, en kæde af junglebassiner og fald, rebgynger og klippespring, og skovklædte bakker over byen bærer ziplines og en stolelift gennem trætoppene.
