  • Rivers and Waterfalls Tours

    Tour the biggest and best waterfalls and rivers in Jamaica including trips to any of these great locations.

    Mayfield Falls

    Mayfield Falls is my personal favorite waterfalls for fun and swimming especially if children are involved. I recommend this park and trip over YS Falls if you wish to make a full day of waterfalls and water adventures. You can read my full review on the Mayfield Falls Riverwalk by clicking here.

    YS Falls

    YS Falls has taller and more beautiful waterfalls with large pools for swimming and a really cool Zip line canopy adventure that is lots of fun for adults but not as much so for younger children. I would recommend this as an extreme adventure for those looking for the thrill of the zip line or for those not interested in walking directly in the river as you ascend to the top.

    Roaring Rivers

    Roaring rivers is located just outside of Sav La Mar and Negril. It appears to be the shortest drive to a mineral springs swim from Negril and it’s a beautiful area in the hills with lots of lush green space that just blows me away. My camera just foes not do justice the awesome sight of the surrounding mountains and the dense tropical vegetation of “the bush” as they call it there. Swimming at Roaring rivers is done either deep within an underground cave for the best in Jamaica healing mineral baths or up top in a larger spring fed reservoir used by locals to cool off in the hot Jamaican sun. They say 20 minutes in the spring fed lagoon will kep you cool all day long and I can believe it. It was a great time and I have been back three times since it’s so much fun. Tourists are charged $20 for access to the cave by the Roaring Rivers Development Association and for a days relaxation in the drinkable waters its a deal. Local lunch packages and more available upon request.

    Dunns Rivers Falls

    Dunns River is a must do for many but the high level of tourist use and the number of cruise ships that dump a zillion people in a herd is uncomfortable to say the least. The trips for those visitors is designed to get them up the hill and down as fast and safe as possible, They are not as interested in you spending the day at Dunns River and enjoying the full facilities. Many never visit the great beach at Dunns River or take time to sample some local food with a nice meal at the restaurant but there is much more to do at Dunns than just the falls.

    Black River Safari

    The Black River isone of them most beautiful and historic rivers in Jamaica. Black River is one of the oldest developed cities in Jamaica with lots of culture and history. Enjoy a cruise down the Black River and see the bountiful Jamaican Wildlife including exotic birds and the rare Jamaican Crocodile.
