Falmouth

With the biggest sugar port, Falmouth, is the ideal first step to exploring Jamaica. It is located on the Northern coast of the island in the Parish of Trelawney with Montego Bay to the West and Ocho Rios to the east, the tropical forest of Cockpit Country to the southwest (a nature reserve inhabited by yellow snakes, butterflies and various bird species).

The picturesque town of Falmouth was a true economic engine and at the center of a significant social upheaval during the English colonial period. The town was built in 1769 according to carefully planned criteria, with all the comforts of a sewer system that even New York did not have. The architecture is particularly noteworthy, with the Courthouse, the waterfront, and the buildings, which are UNESCO world heritage sites.

Enjoy a walk through the historic center of Falmouth, where tourists can still admire 19th century Georgian architecture, enjoy local art and crafts, taste delicious local specialities and tour the town by carriage. It’s possible to practice diving, snorkeling and swimming with dolphins. Inside the island there are many volcanic caves that formed a long time ago and are known for their natural beauty. Whatever you choose to do, your stay will truly be unforgettable.
