Combine jungle pools and cliffside ziplines on a private full-day trip from Montego Bay. Swim at the Blue Hole, then ascend Mystic Mountain for ziplines and a bobsled-style ride through rainforest canopy.
More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
You step off the minivan and the rainforest opens — humid air pressing in, birds calling from a braided canopy, and water ahead that looks impossibly blue. The Blue Hole's pools glint between limestone ledges; ropes hang from overhanging branches daring you to swing. Later, the ridge of Mystic Mountain rises 700 feet above the coast, rainforest breathing around the ziplines and bobsled track that send you skimming past palms and ravines.
