The day begins at the roadside where the car windows blur into coastal palms and the Caribbean horizon holds steady: heat, sea, and the steady hiss of water. At Dunn’s River Falls the river dares you to climb — a staircase of travertine that has been laid down inch by patient inch — while guides call out footholds and the spray cools your neck.
