The Caribbean sun hits your shoulders as you step onto the cool, moss-slick limestone steps of Dunn's River Falls, where water pushes you forward and the sea waits at the bottom. The falls tumble in terraced cascades roughly 600 feet long, forming natural pools and walkable ledges that reward steady footing with splash-filled views and a white-sand cove for a quick swim.
