More ways to explore the area's outdoor wonders
The tour begins with a coastal drive out of Ocho Rios, the van easing past sugarcane fields and a green fringe of rainforest until the sound of water takes over. At the Blue Hole the limestone pools glitter a vivid azure; waterfalls thread down mossy steps and a rope swing dares you to let go. Later, Konoko Falls Park opens a quieter chapter—river gardens, interpretive displays and a gentle climb behind smaller cascades that reward you with views over the bay.
